Laser length sensors and laser gauges can detect distances up to 3,000 metres without making touch with the object being measured. In machine building and handling equipment, these sensors are utilised for location and type categorization.
In order to detect distances between 0.5 and 3000m, laser distance sensors employ the laser time-of-flight principle. Depending on the environment and the distance, the sensors can be utilised with or without reflector film.
The Global Laser Length Sensor market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
With wintec, Wenglor Sensoric has launched its most recent line of long-range laser distance sensors, pushing the envelope on photoelectric sensor performance.
The integrated “Dynamic Sensitivity” (DS) technology has not only significantly improved the performance of the transit time sensors, which are available in plastic or stainless steel 316L housing, but also combines all the features of the well-known Wintec series, which has been revolutionising the automation industry.
The new Wintec has various advantages, including a NA operating range of up to 10,000 mm, a maximum repeatability of 3 mm, and insensitivity to ambient light up to 100,000 lux.
The most recent IO-Link 1.1 standard with COM3 allows for the writing of process data, the calling up of numerous status messages such as temperature or ambient light alerts, and even the recording of impact and shock loads.
Wintec provides innovative choices for process monitoring—the operative term here being condition monitoring—in addition to optical performance. Wintec’s long-range laser distance sensors work regardless of an object’s colour, gloss, surface structure, or inclination angle owing to the transit time measuring method.
The sensors won’t affect one another even if they are put next to or even across from one another. Wintec (wenglor interference-free technology) is one of the most widely used photoelectric sensors in the automation sector because of this capacity.
The sensors also offer a very quick warm-up time, a front LED for integrated installation in shuttle systems, for example, and are reliable down to -40 °C in temperature. When compared to traditional transit time sensors, simple operation and low power consumption result in considerable time and money savings for consumers.
