Dimensional measurement for manufacturing
Zumbach offers a complete line of
modular, single axis ODAC® laser gauges,
available either mounted on a rail or as
components with separate sender and
receiver units for flexible installation in
any position.
Using high precision, telecentric optics,
it is possible to mount sender and
receiver units at a distance to each
other (depending on the model, up
to 3m/10ft). This enables multiple
sender/receiver pairs arranged in the
same measuring level, thus offering a
multi-axis measurement.
With almost unlimited installation and
configuration possibilities, these gauges
can be used in most manufacturing
processes, including the extrusion of
cables, hoses, and profiles or in the
steel and metal industries for drawing,
grinding, cold and hot rolling of rods
and tubes.
The advantages of the system include:
High scan rate, depending on the •
model up to 2,000/s
Accurate •
Compact and rugged design •
Various measurement modes •
including diameter, gap width,
depth penetration or multiple
measurement
Special beam geometries available •
(depending on model): narrow
beam for contour measurements;
parallel beam for profiles and
similar
Models with integrated processor •
(RS, Ethernet, Profibus DP)
