Reliably Measure Objects with Baumer's Edge Sensor PosCon 3D

Nov. 16, 2014
Edge sensor PosCon 3D can reliably measure objects independent of their color and surface, and regardless of their movement toward and away from the sensor.


Edge sensor PosCon 3D can reliably measure objects independent of their color and surface, and regardless of their movement toward and away from the sensor. The sensor’s design allows easy system integration in an early planning stage using the sensor's CAD data. This ensures tight tolerances on beam placement. The unit reliably detects edge positions even wheninstalled in a non-vertical position with a lateral angle up to 30°. It identifies object width in fractions of a second with an accuracy of 0.02 mm. PosCon 3D can also identify an object’s center position.
