Accurate and repeatable displacement measurements from highly reflective to dull surfaces
Compact digital laser displacement sensor head with stable and accurate measurements
The latest 1D laser displacement sensor from MTI provides excellent speed and accuracy for even the most difficult applications and provides data output and power through a single USB cable.
The MicroTrak 4 is the ultimate 1D laser sensor for measuring height, thickness, displacement, vibration, and more, with a sensor frame rate of 40k Samples/sec. and linearity of 0.03% FSO (Full Scale Output) accuracy and repeatability are assured.
This easy-to-setup precision laser triangulation sensor has a built-in 5 color position indicator making it easy to determine the initial gap setup and for monitoring rudimentary performance during machine maintenance without referring to an external controller.
- Resolution down to 0.03µm
- No separate power supply needed – Power supply from your computer’s USB port and at the same time provides all digital output
- CMOS sensor full frame rate of 40,000 per second
- Accurate and repeatable measurements from highly reflective to dull surfaces
- Specular and Glass Models available
- Configuration/DAQ software and DLL library included to provide ultimate flexibility in data collection and processing. All library functions can be managed by the MicroTrak 4 application software. Importing the library into other languages, such as Python, is possible and is the responsibility of the user.
- Auto gain circuitry – Automatically determines and adjusts the ideal laser power needed for different types of surfaces
- Programmable Cut-time feature – The bridging function ignores hole and cut-outs on objects for in process gap control and measurement
- No controller Needed – Built-in 5-color position indicator determines nominal laser gap setting and distance placement without the need for a controller
- Software Compatible with Windows® XP, Vista, Windows® 7 and Windows® 8
