scanCONTROL 30xx high performance laser profile scanners combine state-of-the-art technology, the highest performance and a diverse range of applications. In automation, production and process monitoring as well as quality control, scanners solve measurement tasks on demanding surfaces with high dynamics. Take advantage of multiple interfaces such as Ethernet, Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT and PROFINET for integration purposes.

Confocal sensors precisely determine distances on different surfaces and measure the thickness of transparent materials with the highest precision. Micro-Epsilon has extended its product range with two new sensors that open up multiple new application areas. Due to its high tilt angle, the confocalDT IFS2407-3 is particularly designed for curved surfaces. The IFS2404/90-2 is designed for restricted installation spaces, primarily for serial applications. The 90° lens enables space-saving installation into plant and machines.

Viral epidemics such as the current coronavirus (COVID-19) have created a global demand for infrared cameras that are able to screen for a fever condition in humans. Many businesses wish to protect their ...

Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has extended its range of miniature controllers for inductive displacement sensors with two new multi-channel models. Together, the complete range of controllers ...

As a supplier of thermal imaging cameras we are fielding many questions from existing and prospective customers with regards to their use to screen the population for COVID-19. If you already have one ...

Conventional fibre optic colour sensors provide a single, bundled light beam, which is not sufficient to properly measure structured and shiny (reflective), metallic surfaces. Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has introduced a range of circular fibre optic colour recognition sensors that enable uniform (homogeneous) illumination around the measurement spot. This means measurement results are not only more stable and reliable, but also more precise, allowing the slightest colour differences to be detected during manufacturing and assembly processes.

Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has improved and updated its range of confocal chromatic sensors with two new innovative sensors, the confocalDT IFS2407-3 and the confocalDT IFS2404 / 90-2.

Precision sensor manufacturer Micro-Epsilon has launched a range of compact, robust draw-wire displacement sensors designed specifically for high volume OEM industrial applications with IP69(K) ingress rating.

The eddyNCDT 3070 is a new, powerful eddy current measurement system from Micro-Epsilon that is suitable for high precision displacement, distance, position, runout, extension, thermal expansion and oil film thickness measurements in harsh industrial environments. The system is designed to work with the sub-miniature range of sensors that offer measuring ranges of less than 1mm and that measure to sub-micron accuracies at a frequency response up to 20kHz.

Considering the Coronavirus outbreak and following UK Government guidelines, Micro-Epsilon UK has introduced precautionary measures to protect its staff and customers in the challenging times ahead.

Laser triangulation sensors from Micro-Epsilon are being used to measure the lateral position of rail bogie wheels relative to the rail head in a groundbreaking rail traction technology project by Derby-based company, SET Limited.
