Abstract: A position display system for displaying a position of a device, the system including a device, a position measuring device that measures a position of the device and a host readout device that is mounted at a first location. The host readout device receives a signal from the position measuring device that is representative of a position of the device, wherein the host readout device includes a display that displays an image representative of the position of the device. A remote readout device that is mounted at a second location, wherein the remote readout device includes a display that displays the image.

Abstract: A mounting tool that includes a base extending along a first direction that is parallel to a longitudinal dimension of the base and a height gage attached to the base. The height gage includes a first leg attached to the base and extending along a second direction that is not parallel to the first direction and a second leg attached to the first leg and comprising a support portion extending along a third direction that is not parallel to the second direction.

Abstract: A method of identifying a node of an arrangement that includes a plurality of movable parts, the method including moving only one of a plurality of movable parts of an arrangement, detecting the moving of the one of the plurality of movable parts and distinguishing a node associated with the one of the plurality of movable parts based on the detecting.

Abstract: A sealed linear encoder for determining the relative position of a first object and a second object. The sealed linear encoder includes a scale unit arranged in a hollow body that is mounted to a mounting structure associated with the first object and includes a slot which extends in a direction of measurement. A scanning unit for scanning the scale unit and a carrier connected to the second object, wherein the carrier extends through the slot. Sealing lips arranged at the hollow body and abutting the carrier so as to seal the carrier and a cover form-fitted to the hollow body for covering at least the slot.

Abstract: A length measuring device for determining a relative position of two objects, which can be moved relative to each other. The measurement device, includes a carrier body which supports the measurement device and is connected with a contact area with a mounting area of one of the two objects and with a scanning arrangement connected with another one of the two objects and scanning the measurement device along a measurement direction. Wherein a torque on an end face of the carrier body in the measurement direction acts on the carrier body in such a way that the contact area of the carrier body is pressed against the mounting area.
