March 2007 -- Baumer has added a new member to the Series 13 laser distance sensors, which measure up to 550 mm. The OADM 13 laser distance sensor features a compact design (13,4 x 40 x 48,2 mm) and excellent technical specifications, and ideally complements the existing OADM 12 (measuring distances up to 120 mm) and OADM 20 (measuring distances up to 1 m) sensors.
The triangulation principle, combined with precision optics and intelligent software permits resolutions up to 10 µm at a measuring rate of 900 µs. Two sensor types for measuring ranges of 300 mm and 500 mm are available. A dot or line-shaped laser beam can be selected, depending on your specific requirements. The measuring range can be easily adapted to the necessary measuring conditions by using the 2-point teach-in process standardised by Baumer Electric. This allows the resolution to be optimised and the full signal deviation (4-20 mA or 0-10 V) can be applied to the new measuring range.
The sensor can be used to directly monitor the production process even under restricted space conditions because of its compact design.
