Gap Measurement

Lasers are often used for quality assurance for the fit and finish on household appliances. Laser scanners provide a robust method to precisely monitor gap position while creating an automated process.

Laser scanners are used to track and detect weld seams using laser line triangulation, providing a robust method for controlling the position of welding torches and ultrasonic test probes for weld inspection.

A customer has an application where they needed to be able to measure the width of a woven material very accurately as it is being made. The customer decided to use the Acuity AP820-80 laser line sensor that projects a laser line of 580 points across a laser line of a 2.5″ length.
