Thickness measurement.


Single point laser sensors are said to be well suited for thickness measurement, profiling, positioning and other applications in most industries that require a sensor with a long stand-off and measurement range. The DLS-2000 laser displacement sensors are said to be lower in cost than many other comparable sensors, but at the same time are highly accurate and among the most versatile in the industry due to their small size, according to according to

 the company. Offset distance, which is the distance from the sensor face to the beginning of the measurement range, is 4.0 in. (100 mm), 10 in. (254 mm) or 19.7 in. (500 mm) for the long-range version. The sensors deliver a 25-micron resolution at a 1.8 kHz scan rate The number of times per second an image capture or display device samples its field of vision. See scan line and horizontal scan frequency. See also scan technology. , or a scan rate of 1.667 kHz for the long-range version. Measurement range is 11.8 in. (300 mm), 24 in. (610 mm) or 118 in. (3,000 mm), depending on the model selected. Using laser triangulation triangulation: see geodesy.


The use of two known coordinates to determine the location of a third. Used by ship captains for centuries to navigate on the high seas, triangulation is employed in GPS receivers to pinpoint their current location on earth.
 principles, the CCD-based DLS-2000 series incorporates automatic laser power control that compensates for changes in color and surface characteristics. By eliminating the need for a separate controller, the sensor conserves production space and decreases set-up time, according to the manufacturer. Sensors can be custom designed for particular OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and  applications.
