The AR600 Series will be discontinued as of June 2009 and replaced with the AR700 Series.
The AR600 laser displacement sensor models employ triangulation measurement principles with a CMOS detector array. This technique yields accurate distance measuring and unmatched sensitivity on targets with low reflectivity. The AR600 optical measurement sensor projects a beam of visible laser
light that creates a spot on the target surface. The reflected light from
the surface is viewed from an angle by a CMOS line scan camera and the
target's distance is computed from the image pixel data. The size of the
measurement triangle is a function of the sensor span and case length. Thickness gauging is achieved by using two opposing sensors with laser spots aimed at opposite sides of a target. The sensor readings are subtracted from the sensor separation distance to yield a real-time thickness measurement. For the most accurate thickness measurements, the sensors should be synchronized using a single serial port to sample "on-command". |
