Abstract: A scanning unit is arranged to scan a scale element that is rotatable about an axis relative to the scanning unit. The scanning unit includes a circuit board, which includes a substrate having a first surface, a second surface arranged opposite the first surface, and a circumferential third surface. A transducer system is arranged on the first surface, and electronic components are mounted on the second surface. The third surface includes a plurality of concave indentations. The scanning unit furthermore includes a metal frame having an uninterrupted first recess, which is radially restricted by an inner side of the metal frame, the inner side having a plurality of inwardly projecting elements. The inwardly projecting elements engage with the concave indentations such that the substrate is fixed in place in the metal frame under mechanical tension.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-stage curing ink comprising compounds for forming at least one organic matrix, which is cured via radical polymerisation and which curing can be initiated by radiation, and comprising alkoxysilane in a quantity of 10 to 60 wt. %, preferably 20 to 50 wt. %, in relation to the total formulation, in order to form at least one inorganic matrix, which is cured via non-radical polymerisation and which curing can be initiated thermally, the ink also including a structure-reinforcing polymer having a number average molecular mass (Mn) of greater than 3000 g/mol, preferably greater than 10,000 g/mol, and particularly preferably greater than 30,000 g/mol, and the viscosity of the ink at 50° C. is in the region of 6 to 15 mPa·s, particularly preferably in the region of 9 to 11 mPa·s, measured with a Brookfield rheometer using a UL adapter with a rotational speed of 50 rotations per minute.

Abstract: A scanning unit for an angle-measuring device for scanning an angular scale, so that a relative angular position between the scanning unit and the angular scale about an axis of rotation can be determined, includes a substrate having a first surface, a detector configured to generate signals which are dependent on the angular position, evaluation electronics including electronic components surrounded by a potting compound, and an electrical interface configured to create a connection from the evaluation electronics to subsequent electronics. The detector, electronic components and electrical interface are disposed on the first surface of the substrate. The electronic components and the electrical interface are disposed further away from the axis of rotation than the detector. The potting compound is disposed on the first surface of the substrate circumferentially around the axis of rotation.
