We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Digital Readout",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Inspection is key to consistent quality from
ACI (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Digital readout systems help Rotary Precision Instruments UK maintain its reputation for the supply of high precision rotary table solutions".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Pressure transmitter takes dual role from
Sensor-Technik UK: "A novel pressure-sensor-based solution allows operators of water spraying vehicles to monitor both water level and flow rate".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Newall Measurement Systems
concerning its SHG-TT incremental linear encoders
- take a look at Linear encoders suit aluminium smelters
which says: "The SHG-TT incremental encoder is capable of achieving high accuracy and provides a differential quadrature output at RS422 TTL levels".
Take a look also at the news release from Bowers Metrology UK, Bore gauges measure 1 - 300mm,
as well as Readout interfaces without RS232 adapter from Solartron Metrology,
and DRO provides a range of features from ACI (UK).
