INTRODUCTION The optical position measuring system LAM is used in non-contact measurement applications. LAM distance sensors are available in various models so as to offer the suitable sensor type for any application. Due to the high measuring frequency of up to 100 kHz this series is particularly suited for highly dynamic measurements. This high resolution of up to 0.05 µm guarantees reliable use in sophisticated measurements in quality control. MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE The LAM laser sensors are used for non-contact position or presence measuring of objects. They utilise the triangulation method...

SURFACE-DEPENDENT MEASUREMENT ERROR Surface-related measurement errors impacted by material and colour Any materials, e.g. metal, plastic, ceramics, rubber and paper, can be measuring objects. Use only needs to be reviewed on an individual basis with highly reflective surfaces or liquids. Surface reflectance The sensor requires a minimum of 10% surface reflection to function properly. Only diffuse reflection can be used for measurement. Lateral flare When projecting the light spot slight flare also occurs, which is reflected laterally by the measuring point, and then reaches the receiver. Highly...

Note: direct connection between sensor and network card requires a cross Ethernet cable. If an Ethernet-switch is interconnected, Ethernet cables assigned 1:1 can be used. If the Ethernet-switch automatically recognises the line polarity due to its "Autosense + AutoMDI”-function it doesn't matter if the cables used are assigned 1:1 or crossed. 11 OK refers to the measuring range of the sensor. As long as the green LED is lightning, the object is within the measurement range. Outside the range the LED is off. MAX/MIN can be adjusted by the user and they must be within the measurement range (Default:...

The Dip-switch (under the cover inside the lid for the electronics unit) is used to adjust the frequency of the low pass filter. Switch 1 is on the left, switch 6 on the right. The internal sampling rate of the sensor is not impacted by the Dip-Switch-settings. The filter frequencies specified correspond with the -3 db bandwidth of the low pass filter. Higher frequencies and noise are reduced more and more. Never change the potentiometers! Example: Set to 2.5 kHz a recorded oscillation of a frequency of 2 kHz is transmitted without considerable reduction. A frequency of 10 kHz, however, would...
