Continue readingA very common application is measuring the diameter of an object. In this video, we show how to use the “Sessions” feature in the Acuity Touch Panel display to measure the diameter of a battery.
Continue readingOne method for monitoring inventory stacks and inventory management systems is using non-contact thickness measurement either during production, at an inspection station, or post-production.
Continue readingOur new Sessions allows the Touch Panel to detect when an object enters the sensor’s range and displays the average, maximum, minimum, and mode of the measurements after it passes by. As the name “Sessions” implies, this can be done with as many sequences as you need to get your highly accurate measurement.

Continue readingA company has dump trucks bringing materials into one of their buildings, but when the drivers dump their load, they don’t always remember to lower the dump box back into position before trying to drive out. After some costly repairs they came to us for help.
Continue readingCrane rail thickness solution uses both short range and long range laser sensors, and reduces measurement of wear-and-tear on rail flanges from 3 months to 1 night.
Continue readingA year or two ago, a process engineer approached the Acuity team looking for a solution to measure the thickness of their rubber product directly on the production line. The customer was looking to measure the thickness of the material in a few locations – a common ask for thickness measurements.
