Laser Triangulation up to a Distance of 2 m

Micro-Epsilon has launched a new laser sensor: the optoNCDT 1710-1000. The sensor has a measuring range that starts from a distance of one metre from the sensor, so displacement can be measured at a distance of 2 m from the sensor. The sensor comes with an integrated controller in compact 200 x 83 x 48 mm housing. The diameter of the light spot is constant across the complete beam path. With a measuring rate of 2.5 kHz, the sensor provides 100 µm resolution without averaging. 4 ... 20 mA, 0 ... 10 V, RS422 or USB outputs are available. more18.10.2009

New Low Cost Laser Sensors

The new low cost optoNCDT1302 laser sensor from Micro-Epsilon replaces the optoNCDT 1300 in the product range. Compared to its predecessor, this model provides a measuring rate of 750Hz and is available for the first time with an RS422 port in addition to the analogue current / voltage output. The sensor has a trigger and a teach-in input, which enables the user to individually adjust the measuring range.

Another special feature of the sensor is the integrated peak evaluation for selection of the first, last or highest peak measurement. more
