The thicknessSENSOR 10/400 is a compact, non-contact sensor system for precise thickness measurement of strip and plate materials, integrating two laser triangulation sensors and an evaluation unit in a single frame. It has a measuring range of 10 mm, a measuring width of 400 mm, and a working gap of 46 mm. Linearity is ±10 µm, with a measuring rate configurable up to 4 kHz using a 670 nm red semiconductor laser emitting less than 1 mW. The system operates via a web interface, supports up to eight stored configurations, and outputs measurement values via Ethernet, 0…5 V, 0…10 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, or 4…20 mA. It is rated IP65, complies with EN 61000-6-3 and EN 61000-6-2 (Class B), and operates from 0 °C to +50 °C. The unit weighs 4.3 kg and is powered by 11…30 VDC.
The new thicknessSENSOR is a sensor system for precise thickness measurement of strip and plate material. This fully assembled system comprises a stable frame where two laser triangulation sensors with small laser line are fixed that detect the thickness of various materials according to the difference principle. The evaluation unit integrated into the frame calculates the thickness values and outputs these via different interfaces. The thicknessSENSOR enables turnkey thickness measurement along with an unmatched price/performance ratio. Due to its extremely compact design, this sensor system can also be integrated in a confined installation space. Several models with different measuring ranges and widths enable the detection of various object geometries. The integrated laser sensors are perfectly adjusted to each other in terms of their mounting conditions, therefore providing high measurement accuracy. The thicknessSENSOR is operated using an intuitive web interface. The settings for the measurement task can be quickly selected using predefined presets. Different configuration and set up possibilities enable the user to easily adapt the sensor e.g. to dynamic measurements and different materials. Up to eight user-specific sensor settings can be stored and exported in the setup management. The signal peak selection and a freely adjustable signal averaging enable the experienced user to optimize the measurement task.
