Optocontrol Cls1000 Controller

surfaceCONTROL sensors are used for 3D measurements and surface inspections. The sensors use the fringe projection principle to detect diffuse reflecting surface and to generate a 3D point cloud. This point cloud is subsequently evaluated in order to recognize geometry, extremely small defects and discontinuities on the surface. Sensors with different measurement areas are available. This enables the inspection of the finest of structures on components as well as form deviations on large-area attachments. Powerful software packages are available for evaluation and parameter setting.

For the steel and aluminum industry, Micro-Epsilon offers innovative measuring and inspection systems for thickness, profile and surface measurements. Performance and quality, as well as reliability of products and services have made Micro-Epsilon one of the leading suppliers of inspection systems for optical thickness measurement used in the metals industry. Our non-contact thickness measuring systems are used wherever high-precision thickness monitoring is required for control and quality assurance. Both in hot rolling mills, in continuous casting plants and in cold rolling mills and service centers, the Micro-Epsilon measuring systems operate reliably and with maximum precision. Numerous, successful installations in 13 countries around the world in milling lines and processing lines speak for themselves.

The optoCONTROL CLS1000 optoelectronic fiber optic sensor is suitable for use in automation thanks to its variable switching outputs. The CLS1000 is used for reliable position monitoring as well as for position and presence detection. The fiber optic sensor comprises a CFS sensor and a CLS1000 controller. The wide detection and operating ranges of up to 2000 mm make the fiber optic sensor ideal for the detection of components even at great distances. Due to the small design of the CFS sensors, the CLS1000 optoelectronic fiber optic sensor series is particularly suitable for use in confined installation spaces.

Operating the optoCONTROL CLS1000 controllers requires sensors that are used on the measuring point. Depending on the measurement task, the sensors can be individually combined. The high-quality sensors with fiber optics are characterized by small installation dimensions and robust materials. This makes them particularly suitable for mechanical stress and harsh ambient conditions such as high temperatures. The sensor can also be used in restricted areas as the sensor head requires a minimum of installation space.
