New Leuze light section sensors can be
applied wherever large objects need to be detected reliably,
quickly and accurately across longer distances but without
extremely high requirements when it comes to precision.
The large measurement
range of up to 800 mm opens up completely new application
fields using proven light section sensor technology. The new
light section sensors take over where, for lack of
alternatives, oversized and cumbersome sensor solutions have
been used up to now.
The Line Profile Sensor
(LPS) is used whenever sizes and positions of stationary or
moving objects are to be measured. An additional encoder
connection permits the creation of 3D data when scanning
moving objects. This opens up a large range of application
possibililties in position, contour and volume measurement.
The Line Range Sensors (LRS) are
designed to perform proximity object detection along the laser
line. Similar to a light barrier or a laser scanner, the
sensor detects the presence of objects through scanning. With
individual configuration, one sensor can be used to detect
single or multiple objects.
The Line Edge Sensors (LES) determine
the position of objects via their edges. By detecting height
differences the sensor calculates and delivers accurate object
positions. That way heights and widths or positions are
reliably provided as data for further processing. At the same
time one or more edge positions can be output via the
individual configuration.
