Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: DRO issue "HEDs in hand"

Jeff:
Its $85 for 600mm, $50 for 166-200mm lengths (asked about that length range
for my Y and Z axis).
Its a good thing you mentioned EncoderTech, I never did the math on the
metric scales, and only looked at the 720CPI scales but took them off my
list of possibles when they said that they did not have any longer than
3.25". With .0004" resolution and Don Mauch's method for protecting the
strips, it looks like I am good to go.

I am also a little confused by the math, the US Digital encoders and strips
can only quadrature out, giving the resolution as four times the lines per
inch of the scales, but Encoder Tech's encoders double the resolution and
then quadrature it? Seems a little strange to me, but if it works, it
works. What are you using to read the output of the encoder? Are you
getting .01mm resolution?
