Microtrak 4 Laser Sensor

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Microtrak 4 is a precision measurement solution designed for a wide range of applications, from highly reflective to dull surfaces. It is powered directly from a USB port and features a high-speed CMOS sensor with a full frame rate of approximately 40kS/sec. The system includes a Software Development Kit compatible with NI LabVIEW, DLL, and .NET.
Key Features:
  • No external controller is needed; the MTI basic program runs on a PC for easy configuration and data acquisition.
  • Includes a Software Development Kit for custom programming by system integrators.
  • Visible laser spot for easy positioning and alignment.
  • Built-in 5-color position indicator for precise laser mounting without an external controller.
  • Auto Gain Circuitry for adjusting laser power for different surface types.
  • Reliable measurements on very dark or shiny surfaces using a 2X exposure function.
  • Plug and Play USB with no separate power supply needed.
Applications: The Microtrak 4 is suitable for various applications including presence detection, fill height, flatness, profiling, thickness, warpage, alignment, displacement, vibration, step height, shaft run-out, road profile, thermal expansion/contraction, structural dynamics, and dimensional gauging.
Technical Specifications:
  • Diffuse Mode Models are recommended for matte surfaces, while Specular Mode Models are for shiny/glass surfaces.
  • Standard range varies from 1.8 mm to 19.3 mm depending on the model.
  • Linearity is defined as the peak measured variation from the best fit linear line over the full scale range.
  • Maximum sampling rate is 40k frames/s with exposure times of 25 µs and 50 µs.
  • Laser wavelength ranges from 630nm to 670nm with a maximum power level of 4.9mW.
  • Operational temperature range is 0 to 40 °C, with storage temperature ranging from -20 to 70 °C.
  • Intrusion protection is rated at IP67 according to IEC60529 standards.
Optional Accessories: Accessories include laser head mounts, right angle brackets, and USB/power cables of varying lengths.
Package Contents: The package includes a USB drive with software, manual, and drivers, and a Microtrak 4 laser sensor head. Note that the USB/power cable is available separately.
