ACU-RITE Highlights

Digital Readouts

Digital readouts from ACU-RITE improve productivity, make your manually operated machine tools more profitable, and raise the quality of the machined workpiece. The large LCD display clearly shows the actual axis positions. The context-sensitive graphical user guidance makes working with digital readouts from ACU-RITE a pleasure. Together with the linear scales from ACU-RITE they form an economic and effective package solution for initial setup or retrofitting on your machine tool.

Linear Encoders

With more than one million in use today, ACU-RITE Precision Glass Scales withstand the elements of even the harshest machine shop environments. Built to resist changes in size, shape, or density due to temperature and humidity variations, this stability provides exceptional accuracy, resulting in tighter workpiece tolerances. ACU-RITE scales are available in travel lengths from 1″ – 120″ and in resolutions from 0.5μm (.00002″) to 5μm (.0002″).

CNC Control

The MILLPWRG2 control system is built with convenience in mind. From the exceptional clarity of a large full-color LCD display to the added advantage of full 3D contouring capabilities and menu-prompted conversational programming, essential functions are only a key stroke away. Use MILLPWRG2 as a full function digital readout system, a programmable CNC control, or both. It’s powerful enough to handle any job and easy enough for anyone to operate – no prior programming experience necessary.

Edge Control

ACU-RITE’s 3-D Electronic Edge Finder is designed for use with the 200S and 300S series readouts or the MILLPWRG2 2- and 3-axis control/3-axis readout system. This probe, mounted in the spindle, automatically zeros on contact with either conductive or nonconducting materials, increasing operator speed and accuracy when establishing datum (workpiece zero). This efficient, accurate tool accommodates a wide range of jobs, decreases setup times, and ensures precise, repeatable positioning.
