Micro-Epsilon Messtechnik robot-guided sensors

Wednesday, 30 May, 2012 | Supplied by: Bestech Australia Pty Ltd


Bestech Australia provides precise yet flexible laser sensing solutions for robot measurement tasks. Non-contact sensors can be installed on a robot arm for dynamic distance measurements and its data guides the tools or devices attached to the robot arms.

Displacement laser triangulation sensors from Micro-Epsilon Messtechnik are suitable for such tasks. These small sensors have integrated electronics. Measuring ranges are from 2 to 1000 mm with fast measuring cycles of up to 50 kHz.

For more complex measurement tasks, the gapControl sensor can be installed on the arm for measuring various types of gap. Here, gap measurement data is used to guide the robot along the car or for controlling welding robots.

For detecting paintwork defects on entire car bodies, the reflectControl system can be integrated to the robot and, by using deflectometry, the surface is examined to micrometre accuracy, the company claims. A robot continuously adjusts the position of the system to help complete measurements within a short time frame.
