RE: glass scale alignment

on 2006-04-29 20:45:04 UTC
Hello,
I have a pair of ' Metric 01 MM ' glass scales and I can't get the reading
head aligned properly with the glass scale so that it will output a reliable

signal. I can move the head along the scale by hand and it seems to read
accurately but I can't find that sweet spot when I put it back on to it's
bracket. The bracket doesn't appear to be bent or loose. Would anyone know
how to set up the reader head alignment.
cheers,
Denis


I put on a set of 1um glass scales last week! Normal for many of these
scales is a gap of 0.040 to 0.060" between bottom of encoder base and top of
scale. Scale should be leveled to within 0.005" or less.
