Description

ATOM DX is Renishaw’s smallest incremental optical encoder with digital output direct from the readhead.

A4L0Y00Z10F is a miniature incremental encoder readhead. RKLF40 scale is suitable for both partial arc and linear applications and is used in substrate mastered applications where the scale adopts the thermal expansion behaviour of the substrate for enhanced stability.

Top exit A4L0Y00Z10F is a component level encoder readhead with the cable assembly integrated separately, making it ideal for the most demanding space constrained applications and easy cable routing.

A4L0Y00Z10F Key Features / Benefits:

A4L0Y00Z10F has a resolution of 0.1 µm
A4L0Y00Z10F is compatible with RTLF40 and RKLF40 scales
A4L0Y00Z10F features a 10-way JST connector with optional cables available
A4A0X15A10F features a bi-directionally repeatable, customer selectable reference mark and an integrated 3-state alarm for enhanced safety

About the ATOM DX series of miniature digital encoders:

Miniature, all-in-one, digital output optical encoder with resolutions down to 2.5 nm
ATOM DX readheads combine Renishaw's market proven filtering optics, dynamic signal control and advanced interpolation technology. This provides low SDE, excellent dirt immunity, and eliminates the need for separate interfaces.
Integral set-up LED for simple installation and calibration
An optional Advanced Diagnostic Tool ADTi-100 (A-6195-0100) is available for real‑time encoder data feedback during installation or for in-field diagnostics
Available in two variants; cabled and top exit, for the most demanding space constrained installations
A CAD model of the ATOM DX readhead is available from the Renishaw website
