The thicknessSENSOR 25/200 is a compact, non-contact sensor system for precise thickness measurement of strip and plate materials, using two aligned laser triangulation sensors and an integrated evaluation unit. It has a 25 mm measuring range, 200 mm measuring width, and 71 mm working gap, with ±40 µm linearity and a maximum measuring rate of 4 kHz. Operation is via a web interface with up to eight stored configurations; measurement data output includes Ethernet and analog signals (0…5 V, 0…10 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, 4…20 mA). It is rated IP65, operates from 0 °C to +50 °C, and requires 11…30 VDC with power under 5 W. A magnet-fixed reference target enables on-site calibration. The system weighs 3.3 kg and uses a Class 2 laser (670 nm, <1 mW), meeting EN 61000-6-3 and EN 61000-6-2 for EMC.
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.
