The laser scanners from the LASE 2000T-Series are optical measuring devices for contactless two-dimensional high-precision measurements.
The Scanner
The LASE 2000T-Series work according to the principle of an oscillating triangulation plane over 10° or 50°, which ensures highest accuracy.
A fine collimated or focused laser beam is diffusely reflected from the surface of almost any kind of material or fluid, and a CCD- camera records the image through an objective. This makes it possible for a Digital Signal Processor to calculate the (radial) distance from the centre of the mirror axis to the object surface, as well as keeping track of the angular reference position.
The LASE 2000T measuring system is a compact unit in which optics, CCD-camera, and digital signal processing electronics are all integrated in one sensor housing. The internal measuring frequency is 2 kHz (6kHz optional) and the measured data are beeing used as serial data stream (RS232 or RS 422) for further processing with a windows pc.
In order to measure even on hot surfaces like slabs or metal sheets in the branch of steel further HT- and VHT versions are available, too.
