3-D profile sensors with enhanced performance
April 2018
Sensors & Transducers
ASSTech’s new range of 3-D Wenglor performance class profile sensors now include a total of ten innovative models providing more options for three dimensional object measurement. In particular they allow large visual field widths of up to 1350 mm in the X-direction, as well as increased laser power and even more extensive and faster profile detection.
As significantly larger objects can now be detected the sensors can be used for applications such as bin picking, pick and place, gap measurement, object counting and 3-D sealant bead monitoring. The sensors provide outstanding point cloud quality with a very broad visual field over a large distance.
The compact housing has dimensions of just 200 x 67 x 38 mm and the sensor weighs only 550 g. Variants with different laser classes including 2 M, 3 R and 3 B and red blue light also provide users with maximum diversity for product selection.
Other features include up to 3,6 million measuring points per second, CMOS technology, integrated CPU, fast measuring rate of 4000 Hz, intuitive display and Gigabit Ethernet.
