Heidenhain ND500 series

Product Description

The position displays of the ND 500 series are suited for use on manually operated milling, drilling, boring machines and lathes with two or three axes. Due to the TTL encoder input, primarily the LS 328 and LS 628 linear encoders with a measuring step of 5 μm are used.

Description
With its sturdy housing and splash-proof membrane keyboard, the ND 500 is built for the workshop. The ND 500 series shows display position values, the soft-key row and other useful information on a monochrome graphic screen.

Functions
The most important functions are available quickly and directly via function keys. Soft keys with clear information in the local language enable you to make entries that fit your momentary situation. The distance-to-go display facilitates positioning. You approach the next position quickly and reliably by simply positioning until the display reads “zero.” The functions for each application are easily activated by parameter input. Special functions are available for producing hole patterns (linear patterns and circular patterns). You can easily switch between radius and diameter display when the position display is confi gured for turning. On lathes with a separate top slide, the sum display feature of the ND 523 allows you to display the saddle and top slides together or separately. Setting datums on a lathe part is particularly easy with the freeze tool position function and subsequent retracting.

Data interfaces
A USB interface enables the digital readout to transfer measured values and import
