I used to be a fan of USD. I made my lathe encoders using their 2" disks and sensors and they are still working well. http://www.wallacecompany.com/cnc_lathe/HNC/00001-1a.jpg I still like the idea of using disks and sensors and making the rest but it's not nearly as cheap as it used to be. 1" Disk, 1000 CPR = $9 @ 50 qty Sensor = $25 @ 50 qty Then come up with housings = $? -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Don't Limit Your Business.
