Global Optical Scales Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025
Research Summary
Optical scales are precise measuring devices used to determine linear displacement or position with high accuracy. They are based on optical principles and typically consist of a glass or plastic scale with fine, evenly spaced markings and a readout head equipped with a light source and a photosensitive sensor. As the scale moves, the readout head detects variations in the transmitted or reflected light, converting these changes into position information. Optical scales are known for their exceptional precision, reliability, and resistance to environmental factors such as dust and moisture, making them valuable in applications where high-precision measurement is essential, including machine tools, coordinate measuring machines, and optical encoders. They provide a non-contact and durable solution for measuring distances and ensuring the precise positioning of machinery and industrial equipment.
