Micro-Epsilon News
The optoNCDT 1900 laser triangulation sensors are available with EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET. The combination of high measuring rate, compact size with integrated controller and high measurement accuracy, enables the sensor to be used in a wide range of applications. Mounting accessories and the intuitive operating concept via web interface enable fast commissioning of the sensor.
Read moreAccurate position, distance and size detection in industrial processes are performed by the high-performance optoCONTROL CLS1000 fiber optic sensors. Available in five different versions, the fiber optic sensors can be optimally adapted to different requirements. The commissioning is simple via a control panel, an OLED display and numerous teach-in modes.
Read moreDue to high utilization, rail networks and rolling stock are exposed to great stresses and must therefore be inspected regularly. Sensors from Micro-Epsilon make a major contribution to smooth processes. They measure and monitor reliably - on the train, in the measurement wagon, in testing facilities as well as measuring machines. The sensors detect wheel tire profiles, inclination angles, vibrations, rail profiles, and bearing gaps in axle bearings; they monitor lift heights as well as rail wear on high-speed tracks.
Read moreThe fields of application for scanCONTROL 30xx laser scanners are now even more diverse. The rear-tail option features a rear outlet with an integrated cable. This reduces the space requirement by about half. In addition, a new protective housing is available that offers connections for air purge as well as liquid cooling, optimizing the laser scanners for measurements in harsh industrial environments.
Read moreThe inductive probe induSENSOR DTD is designed for automated series applications. The design is both extremely compact and kept simple for the end application. For example, the sensor and controller are firmly connected to each other via a cable optimized for drag chains and are also designed for harsh environments. The system is adjusted and calibrated at the factory. The inductive DTD sensor is used, among other things, for automated shape and geometry inspections, for material inspections and positioning tasks.
Read moreIn combination with the entire 3D sensor portfolio from Micro-Epsilon, the Industrial Performance Unit (IPU) evaluates 3D data automatically. The system consists of a powerful industrial controller and the 3DInspect evaluation software with Valid3D technology. The sensors are connected to the IPU via GigE Vision and allow highly accurate evaluation, calculation, further processing, storage and output of the 3D data via integrated, modern interfaces.
Read moreThe optoNCDT 1900 laser sensors are particularly compact and high-performance. As of now, the displacement and distance sensors offer even more options for integration in industrial environments. In addition to the sensors with integrated EtherCAT interface, new models with integrated EtherNet/IP interface are now available. The sensors show their strengths particularly in very fast processes, for example in battery and electronics production, packaging machines and in robotics applications.
Read moreThe new mounting frame for capacitive sensors from Micro-Epsilon ensures highly accurate measurement results in two-sided fixed track thickness measurements. The sensors are arranged opposite each other and permanently mounted. Mounted on this frame, the sensors are perfectly aligned with each other. This ensures maximum precision, which is also required for applications in the battery industry.
Read moreThe optoNCDT 1900-6 and 1900-6LL laser sensors are optimized for applications in the battery industry. With a measuring range of 6 mm, thickness measurements of coated battery films in particular can be performed with high precision. The LL variant with small laser line is especially designed for measurements on coated films, as it compensates for inhomogeneous surfaces using an oval light spot.
Read moreHigh measuring rates and powerful light intensity characterize the confocalDT 2465 and 2466. They provide extremely stable signals for distance and thickness measurements even on rough as well as dark surfaces. The new feature in this controller generation is the possibility to connect and evaluate two sensors at once.The multi-peak variant simultaneously measures the thickness of up to five transparent layers.
Read moreCapacitive sensors from Micro-Epsilon deliver maximum precision for distance, position and thickness measurements in laboratory as well as industrial applications. Two new sensors expand the extensive product portfolio with immediate effect and score with their compact design at high resolution and accuracy. The sensors capaNCDT CSE01 with 0.1 mm measuring range and CSE025 with 0.25 mm measuring range are therefore among the smallest capacitive displacement sensors in the world.
Read moreWhite light interferometers are the most precise optical sensors in Micro-Epsilon's product range. The interferoMETER systems are now also available as multi-peak version. They measure up to 13 layers with minimum layer thicknesses down to 10 µm, enabling simultaneous measurement of distance and thickness. These measuring systems are typically used for multi-layer thickness measurement even with fluctuating measuring distances, e.g., in separator film production.
