Viesturs,
I've had good luck with Koyo encoders from Automation Direct. I
use the TRD-2500-VD. differential, 2500 lpr, light duty ...
dust sealed and have had no trouble with them. They are more
expensive than the USD but still, I think, available at a good
price.
I also assume you use a star grounding system for your encoder
and signal cables. On my Mazak all the cables have a section of
bare shielding braid that is clamped to a grounding bar. I've
monitored an encoder line for 24 hours and not had a single
hit. :-)
