About
HEIDENHAIN manufactures precision measurement and motion-control products for machine tools, electronics manufacturing and robotics. Its linear, rotary and angle encoders provide position feedback for motors, robot joints and precision axes.
The company also supplies CNC controls, probes and inspection equipment. In robotic systems its role is metrology and feedback, with accuracy, interface and mechanical integration determined by the selected encoder or control product.
HEIDENHAIN is a precision-feedback chokepoint for robotics. Encoders and measurement systems shape closed-loop control, joint accuracy, calibration, repeatability and safety margins in robots and high-end automation.
