Temperature Sensors | Position and Laser Sensors | Displacement Sensors and Transducers

Displacement Sensors and Position Sensors from Micro Epsilon utilise many different measurement principles. Displacement Sensors and Position Sensors are the generic names that have been given to the many different sensor technologies which have been developed over the years. One of the most common measurement principles used for displacement currently is Laser Sensors.

This family of displacement sensors moves from one dimensional measurement into 2D and 3D measurement. The product range is split into two categories: Laser Profile Sensors and Thru-Beam and Laser Optical Micrometers. Both sensing technologies integrate smart signal processing to output an actual measurement value from a 2 dimensional plane, e.g. diameter, gap or edge positioning. By moving the sensor in the 3rd axis a 3D point cloud can be captured.

Temperature Sensors from the thermoMETER range measure the temperature of an object using the infrared wavelength emitted from that target. With this method the infrared thermoMETER sensors measure precise, wear free and without any physical effect or impact on the target. IR temperature sensors and IR Thermal Imagers are used in a variety of applications in virtually every industry from R&D to production and in-process monitoring and control.

Micro-Epsilon itself has acquired particular competence in meeting the needs of individual customers, i.e. adapting sensors individually. Therefore, decisive design modifications besides simple modifications such as alternative output types or cables can be achieved. Moreover, there are exclusive benefits for the customer. Often know-how from other projects can be used which allows fast and thoughtful solutions. Therefore, sensors adapted to customer requirements can be easily adjusted to ambient conditions.

ASCOspeed is used for speed and length measurement in the metalworking industry. In metallurgical applications the non-contact speed measurement is a decisive factor for process stability. Contacting or slipping units are therefore replaced successfully.

Non Contact Measurement Systems from Micro Epsilon are known throughout the world as competent and world leading non contact measurement systems. For more than 25 years, the company has designed and manufactured measurement systems for many large, well known companies and delivered them worldwide. Our systems have been developed for specific industries, this includes:
