Odac® is the registered trademark for laser diameter and
dimensional measuring gauges from Zumbach Electronics.
Over 60,000 Odac scanners or systems are operating world-
wide for in-line measurement of diameter, ovality and other
dimensions in industrial processes.
The gauges are based on the most recent laser scanning
technology and on Zumbach’s long experience in this field.
With almost unlimited installation and configuration possi-
bilities, these gauges can be used in all manufacturing
processes, such as the extrusion of cables, hoses and profiles;
drawing, grinding, cold and hot rolling of rods and tubes in
the metalworking industry; and non-destructive testing lines
for any product.
The advantages of Odac scanners include:
High resolution and accuracy •
High measuring rate •
Integrated fault detection function •
Permanent calibration •
A complete line of USYS systems for data acquisition, processing,
display, statistics, process control and networking is available
for any specification and budget. All USYS processors are
industrial, stable, easy to operate and extendable. They can
process up to six Odac gauges plus other sensors, speed and
event inputs.
