LMI Technologies: Smart Displacement Sensors

Oct. 14, 2012
The Gocator 1100 and 1300 series are aimed at automating non-contact distance measurement processes and real-time closed loop control.

The sensors perform high speed dimensional measurements, such as height and thickness or surface roughness with scan rates up to 32 kHz (10 kHz for the 1100 series), which make them suitable for real-time closed loop control. They measures at high resolution over ranges up to 2 m. Scalable to a multi-sensor system, they connect to PLCs using industry standard protocols, while an open source SDK provides user specific custom application development -software development is not required, and the units use web based interface found in the company's Gocator Profile Sensors. Units are pre-calibrated, and integrated laser and optics that deliver measurement out of the box. They provide laser measurement and data processing in one unit, with no additional hardware required to generate decisions. Class 2m, 3R, 3B laser options are optimized for different types of applications The housings are rated IP67 for industrial environments.
