Micro-Epsilon enhances its range of laser distance sensors with IO-Link version and increased measuring ranges

Precision sensor supplier Micro-Epsilon has enhanced its non-contact laser distance sensor portfolio with two new models - a new version of the optoNCDT ILR3800-100 with IO-Link, as well as a new version of the optoNCDT ILR104x that offers an increased measuring range up to 150 m.

Developed in-house by Micro-Epsilon, the optoNCDT ILR 3800-100 has a very high signal stability on various surfaces. The sensor measures accurately on difficult surfaces such as dark, structured or weakly reflecting objects. Without any special adaptations to the target, the sensor has an impressive range up to 100m. Adding a reflector to the target extends the range to 150m.

In terms of its technical performance, the optoNCDT ILR3800 is unsurpassed in its field, providing excellent repeatability (xtagstartz300um), resolution (0.1mm) and linearity (< +/- 1mm), resulting in extremely stable measurements and excellent signal stability. The sensor's small footprint (102 x 53 x 50mm) and weight (254g) allows it to be easily installed in narrow or restricted spaces in production lines and machines.
