Micro-Epsilon News
For displacement and distance measurements at ambient temperatures up to +800 °C, Micro-Epsilon now offers the robust, capacitive sensor system capaNCDT 6228. Its high temperature stability and exceptionally high linearity enables precise results even in challenging ambient conditions.
Read moreCarbon ribbons are used for interior components but also in the construction of aircraft. To produce narrow carbon ribbons, wide belts are cut into individual strips, spooled onto rolls and measured to the micrometer during this process. For these measurement tasks, precise optoCONTROL 2520 micrometers are used. These are designed for dynamic measurement tasks in industrial areas.
Read moreThe new JMA-Thickness mounting device is now available both for the confocal chromatic sensors and the interferometers. The JMA Thickness allows quick and easy alignment of sensors for two-sided thickness measurements. This enables highly accurate results to be achieved, as the measuring points can be aligned absolutely congruently by means of fine adjustment.
Read moreWith the new AIK adapter, we offer you more flexibility and even easier connection options for scanCONTROL laser scanners. All laser scanners from Micro-Epsilon can now be addressed with Cognex VisionPro software. The AIK adapter combines the advantages of the Cognex VisionPro environment to generate fast and reliable applications with the advantages of native scanCONTROL integration.
Read moreThe 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.
