The new thicknessSENSOR ILD1420LL offers even more precision, above all for thickness measurements of metal objects. The ready-to-use sensor system provides non-contact measurement of the thickness of strip and sheet materials. A special feature is the oval light spot of the sensor, which achieves even higher measurement accuracy on textured and rough surfaces. The sensor systems are available for the measuring ranges 10 mm and 25 mm with measuring widths of from 200 to 400 mm.

The colorSENSOR CFO250 is a high-performance color sensor - ideally suited to industrial color inspection during production when high speeds are required. With the CFO250, a fast raw data supplier joins the powerful controller portfolio. Raw data can be transmitted directly to the PLC in Lab or XYZ at up to 500 Hz. Edge or level triggers control for how long or how many measured values are output.
Read moreThe new optoNCDT ILR1171-125 laser distance sensor is used for distance measurements up to 270 m and particularly impresses in outdoor measurements. Thanks to the time-of-flight principle and a high measuring rate of up to 40 kHz, this robust sensor achieves a high signal strength and thus delivers stable and precise results even in fog and rain. The high temperature stability allows applications at temperatures from -40 °C to +60 °C. Due to its compact dimensions, the sensor can also be integrated into confined installation spaces.
Read moreThe confocalDT IFD2411 measuring system combines most compact design and highest performance with integrated Industrial Ethernet. It offers maximum application flexibility for industrial measurement tasks – both for distance and thickness measurements of transparent objects. Thanks to the integrated Industrial Ethernet interface (EtherCAT), you integrate the full sensor performance directly into the PLC. This opens up numerous possible applications, including in machine building as well as in glass and smartphone production.
Read moreThe confocalDT IFD2410 and IFD2415 sensors represent a new generation of confocal sensors. These sensor systems have an integrated controller, which significantly simplifies installation. Several measuring ranges and accuracy classes open up a wide range of measurement tasks, e.g., for series use in coordinate measuring machines, for inline thickness monitoring of flat glass and for testing electronic components. With measuring rates up to 25 kHz, even dynamic measurements can be performed reliably.
Read moreIf the installation requires measurements at a large distance, long-range laser sensors from Micro-Epsilon are used. The new optoNCDT 1760-1000 measures accurately even at distances up to 2 m and, at the same time, quickly at up to 7.5 kHz. This sensor also features real-time surface compensation that enables accurate results on a wide range of surfaces.
Read moreFor displacement and distance measurements at ambient temperatures up to +800 °C, Micro-Epsilon now offers the robust, capacitive sensor system capaNCDT 6228. Its high temperature stability and exceptionally high linearity enables precise results even in challenging ambient conditions.

For tomorrow’s industrial production, the following characteristics are key: miniaturization, ease of integration, compatibility, scalability and high performance - with more precision. Our new interferometers provide unprecedented accuracy in industrial distance and thickness measurements. With our high-resolution confocal chromatic sensors, we also present a new product. They impress with their high performance and an excellent price-performance ratio for series applications.
Read moreCarbon ribbons are used for interior components but also in the construction of aircraft. To produce narrow carbon ribbons, wide belts are cut into individual strips, spooled onto rolls and measured to the micrometer during this process. For these measurement tasks, precise optoCONTROL 2520 micrometers are used. These are designed for dynamic measurement tasks in industrial areas.
