HEIDENHAIN Corp. announces the release of its next generation testing device, the PWT 100. The PWT 100 is a compact standalone device used for checking the function and adjustment of HEIDENHAIN encoders, and is ideal for mobile use.
The new PWT 100 incorporates a 4.3-inch touchscreen used for display and operation, along with supporting multiple serial interfaces such as EnDat 2.2, FANUC serial interface, Mitsubishi high-speed interface, and Panasonic serial interface upon release. Further feedback options, along with incremental signals, will become available in the future through software expansions and firmware updates.
The PWT 100 supports a variety of functions depending on the encoder or the interface. For encoders with EnDat interface, for example, the PWT is capable of displaying position values, enables the user to read out the online diagnostics, shift datums and use further inspection functions.
