Why is ProScale better than optical measuring systems?
Unlike optical measurement systems, the accuracy of capacitive and inductive measuring systems are not affected by sawdust or other non-conductive contaminants. Additionally, power consumption is much less than optical measurement systems, which enables ProScale to operate on standard batteries for many months (and makes installation much easier). Also, ProScale is a solid-state electronic device, so there’s very little to wear out. The encoder and scale are designed to withstand shop dirt, dust, and other airborne contaminants, and the controls are sealed with a protective cover for long life.
