2D/3D Laser Profile Scanners serve production environments.
Press Release Summary:
Comprised of optoelectronic sensor with integrated controller enclosed in 380 g aluminum housing, scanCONTROL 2600/2900 offer respective measuring rates up to 640 and 1,280 points per profile. Measuring range starts at 53 mm from sensor and can be extended up to 390 mm, depending on sensor model. Able to transfer up to 4,000 profiles/sec to PC for further processing, laser line scanners comes with Gigabit Ethernet interface and multi-purpose interface for RS422 connections.
Original Press Release:
2D/3D Laser Profile Scanner for Automation
Compact design, flexible installation options and versatile interfaces make the new scanCONTROL 2600/2900 laser line scanners the ideal choice for high-precision profile and dimensional measurements in production environments.
Micro-Epsilon has developed an extremely compact, lightweight laser profile scanner. The scanCONTROL 2600/2900 optoelectronic sensor with integrated controller is enclosed in a 380g aluminium housing.
While the sensor is as small as a packet of cigarettes, it provides a large range of features: up to 4,000 profiles per second can be transferred to a PC for further processing. The scanCONTROL 2600 offers a measuring rate up to 640 points per profile and the scanCONTROL 2900 up to 1280 points per profile. The measuring range starts at a distance of 53 mm from the sensor and can be extended up to 390 mm, depending on the sensor model. The same size of housing is used for the various measuring ranges. The following interfaces are available for scanCONTROL 2600/2900: Gigabit Ethernet interface for transferring profiles and a multi-purpose interface for RS422 connections. At the same time, the digital inputs can be used for synchronising and triggering, or as encoder inputs. An additional output unit can be used to provide more output signals.
scanCONTROL 2600/2900 is particularly well suited for applications that require a low sensor weight, for example, in automotive production or when sensors are mounted to robot arms.
