Buy online your Heidenhain LC495F ML 270mm Scale 12.5/50nm from our UK e-store Cnc-shopping UK, specialist in CNC machine-tools spare parts.

The LC495F-270MM from HEIDENHAIN is a high-precision sealed linear encoder designed to provide accurate position feedback for CNC machine axes. Part of the LC495F series, it is commonly used on machining centers, CNC lathes, and grinding machines where reliable closed-loop control and high positioning accuracy are essential.

Designed for demanding machine-tool environments, the LC495F features a sealed construction that protects the measuring system from coolant, chips, vibration, and other contaminants. By delivering stable, high-resolution position data to the CNC control, it helps ensure precise axis movements, consistent machining quality, and excellent repeatability during both roughing and finishing operations.

With a measuring length of 270 mm and fine resolution options of 12.5 nm/50 nm, depending on the interface and signal subdivision, this encoder supports tight contouring and smooth interpolation on modern CNC systems. It is typically installed within protected axis covers and integrated into machines using compatible HEIDENHAIN feedback interfaces.

The LC495F-270MM is frequently used as a replacement or retrofit component to correct positioning errors, encoder alarms, following faults, or homing inconsistencies caused by damaged scales or contaminated scanning systems. Manufactured in Germany, it is valued for its durability, accuracy, and long service life in industrial applications.

For replacement projects, it is important to verify the measuring length, mounting dimensions, interface type, cable configuration, connector style, and scanning head arrangement to ensure full compatibility with the existing installation. Its reliability and precision make it a popular choice for maintenance teams seeking to reduce downtime and maintain the performance of CNC equipment.

Frequently asked questions about LC495F-270MM:

How do I confirm compatibility with my CNC control?
Check the existing encoder’s interface, connector type, cable orientation and measuring length, then match these details with the LC495F-270MM. If the control requires a specific HEIDENHAIN interface, confirm it against the encoder label and the machine’s documentation before ordering.

What does 12.5/50 nm indicate on this scale?
These values refer to fine measuring steps achievable by the encoder and the control’s subdivision. Verify the intended resolution and interface settings on your CNC so the scale and controller operate with the expected position granularity.

Is the LC495F suitable for coolant-heavy environments?
The LC495F is a sealed linear encoder intended for machine-tool conditions when installed within the proper axis covers. Correct mounting, alignment and sealing inside the axis enclosure are important to maintain reliability.

What should be checked when replacing a damaged linear scale?
Match the measuring length, mechanical mounting footprint, reference mark orientation, connector style and cable exit. After installation, verify signal quality and homing behavior on the CNC to ensure stable positioning.

Can this unit be used in retrofit projects?
Yes, provided the interface, length and mounting align with the retrofit plan and the target CNC accepts HEIDENHAIN-compatible linear feedback. It is commonly used in rebuilds where precise axis feedback is required.
