LSV Laser Surface Velocimeter LSV Laser Surface Velocimeter Process control by non-contact speed and length measurement Product brochure

Controlling production processes with optical sensors Yield, quality, throughput – Keep your process under control When producing strip material, e.g. in steel mills or paper manufacturing, knowing the exact strip length and the current velocity is essential for optimizing your costs and processes. Here, Polytec offers solutions for precise process control. LSV Laser Surface Velocimeters are high-performance sensors for a reliable measurement of length and speed. Thanks to the optical measurement the sensor captures length and speed reliably and without contact in challenging industrial environments....

Avoid process uncertainty and added costs caused by contact measuring techniques due to slippage, wear, damage to the product or maintenance. Accuracy, versatility and reliability make the LSV the perfect solution for a variety of measurement tasks in processes where precise, real-time speed and length data are critical. In addition, the LSV Laser Surface Velocimeter can reduce production costs by minimizing material scrap and optimizing product and process quality. The LSV can be applied easily and will replace less accurate and unreliable contact encoder and tachometer technology. The savings...
