Advanced Etched Encoder Discs for Mexican High-Speed Motion Sensing and Calibration

Advanced Etched Encoder Discs for Mexican High-Speed Motion Sensing and Calibration

Encoder Discs Overview

Encoder discs are high-precision metal discs with extremely fine patterns, used in optical and magnetic encoders to convert rotational position or motion into a digital signal. They are core parts for ensuring accuracy in motion control and measurement systems. Xinhaisen specializes in manufacturing custom metal encoder discs with exceptional precision and repeatability.

Manufacturing Process

We produce encoder discs using advanced chemical etching (photochemical machining). This process involves cleaning the metal, applying a photoresist, exposing it to UV light with your precise pattern design, developing, and then etching the pattern with chemical agents. This method is ideal for creating burr-free, stress-free parts without altering the material properties.

Encoder Discs Features

• Ultra-High Precision: Capable of producing extremely fine lines and micro-holes.

• Burr-Free & Stress-Free: The etching process eliminates mechanical stresses and burrs, ensuring smooth edges and accurate performance.

• No Material Hardness Change: Unlike stamping or laser cutting, etching does not affect the base metal's temper or magnetic properties.

• Rapid Prototyping & Production: Fast turnaround from design to mass production.

• Material Versatility: Can be etched from various alloys.

FAQ

Q1: What file format do you need for the encoder disc pattern?
A: We prefer vector-based formats like .DXF, .DWG, or .AI for the most accurate production.

Q2: Can you produce both optical and magnetic encoder discs?
A: Yes. We can etch patterns for optical systems and also process magnetic alloys (e.g., certain stainless steels) for magnetic encoder applications.

Q3: What is your typical lead time?
A: Prototypes can be delivered in as little as 5-7 days. Production lead times depend on order volume and are highly competitive.

Q4: Do you offer cleaning and packaging services for sensitive encoder discs?
A: Absolutely. We provide ultrasonic cleaning and anti-static, vacuum-sealed packaging to ensure parts arrive clean and undamaged.

Q5: Can you handle complex multi-layer or stepped designs?
A: For single-layer patterns, etching is perfect. For multi-layer or stepped designs, we can advise on the best manufacturing approach based on your specifications.
