FLS-C – fast distance measuring for dynamic positioning applications

Dimetix AG: In modern industrial facilities such as high rack storage, gantry cranes, harbor equipment as well as in the steel- and wood industry etc. many positioning applications exist. In such dynamic positioning applications, it is essential to make a continuous and fast determination of the object's current position even the target is in motion.

Due to innovative laser technology, the FLS-C distance measuring device measures the absolute distance to an object with a fixed update rate of 200 Hz. The FLS-C distance measuring device has a unique accuracy of 1 mm and a typical repeatability of 0.3 mm. Distances up to 500 meters can be measured with target speeds up to 10 m/s.

The FLS-C distance measuring device is designed to be suitable for both, heavy industrial and outdoor applications. It is constructed of a solid metal case and provides class IP65 environmental protection. It represents a cost effective solution even at extreme environment temperatures as low as -40° C. Furthermore, various features make it flexible for many other applications in various industries such as automotive, paper and textile.
