Heidenhain Linear Scale Parts

[Dustcanblue]

Morning

I have a Gildemeister CTX 400 that wouldn't reference on the X at start up. After removing the glass scale we notice a small plastic strip with a thin magnet at each end,They act as limit switch and are necessary to the referencing. One (bottom) had the magnet disintegrated from corrosion. We interchange the strip from top to bottom and it fix the problem. My issue is I have no more limit at -X. Is there a parts supplier for Heindenhain scale. The model # LS486 I would probably change the seal also. Thanking you in advance for the feedback, Merry Christmas and best of the season to all.
