Laser encoders deliver part-per-million accuracy on 40-meter X-axis during week-long machining cycles on Flow Corporation's Composites Machining Center.<br />
<br />
Flow International Corporation's Composites Machining Center (CMC) hits the mark for single-setup processing of 40-meter-long composite wing skins, and one of the keys to holding long-axis accuracy during week-long machining cycles is Renishaw's HS10/HS20 laser encoder. With the precision of a laser interferometer, the encoder and ...This story is related to the following:Sensors, Monitors and Transducers Sponsored by: BEI Sensors (BEI Industrial Encoders) - Cat Sponsor Jan 2014 ServicesSearch for suppliers of: 5 Axis Machining Centers | Composite Machining
