Smart laser triangulation displacement sensors

Micro-Epsilon: The optoNCDT 1420 laser sensors offer a unique combination of speed, compact size, performance and application versatility. Their high measurement accuracy and measuring rate enable dynamic measurements of displacement, distance and position with up to 4kHz and their fields of application are therefore wide-ranging.

The optoNCDT 1420 laser triangulation sensors measure displacement, distance and position on a non-contact, wear-free basis. The small all-rounders provide high precision measurements along with a compact design, offering high performance across a wide variety of applications. Their innovative design and functionality was recognized with the Red Dot Award Industrial Design 2016.

Furthermore, the sensors stand out due to their excellent price/performance ratio, an innovative web interface and their ease of use. The measurement task can be selected using the quality slider and can be further optimized using the video signal display, signal peak selection and individually adjustable signal averaging. The ROI function (region of interest) allows e.g. for interfering signals in the background to be filtered out. The multifunction button enables quick sensor commissioning for easy measurement tasks.

As well as in the electronics production, these laser triangulation sensors are also applied in the packaging industry, wood processing, logistics, medical engineering, laser engraving equipment and machine building.
