The optoNCDT 2000 is a laser triangulation displacement sensor engineered for non-contact measurement of displacement, distance, and position across diverse target surfaces. A laser diode projects a focused light spot onto the target; reflected light is captured and analyzed by an optical receiving system to determine positional changes with high precision. The sensor accommodates diffuse-reflecting, shiny, mirroring, red-hot glowing metals, organic, and transparent surfaces through standard red laser or specialized Blue Laser (BL) model variants.
Technical Specifications
• Measurement Principle: Laser triangulation
• Laser Type: Red laser diode (670 nm, <1 mW, Laser Class II) or Blue Laser (BL) models for red-hot metals and transparent objects
• Accuracy: High linearity to ±0.02% F.S.O. (model and range dependent)
• Resolution: Submicron precision available
• Light Spot Size: Varies by measuring range; models achieve spot sizes as small as 8.5 × 11 µm
• Measuring Rate: Adjustable rates up to 75 kHz
• Output Signals: Analog voltage outputs (±5 V) and digital outputs
– Key Features
• Active Surface Compensation (ASC) delivers stable measurement independent of target color or brightness variations
• Real Time Surface Compensation (RTSC) patented technology compensates for reflection changes during continuous exposure, suited to rapidly changing surface types
• Laser Line (LL) models employ oval light spots to eliminate speckle effects on metallic surfaces
• Compact integrated controller design reduces installation complexity
– Typical Applications
Automation systems, machine building, 3D printers, and robotics integration.
– Compatibility & Integration
The PS 2000-24 power supply unit operates up to two ILD 2000 sensors.
