ZS Instruments DR300/DR400 series of Digital Readout Displays and Linear Glass Scales are proudly designed, manufactured, and assembled in the USA. The DR series of Digital Readouts provides up to 4-axis position readouts for milling machines, lathes, horizontal boring mills, surface grinders, OD grinders, and other manufacturing machinery. Through advanced functions such as probing, bolt hole patterns, multi-plane radius/incline milling, and directional tool compensation, our DRO systems simplify even the most complex machining operations.
Quality and Reliability
ZS Instruments’ manufacturing and Quality Control processes ensure that our products not just meet, but exceed customers’ expectations. We strongly believe that industrial electronics should last a lifetime like it used to. That’s why all of ZS products conform to stringent IPC-A-610 class III high-reliability requirements for design, assembly, and inspection of electronics.
Our Circuits Boards are made very unique in industry – at first they are fully defluxed to remove any harmful corrosive residues, followed by receiving a layer of Conformal Coating, practice typically used for Military & Aerospace devices. Taking this extra step significantly improves resistant to metal dust, moisture, aggressive vapors, and fungus.
Advanced Optical Technology
Unlike their magnetic and/or inductive counterparts, glass scales and rotary encoders are not compromised in the presence of metal dust or magnetic fields. Only optical technology can provide native 5µm (0.0002’’) resolution without relying on approximation and ensure consistent levels of high precision over their entire lifespan.
