surfaceCONTROL 3D // 3D snapshot sensors

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a detailed overview of the surfaceCONTROL 3D snapshot sensors, designed for precise 3D measurement and surface inspection. These sensors enable fast, non-contact acquisition of 3D data, which can be evaluated directly in the sensor or through external software, facilitating automated inspection tasks.
Measuring Principle: The sensors operate using optical triangulation with fringe projection, projecting patterns onto objects and capturing reflected light with cameras to calculate the 3D surface.
Benefits: Compared to 2D cameras and tactile sensors, these sensors offer more information, increased safety, and higher precision. They provide true height information, complete inspection capabilities, flexible positioning, and non-contact measurement, ensuring no damage to the object.
Sensor Models: Various models are available, including the surfaceCONTROL 3D 3560, 3500, 3200, and 2600, each offering different levels of precision and integration capabilities.
Applications: Suitable for a wide range of applications, these sensors are used in industries such as electronics, automotive, and manufacturing for tasks like flatness inspection, PCB warpage measurement, and smartphone housing accuracy.
Integration and Software: The sensors support multiple interfaces and protocols, including GenICam, GigE Vision, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP, and EtherCAT. They come with comprehensive SDKs and are compatible with various software environments, facilitating easy integration into existing systems.
Technical Specifications: The sensors offer high XY resolution starting at 8 µm and repeatability starting at 0.25 µm. They are equipped with LED light sources and have a robust design suitable for industrial environments.
Conclusion: surfaceCONTROL 3D snapshot sensors provide a high-precision, flexible solution for 3D measurement and inspection, supporting a wide range of industrial applications with ease of integration and reliable performance.
Specifications: The sensors feature a robust aluminum housing with IP67 protection, making them suitable for harsh environments. They operate within a temperature range of 0°C to 45°C and can withstand shocks and vibrations as per DIN standards. The sensors use LED light sources and require a 24 VDC power supply.
Models and Measuring Ranges: The document details multiple models within each series, specifying their measuring ranges, resolutions, and repeatability. For instance, the SC3500 series offers XY resolutions starting at 8 µm and Z-axis repeatability up to 0.25 µm, while the SC3200 series provides an excellent price-performance ratio with slightly lower precision.
Software and Integration: The sensors are compatible with Micro-Epsilon's 3DInspect software for data processing and visualization. They support GigE Vision and GenICam standards for integration with third-party software, making them ideal for image processing specialists.
Applications: These sensors are suitable for automated inline inspection of geometry, form, and surfaces, particularly in high-speed processes. The SC2600 series is highlighted for its capability to measure large objects with high precision.
Connection and Interfaces: The sensors offer multiple digital I/Os and support various industrial communication protocols, including PROFINET, EtherCAT, and EtherNet/IP, ensuring flexible integration into existing systems.
Conclusion: The surfaceCONTROL 3D sensors provide high precision and flexibility for industrial measurement tasks, with options to suit different application needs and budgets.
3DInspect Software: The software supports various surfaceCONTROL sensor series, with some models requiring external computing units for evaluation. It offers a user-friendly interface for creating measurement programs and supports inline operation directly on SMART sensors.
Functional Extensions: Functional extensions such as Digital Master, Digital Stone, and defect detection enhance surface inspection capabilities, allowing for reliable detection of surface deviations.
Accessories: The document lists various accessories for the surfaceCONTROL sensors, including supply cables, connection cables, mounting adapters, tripods, power supplies, and calibration kits. These accessories facilitate the installation, alignment, and operation of the sensors.
Industrial Performance Unit: The Industrial Performance Unit (IPU) is highlighted as a high-performance computing platform for evaluating 3D data, offering full compatibility and inline capability for customer applications.
Conclusion: The document concludes with contact information for Micro-Epsilon, emphasizing their expertise in sensors and systems for various measurement and inspection applications.
