It consists of a graduated scale track and a reader head assembly that generates digital position feedback signals. Commonly found in CNC mills, lathes, grinders, and coordinate measuring machines, it provides accurate linear displacement data to motion controllers for closed-loop positioning. The system requires proper alignment between the scale and reader head with a critical metal guide component maintaining the correct air gap for reliable operation.
