IMPROVE ACCURACY AND PRODUCTIVITY BY USING


DIGITAL READOUT SYSTEMS
In a competitive market, using the latest technology to improve your productivity is
essential. Adding a Digital Readout and Linear Encoders is one of the best ways to
make a machine tool more profitable.
The productivity and value of your machine tool will be increased when using
an RSF Elektronik Digital Readout and Linear Encoders.
Regardless of the machine tool, old or new, standard or special use,
RSF Elektronik has the Digital Readout and Linear Encoders
for your machine and application.

Advantages of using
Digital Readout Systems
from RSF Elektronik

Digital Readouts from RSF Elektronik can be mounted quickly and easily
to your machine tool. Installation is simple using available mounting hardware.
The Digital Readout displays the exact tool position at all times.
No longer does the machine operator need to count handwheel turns or keep
track of the dial position.
Linear Encoders from RSF Elektronik measure the machine travel
directly at the machine guideway. Lead screw error and backlash have
no influence on the measuring accuracy.
If your have questions during the Digital Readout or Linear Encoder installation,

THE DIGITAL READOUT SYSTEM


Components of a complete
Digital Readout System

The system consists of one or more Linear Encoders, commonly referred to as


scales, and a Digital Readout. The Linear Encoder measures the machine travel
and the Digital Readout (sometimes called a DRO) displays the distance moved
or machine table position to the operator.

Core elements of
RSF Elektronik
Linear Encoders

A Linear Encoder consists of two components:


1. the scale (extrusion/glass combination) and
2. the scanning head (reading head).
The scale unit consists of a high accuracy graduation pattern printed on glass spar.
A metal extrusion holds and protects the glass. Special shaped rubber sealing lips
in the extrusion keep out coolants and contamination. The scanning head has a dual
guided carriage to maintain alignment with the glass scale. The design of the scanning
head carriage allows for a large mounting tolerance without affecting the accuracy of
the scale. The glass scale is opto-electrically scanned using LEDs, photodiodes
and a reticle.

Operation mode of
RSF Elektronik
Digital Readout Systems

The opto-electronics in the Linear Encoder scanning head convert distance


movement into quadrature square-wave signals. These signals are transmitted to
the Digital Readout, which in turn displays the distance moved or table position.
Linear Encoders from RSF have reference index marks.
The reference index marks are a very useful features if the Digital Readout loses
power or if power is turned off. Linear Encoders from RSF Elektronik are also available
with distance-coded reference marks: after travelling 20 mm the absolute position will
be recalled on the display.

Mounting a Digital Readout


System on your machine

To get the best accuracy, a Linear Encoder


should be mounted as near as possible to
the machine guideway. When mounted at
guideway, the true guideway travel is
measured, without an ABBE offset error.
Neither lead screw error or backlash from
a sloppy ball nut or hand wheel has
any influence on the accuracy of the display
position. The Digital Readout is mounted to
the machine by a support arm/tray.
This allows the machine operator easy
access to the display for operation and
reading the display.

THE ADVANTAGES OF A DIGITAL READOUT SYSTEM


Advantages of a Digital
Readout System

In the past, the operator of a machine tool without a Digital Readout System
had to concentrate on reading and keeping track of the handwheel vernier dial.
After a brief review of the Digital Readout System operations manual, you will
immediately work faster with better accuracy. Scrapped and rejected
parts will be reduced.
The display shows the position in clear and bright digits.
Digital Readouts from RSF Elektronik have more features than just
displaying position. Refer to the specific models for a listing of the features.
The RSF Digital Readout has a waterproof keypad and a rugged metal housing
to ensure error free operation under harsh workshop conditions. Thread holes on
the housing floor enable a simple mounting.

Profitting from a
RSF Elektronik Digital
Readout System

Minimize your work time at the machine.


Reduce the scrap rate and save material.
Increase the accuracy and productivity of the machine.
Decrease the time to move to the next position up to 63%.
Investment pay back is achieved very fast.
Example: A milling machine with table travel of: 700x400x450 mm
The purchase and the mounting of the digital readout costs: about Euro 2.800,
Profit and production increasing: mind. 20%
Working time: 135 h/month
Machine costs per hour: Euro 60,/h

Economies from machine changes:

Z 300 OVERVIEW
The Digital Readout Z 300 is especially
suited for use on milling, drilling and boring
machines and lathes with up to three axes.
A separate I/O unit provides switching
input/outputs for simple tasks in
automation (optional: IFB 48).

Description

The Z 300 display unit is designed as


a sturdy upright unit with splash-proof
fulltravel keypad for use in a workshop.
It is equipped with a monochrome flat
screen for position values, dialog and input
displays, graphic functions and graphic
positioning support.

Functions

The Z 300 display unit is characterized


by its plain language dialog guidance.
The distance-to-go display facilitates
positioning. You approach the next position
quickly and reliably by simply traversing
until the display reads zero. The functions
for each application are easily activated by
parameter input. Special functions are
available for producing hole patterns
(linear patterns and circular patterns).
Datums can be determined quickly and
accurately with an edge finder.
The Z 300 readout supports you with
special probing functions.
You can easily switch between radius and
diameter display when the position display
is configured for turning. The readout also
offers support for lathes with separate top
slide: The sum display feature allows you
to display the saddle and top slides
together or separately. To set a datum,
touch the workpiece and freeze the tool
position. Then retract and measure
the workpiece.

Data interfaces

The Z 300 features an RS-232-C/V.24


serial interface for measured value transfer
to a PC or printer, for input/output of
parameters and compensation value lists
and for diagnostics.

Mounting

Z 300 is conceived as an upright unit.


Mounting possibilities:
Threaded mounting holes M6 and M8
on the housing floor
Mounting frame (optional)
Mounting frame (optional accessory)
ID 532 811-01
For mounting the digital readout in
a housing or operating panel.

Switching outputs

The IFB 48 features nine floating relay


outputs.
Readiness
The readiness output is at LOW level if
the Z 300 cannot operate the IFB
(e. g. not switched on, cable disconnected).
Switching functions (milling mode)
One or more switching ranges or switching
points can be defined for an axis.
Switch-off ranges lie symmetrically to
the 0 display value. If switching points are
used, the relay activates when the position
display reaches a specific value.
You can set whether
the switching function should apply to
the actual value or distance-to-go mode
the relay will open or close when
the condition is met
or the relay remains activated as
long as the switching condition is met
(continuous mode) or for a specified
duration (pulsed mode).

Analog output
Constant surface cutting speed CSS
(only in turning applications)
CSS provides spindle speed control as
the diameter of the workpiece changes.
A speed command signal is sent to the
inverter of the spindle motor via the analog
interface (DAC 0 V to 10 V) of the IFB 48.
The maximum and minimum permissible
spindle speeds can be specified.
In addition, a maximum of three operating
gears can be taken into account. The Z 300
recognize the current gear selection
by means of the switching inputs
of the IFB 48. CSS control can also be
started remotely (via an input to the CSS
board) with an external switch.
Controlling the spindle speed
(only in milling applications)
With the analog outputs, the speed of
the spindle on milling machines can be
controlled in an open controlled loop.
A spindle speed can be assigned to each
tool defined in the tool table. The speed can
be manually adapted during machining.
