Laser sensors with outstanding precision and speed for high-end applications
The optoNCDT 5500 laser sensors set new standards in high-precision laser distance measurement. With submicron accuracy and a measuring rate up to 150 kHz, the sensors provide reliable results on all surfaces. The compact sensor design can be integrated even in confined installation spaces - no additional controller required.
Maximum performance in the smallest of spaces - the optoNCDT 5500 series.

Versatile use
The optoNCDT 5500 sensors are available with different measuring ranges. In addition to the standard measuring range, an extended measuring range can be used, which significantly expands the fields of use. With IP67 protection and high resistance to ambient light, the laser sensors can also be used in challenging environmental conditions.
Highest performance: A new class of laser triangulation sensors
The optoNCDT 5500 from Micro-Epsilon represents the latest performance class among laser triangulation sensors. With its increased measuring rate up to 150 kHz, the sensor is ideal for highly dynamic measurement tasks. It delivers extremely precise measurement results, even on rapidly changing and poorly reflective surfaces. Its high repeatability enables measurements with submicron precision.
Industrial Ethernet for easy integration
The optoNCDT 5500 laser sensors are available with the integrated industrial Ethernet interfaces PROFINET and EtherCAT. You can integrate the full sensor performance directly into the control system without any additional interface module.
Advanced Surface Compensation - The intelligent exposure control for all surfaces
The optoNCDT 5500 is equipped with an intelligent surface control feature. New algorithms enable fast exposure control and therefore stable measurement results on surfaces where changing reflections occur. In addition, the sensor is extremely resistant to ambient light and can also be used in strongly illuminated environments. The new algorithms compensate for ambient light up to 200,000 lux.
Simple mounting and initial operation
It is not necessary to align the sensor due to patented, repeatable mounting using mounting sleeves. This enables both easy sensor replacement and even higher precision in solving measurement tasks. Due to its small dimensions and the integrated controller, the laser sensor can also be installed in confined spaces. A web interface with ready-made presets makes the sensor immediately ready for use. The ILD5500 is more compact than its predecessor ILD2300. To enable a seamless changeover, Micro-Epsilon offers an adapter plate for a quick switch from ILD2300 to ILD5500.
