Celera Motion Veratus Series.
The automatic calibration feature of Veratus makes it easier for OEMs to get their system up and running quickly without any complicated set-up procedures, tools or additional electronic components.
Veratus is the first MicroE encoder built using the company's new VeraPath™ optical technology, to deliver more reliable signal stability and dirt immunity. VeraPath technology is designed to filter out signal disturbances caused by scratches, debris or contamination and effectively eliminates accuracy errors resulting from flatness variations typical with metal scales.
The results enable users to achieve high levels of accuracy with both metal tape, glass scales and make Veratus a more robust solution for long and short travel linear axes and for rotary axes.
Since all interpolation, automatic gain control and signal processing is performed in the sensor head, no additional special adaptors are required. Veratus is capable of resolutions down to 20 nanometers and is the smallest encoder system in its class, with a sensor body that is only 35 x 13.5 x 10mm (1.38 x 0.53 x 0.39”).
This technology with the availability of both digital and industry-standard 1 Vpp analog output, allow for use in applications including: precision linear and rotary positioning stages, coordinate measuring machines, optical scanning and inspection, medical robotics, laboratory and pharmacy automation, printed circuit board assembly and electronics packaging and industrial robotics.
Shipping now, Veratus will be available in OEM production quantities in March 2016.
