3D Laser Profile Scanner now with optional Ethernet Connectivity

For users who regularly work with open connectivity systems, the new Ethernet network option is ideal. Using this interface, the laser profile scanner can be quickly integrated to existing industrial networks. The configuration of the scanner is carried out using a supplied configuration programme, which enables the scanner to be configured to a unique IP address. This means the profile data transmission can also be performed via this interface.

The scanCONTROL 2700 provides up to 64,000 calibrated measuring points per second in real time via an Ethernet or FireWire interface, without requiring any additional hardware (controller). The software development kit (SDK) and function library (LLT.dll) supplied as standard with the sensor provide the user with a communications platform that offers maximum flexibility and performance via direct integration with most common programming languages.

The scanCONTROL 2700 series of laser profile scanners is available with measuring ranges of 25mm, 50mm and 100mm. The models in the 2700 series have a compact housing with an integrated controller and offer an attractive price/performance ratio. This compact design means the scanner is suitable for a wide range of machine designs and automation systems, where space is often restricted.
