With printing processes, the exact height of the print head is a crucial factor for the quality of the final product. High-speed distance measurement against different material surfaces and reliable edge detection enable a fast readjustment process.

Smart laser triangulation displacement sensor

With printing, soldering and assembling processes of printed circuit boards, the exact height positioning of the print head is crucial for a flawless process. optoNCDT laser sensors enable precise positioning of the print head. Regardless of surface reflections, these sensors provide precise measurement results which are used to adjust the height and to detect the edges.

With selective laser sintering, the building platform is lowered after each melting cycle by a defined value which corresponds to the required Z resolution. Inductive displacement sensors based on eddy currents monitor this building platform in order to allow the print head to be aligned in parallel.

Compact, inductive displacement measuring system for serial applications

In order to calculate the robot path, scanCONTROL laser scanners determine the areas that need to be welded. Providing a high profile resolution and profile frequency, these laser scanners enable quick repairs.
