1. Features and Applications
Position encoders in drive systems have to meet high and controversial demands, especially in linear
drive systems. The demands opposing each other are high accuracy and resolution on the one hand
and low mass, small dimensions and high measuring speed on the other hand.
• Thegraduatedscaleisdenitiveforthequalityofalinearencoder.Requirementsformaximum
position deviations of ±2 μm per meter or less are no rarity. The emphasis is mostly on the
avoidance of shortrange errors, since long-range errors, mostly linear error components, can often
be compensated.
• The concentration of multiple axes in motion in very tight spaces, such as in semiconductor-
producing machines, requires the miniaturization of the drives, guideways and encoders.
• High machining speeds and therefore high accelerations make low masses of the components in
motion essential.
The LIA incremental encoders from NUMERIK JENA are equipped with features which are supposed
tofulllthesehighrequirementsinanidealway.
• Due to an interpolation circuitry which is integrated in a 15-pin D-sub connector or in the scanning
head, a resolutions down to 50 nm is possible without any additional electronics.
• The permissible traversing speed for a sinusoidal signal output amounts to 10 m/s. A Square wave
signaloutputwitharesolutionof0.1μmallowsapermissibletraversingspeedof1.6m/s.
• Theshort-rangepositionerrors(interpolationerrors)weresignicantlyreducedbyintroducingan
electronic compensation of amplitude and offset deviations of the coarse signals. This compensation
functions without following error in all velocity ranges.
Additional features:
• Referencesignal(s)withrepeatabilityaccuratetoaspecicincrement,regardlessofthedirection
from which the reference mark(s) is/are traversed
• Compact size and large mounting tolerances
• Highresistancetocontaminationdueto2-eldscanning
• Possibility of electronic signal adjustment (signal optimization after mounting)
• Optional, additional optical switch sensor integrated in the scanning head (LIA 21)
• Special, easy to mount scale tapes (SINGLEFLEX and DOUBLEFLEX) for a variety of applications
and ambient conditions
Applications:
• Production and inspection machines for the semiconductor industry
• Linear units, drives and coordinate tables
• Measuring machines and measuring microscopes
• Positioning and measuring devices for medical technology
• Precision devices for reprography
• Precision machining
• Robotics

2.3 Notes on Transport, Storage and Handling
Encoder
• Use the original packaging for transportation only!
• If possible, use the original packaging for storage only.
SINGLEFLEX scale tape
• Can be rolled up (minimum bending radius = 140 mm).
• No restrictions regarding to the length.
DOUBLEFLEX scale tape
• In no case the DOUBLEFLEX scale tape should be stored, transported or used when rolled up!
• Use only the original packaging for transportation!
- Lengths up to 3 m - stretched out
- Lengthsabove3m-tapelaiddownasagureeight
• Use the original packaging for storage only!
• Damages to the adhesive layer between the scale tape and carrier tape must absolutely be avoided,
since otherwise the measuring properties of the DOUBLEFLEX scale tape are lost.
• Only remove the DOUBLEFLEX scale tape from the packaging on site, directly before mounting.
• Do not separate the scale tape and carrier tape from each other! Avoid any unintentional separation
of the scale tape from the carrier tape, even just partial separation.
• Avoidradialoraxialoffsettingbetweenthescaletapeandcarriertape.
• If the scale tape should become partially or completely separated from the carrier tape - even
for just a very short time - simply pressing them together again will not result in sufcient
adhesion. In this case neither the operational reliability nor the metrological properties can
be guaranteed anymore. Please return the scale tape to NUMERIK JENA GmbH for repair!
Unfortunately a repair at the customer site is not possible.
• WhenremovingtheDOUBLEFLEXscaletapefromthepackaging,thesagmustnotexceedmore
than 100 mm.
• After removing the greatest distance between two supports must not be more than 800 mm. Scale
tapesupto1,200mmmustbesupportedapprox.300mmfromtheendsandlongerscaletapes
must be supported correspondingly.

3. Functional Elements
3.1 Online Compensation (Offset and Amplitude Control)
Contamination and mounting errors lead to interferences in the optical scanning of the scale by the
scanning head and so to periodic deformations of the sinusoidal counting track signals, which are
exempliedas
• Offset deviations
• Amplitude deviations
• Amplitude differences between the sine and cosine channels
and lead to interpolation errors.

Through the offset and amplitude control the signals generated by the measuring module are
automatically corrected within the sensor without following error over the entire velocity range.
This measure not only increases the accuracy, but also the reliability of the encoder.
3.2 Switch Sensor
The use of a switch sensors results in no additional switches being needed. This saves cable material
and time for installation. The opto-electronic switch sensor integrated in the LIA 21 scanning head can
be used
• to detect limit positions with left/right distinction,
• to indicate the scanning head position within the measuring range or
• to enable a reference mark (selection of one reference mark from n marks)
It is also possible to combine these variations.
The switch sensor can be used universally depending on the various output settings (order options):
• TTL low active or TTL high active
• Open Collector low active or Open Collector high active
• MOS relay opening or closing to 300 V switching voltage

