Speedy sensor
13 November 2013
Micro-Epsilon has extended its range of laser displacement devices with a new high speed true analogue laser sensor that offers one of the fastest measuring rates of any laser displacement sensor currently available on the market.

Typical applications include impact/drop/crash tests; position control of engine pistons and valves; length, angle and thickness measurements; flatness control; checking dimensional accuracy of components; and vibration measurements.
The optoNCDT 1610 / 1630 measurement system comprises a sensor and separate controller and a 2m connecting cable as standard. The controller is equipped with both analogue (current and voltage) and Ethernet interfaces. There are 14 versions of the sensor available, with measuring ranges from 0.5 to 200mm and maximum measuring speeds due to an extremely fast, analogue PSD (position sensing detector) in the sensor head.
