LEUZE ELECTRONIC TAILOR MADE Depending on requirements, sensors with various operating ranges, resolutions and reproducibilities are needed. To optimally cover the needs, we use various technologies in our sensors that are based on proven measurement procedures. Triangulation measurement With triangulation measurement, the laser beam is reflected by the object. This is incident on a high-resolution receiving array. The distance to the object is determined based on the point of incidence. This process is suitable for ranges up to approximately one meter and if very high resolutions are necessary....

OPTICAL DISTANCE SENSORS Stack height measurement Requirement: With machining processes, the raw material must be fed into the machine without interruption. To ensure this, the stack height on the load carrier must be constantly detected. Solution: Our wide selection of distance sensors with various resolutions and operating ranges enables height measurement of different stacked objects. Sag/loop control Requirement: If, during clocked processes, raw material is fed in from coils, loop control must be performed to compensate for feed fluctuations. To do this, it is necessary to check how taut...
