PurePrecision Tape Scales<br />
CUT TO LENGTH OR PRE-CUT TAPE SCALES<br />
The Best Tape Scale Solution Available<br />
PurePrecision Marker Tape<br />
and Laser Tape scales set the<br />
standard for flexibility and<br />
ease of use. Order tape with<br />
built-in index and limit*<br />
markers, or cut any length<br />
needed from a coil and apply<br />
stick-on markers. There are<br />
no index magnets to install<br />
and adjust. Adhesive-mount<br />
PurePrecision tape scale has<br />
a 20µm pitch and is available in lengths up to 30 meters.<br />
* Limits available on MII 6000 and MII 5000 models<br />
Easy Tape Installation<br />
Simply feed the tape scale into<br />
the installation tool and roll it<br />
out along a benching edge to<br />
perform adhesive mounting.<br />
The tape can then be epoxied<br />
at its ends, matching it to the<br />
thermal response of the<br />
substrate. Mounting is that<br />
simple. PurePrecision tape scale<br />
is made of nickel alloy for corrosion resistance, immunity to cleaning<br />
solvents and long-term reliable performance.<br />
CHOOSE FROM BUILT-IN OR STICK-ON INDEX AND LIMITS<br />
Built-In Markers<br />
PurePrecision Marker Tape<br />
has built-in index and limit<br />
marks to speed installation.<br />
Manufactured into the tape<br />
scale to your specifications<br />
using a laser etch process,<br />
installation of the tape scale<br />
is reduced to one simple step:<br />
just apply the adhesive-mount<br />
tape scale to your system’s<br />
mounting surface and you are<br />
done. There is no need to<br />
mount index or limit markers<br />
Enlargement showing built-in index<br />
or magnets. The laser-written<br />
marks are placed in the exact locations you specify – index location,<br />
number of index marks and limit mark lengths can all be specified at<br />
the time of ordering. PurePrecision Marker Tape may be ordered in<br />
pre-cut lengths for the fastest installation, or in continuous form for<br />
cutting at your site.<br />
tape scale and then stick on the markers. The stick-on markers even<br />
work on linear glass scales.<br />
Mercury II’s stick-on optical index<br />
SMALLEST TAPE SCALE SYSTEM AVAILABLE<br />
USE GLASS SCALES WHEN YOU NEED:<br />
• Highest accuracy – to ±1µm<br />
• Uniform thermal behavior<br />
• Ultra-smooth velocity control<br />
Index magnet used by other encoders<br />
Unlike other encoders, Mercury II’s optical index and limits require<br />
no additional space. They mount directly on the 6mm wide tape<br />
scale - no unwanted magnets or mounting hardware taking up space.<br />

Mercury II<br />
Stick-On Markers<br />
PurePrecision Laser Tape works with Mercury II ’s stick-on index and<br />
limit markers when the flexibility and inventory savings of cut-tolength<br />
capability is required. Stick-on index and limit markers can be<br />
placed anywhere in seconds: there is no need to mix epoxy or drill<br />
holes to mount bulky magnets or limit switches. Just apply the<br />
Mercury II’s 20µm pitch glass scales are available in lengths from<br />
10mm to 1m and rotary diameters up to 121mm. Custom scales are<br />
also available for OEM orders – special thicknesses, widths, rotary<br />
arc segments, and specialized materials such as near-zero CTE<br />
glass. Linear glass scales can have built-in or stick-on index and<br />
limit markers.<br />