3.3 Switch Foil
In order to use the switch signals, a switch foil must also be applied. The guide tape is intended for use
as the carrier for the switch foil(s). At least one guide tape is necessary for this. If no guide tapes are
used,areectingfoilmustbeusedasthecarrierfortheswitchfoil.
If the scale tape is mounted in a slot or along an edge, the switch foil can be stuck on the machine
elementtogetherwiththereectingfoil.
The surfaces of the switch foil and the scale tape must be at the same level!
Firstthereectingfoilisgluedontothescaletapecarrierovertheentiremeasuringlength.Thenthe
switchfoilisgluedtothereectingfoil.
Whetherusingguidetapesorthereectingfoilasswitchfoilcarrier,therearetwooptionsformounting
the switch foil:
1. Precise Mounting
- Achievable accuracy: ±1 mm
- Reproducibility of the switch signal: ±0.1 mm
2. Reference to a Machine Datum
- Minimization of the position deviation of the switch signal with the aid of the
evaluation electronics
- Achievable accuracy of the position signal: ±0.7 mm
- Reproducibility of the switch signal: ±0.1 mm

4. Technical Data
4.1 Resolution and Accuracy (Denition)
Basically one has to differentiate between the resolution and the accuracy of a measuring system. The
two parameters are not directly interdependent and may differ from each other.
Resolution
The resolution of linear system describes the least possible displacement of scanning head against the
scale which can still be discerned by the evaluation electronics (display, control). It depends on (see
chart 1)
• the graduation period of the scale
• thesignalintepolationfactor(internallyorinauxiliaryelectronicunit)
• the evaluation mode in the counter
Accuracy
Theaccuracyoflinearmeasuringsystemsisspeciedinaccuracyclasses.
Theextremeerrorvaluesforanymax.one-metersectionofthemeasuredlengthliewithinthespecied
accuracy class of ±aμmwithrespecttotheirmeanvalue.
For measuring length up to 1 m, the tolerance (±aμm)referstotheactualmeasuringlengths.The
accuracy applies to a reference temperature of 20°C.
Withexposedlinearmeasuringsystems,thedenitionoftheaccuracyclassappliesonlytothescale.
This is called scale accuracy.

4.3 SINGLEFLEX and DOUBLEFLEX Scale Tape
The steel scale tapes from NUMERIK JENA are available in two different versions:
•SINGLEFLEX
•DOUBLEFLEX (not suitable for vacuum applications)
SINGLEFLEX
The SINGLEFLEX-scale tape consists of a single steel tape with an applied incremental track and one
or more reference marks. The scale tape is equipped with a double-sided adhesive tape and can be
mounted easily on the machine element.
DOUBLEFLEX
The DOUBLEFLEX-scale tape consists of two superimposed steel tapes. Both of them are divided by
a tension uncoupled sheen of oil which ensures the adhesion between the steel tapes. The incremental
track and one or more reference marks are applied on the upper steel tape. The lower steel tape is
equipped with a double-sided adhesive tape and can be mounted easily on the machine element.
Thetwosteeltapesareuncoupledmechanically.Thisensuresthattheuppersteeltapecanexpand
independently of the lower steel tape due to thermal variations of the ambient temperature. By
referenceoftheambienttemperatureandtheexpansioncoefcientofthesteeltapeitispossibleto
determine occurring length deviation of the increments. This allows to substract out the deviation of the
measurement results.

4.6 Switch-On Behaviour
During power-up procedure of the encoder system the level of power voltage and
signal lines must be below 250 mV.
If the encoder system will be powered-up at a residual voltage between a range of 250 and 400 mV,
internal sensor parameter will not set correctly. This will lead to incorrect encoder signals.
This behaviour has to be observed especially during reset routines of controllers.
4.7 Attainable Traversing Speed
The maximum attainable traversing speed of the encoder is determined by the maximum output
frequency of the interpolator and/or the maximum counting frequency of the operator‘s evaluation
electronics.
In order to avoid counting errors, the interpolator‘s output frequency is matched to the counting
frequencyoftheoperator‘sevaluationelectronics.
This adaptation is possible in discrete frequency steps.
Themaximumattainabletraversingspeed(vmax) is calculated according to the following formula:
vmax = f · TP [m/s]
i · SF · 4
f Clock frequency of the counter [MHz]
TP Grating period [µm]

4.9 Cable
Scanning Head Cable (connection cable from scanning head to D-Sub connector)
• Please mount the scanning head preferably on the rigid part and the scale tape on the mobile part
of the machine. If this is not possible, provide a strain relief for the cable near the scanning head.
• The encoder cables and connecting cables must be laid away from sources of interference (e.g.
mainscables,fuses,motors,magneticvalvesorpowersupplies).Normallyadistanceof≥100mm
willbesufcient.
• Install the cable in a way that it cannot be damaged by the moving carriage. Please pay attention
to the permissible bending radius (see also point 4.2)!
Extension Cable (connection cable from D-Sub connector to controller)
• UsepreferablyoriginalextensioncablesmadebyNUMERIKJENA.Thisguaranteesanoptimum
compatibility with the encoders and ensures a maximum protection against electromagnetic
interferences.
• PleaseconsultthetechnicalsupportofNUMERIKJENAbeforeusingselfmanufacturedextension
cables.
• Do not install any other signal lines in the encoder cable!
