Micro-Epsilon’s optoNCDT 2300 high-end laser triangulation sensor features a measuring rate that can be set up to 50kHz. Offered initially as a set of 5 models with measuring ranges between 2 and 100mm, it integrates entire electronics in compact 80 x 75mm housing. Resolution is up to 0.1µm and linearity is up to + 0.4µm. Data output is via Ethernet, RS422 or EtherCAT. The entire sensor configuration is possible through an ergonomically designed web interface. With transparent objects, the change from displacement measurement to thickness measurement can be made. A sensor records the first and second reflection from the target surface, meaning that there is no need for a second sensor during the process monitoring of transparent plastics. Suitable for high speed applications, the sensor can monitor vibration or be used on difficult, uneven surfaces. The sensors use A-RTSC (Advanced Real Time Surface Compensation) feature, which is an enhancement on the company’s proven RTSC technology. Offering an improved dynamic range, this feature enables more precise real time surface compensation during the measuring process. This works by adjusting the automatic exposure regulation to customer requirements to an even greater extent than before.
