Angle measuring system and use of this angle measuring system in a spindle arrangement

摘要

An angle measuring device having a graduation carrier, a scanning plate, a detector arrangement on a stationary element for measuring a rotational position of the graduation carrier with respect to the scanning plate around a first axis of rotation, wherein the scanning plate with the graduation carrier is rotatable with respect to the detector arrangement around a second axis of rotation; and the first and second axes of rotation extend parallel with respect to each other and are radially distanced from each other.
