Stroke and Positioning
Realtime feedback for position or stroke is important for both process control and process improvement. The target's speed, distance, and accessibility will all impact which type of sensor best suits your needs. Take a look at the typical approaches for position measurement below, or feel free to request a consultation with a local measurement expert.
Confocal sensors do not have the dead zones characteristic of triangulation sensors, and can therefore measure into smaller and deeper holes more reliably.
Confocal Displacement Sensor
CL-3000 series
Using thrubeam sensors, roller position can be accurately measured at high line speeds.
High-speed optical micrometer
LS-9000 series
Check for press fit failure with contact displacement sensors.
High-Accuracy Digital Contact Sensor
GT2 series
Measure the height of the equipment when adhesive is applied to glass. Utilizing the multi-colour confocal method measurement principle enables high-precision measurement whether the glass is transparent or opaque.
Confocal Displacement Sensor
CL-3000 series
Target positioning is used to ensure the next process is performed accurately. Laser profilers provide stable position feedback anywhere in the measurement range, regardless of target material, colour, or size.
