Press releases of Micro-Epsilon
With the eddyNCDT 3060, Micro-Epsilon has developed a powerful displacement measuring system based on the eddy current principle, which combines precision, speed and temperature stability in a unique way. These characteristics are complemented with maximum ease of use and an excellent price/performance ratio.
Press releaseMeasuring the bearing gap in wind turbines
In wind turbines, the bearing gap is very important because the better the sliding properties, the higher the plant effectiveness and service life. The bearing gap between the bearing surface and the drive shaft is reliably monitored using inductive sensors from Micro-Epsilon based on eddy currents.
Press releaseMonitoring the clamping position in machine tools is an extremely important and critical measurement task. In order to avoid incorrect machining and the high resulting costs, the position of the tool must be detected. Here, the induSENSOR LVP displacement sensor is used. This compact and wear-free sensor supplies a continuous analog signal according to the stroke motion of the drawbar when clamping the tool.
Press releaseThe latest Configuration Tools 6.0 software combines uniformity with increased functionality and improved ease of use. The software is now available for scanCONTROL sensors and gapCONTROL sensors and therefore arrives as a joint software solution for both sensor types, which now also supports measurements and evaluations of different gap types.
Press releaseThe new, confocal chromatic confocalDT IFS2404-2 sensor is used for high precision distance and thickness measurements of transparent materials. With a diameter of just 12 mm, the sensor can also be integrated into restricted installation space. The innovative lens enables high measurement accuracy and a small light spot diameter.
Press releaseThe new optoNCDT 1750LL laser sensor is used in high precision distance measurements of metallic and structured surfaces. Their oval-shaped light spot makes it possible to compensate for physical interferences and to output stable measurement values. Therefore, the optoNCDT 1750LL can be used where conventional laser point sensors are operating at their limits.
Press releaseIn order to inspect the height of pressed-in contact pins on PCBs immediately after the assembly process, scanCONTROL laser scanners from Micro-Epsilon are used. These create a 3D profile of each PCB. Faced with miniature targets, the sensors must fulfill high requirements in terms of precision and speed.
Press releaseDuring surface finishing of strip material, the color sensor system used must meet high requirements in terms of precision and speed. In order to detect color shades with an accuracy of ΔE <0.1, the colorCONTROL ACS7000 color measuring system from Micro-Epsilon is used. It is directly integrated in the production line and operates with high precision and speed.
Press releaseWith the reflectCONTROL, surfaceCONTROL and scanCONTROL systems, Micro-Epsilon offers innovative solutions for 3D surface inspection, while opening up numerous fields of application for geometrical measurements, surface inspection and defect detection. These systems enable 100% inspection and can be directly integrated into the processing line or on a robot.
Press releaseThe optoCONTROL 2520-46(090) extends the product range of optical precision micrometers. With the receiver able to rotate by 90°, the micrometer is ideal for installations with limited space. Furthermore, it is classified as laser class 1M and includes an integrated controller. Configuration is via a user-friendly web interface.
Press releaseThe new colorSENSOR CFO200 takes the powerful True Color recognition sensors of the CFO series to a new performance level. The new model is distinguished by its increased precision, speed, light power, color memory and additional connections. With a measurement frequency of 20kHz, 320 colors in 254 color groups can be detected to the highest color accuracy. In addition, the innovative web interface provides ease of use.
Press releaseMicro-Epsilon has extended its product range of capacitive displacement and distance sensors by capacitive thread sensors. These are not intended for clamping but are screwed into a thread. This opens up numerous application possibilities, e.g. when mounting on walls or in bore holes.
