Product Description
Introducing ELCO 3D Smart Laser Profile Sensors
ELCO’s 3D Smart Laser Profile Sensors deliver high-precision measurement and inspection capabilities designed for demanding industrial automation environments. These sensors use triangulation-based laser scanning to generate detailed 3D profiles of moving parts and surfaces—enabling real-time quality control, dimensional analysis, and object positioning. Rugged, compact, and easily integrated into modern production lines, they offer exceptional performance in both inline and standalone applications.
High-Resolution 3D Profiling
ELCO’s laser profile sensors capture exact contour and surface data using advanced CMOS imaging and laser triangulation. With sub-millimeter accuracy and fast frame rates, they support applications such as edge detection, gap measurement, weld seam inspection, and profile matching—across a wide range of materials and geometries.
Smart Data Processing
Equipped with built-in data evaluation and customizable measurement tools, these sensors eliminate the need for separate control systems. Real-time output of key parameters—like height, width, angles, and step differences—allows for immediate decisions on part quality or pass/fail status. Integration with PLCs, HMIs, and SCADA systems is simple through Ethernet, digital I/O, and optional fieldbus interfaces.
Built for Industrial Demands
Housed in robust, IP-rated enclosures, ELCO’s 3D profile sensors are designed to withstand harsh conditions such as vibration, dust, moisture, and temperature variation. Their compact footprint and flexible mounting options make them ideal for tight spaces on conveyors, robots, or inspection fixtures—whether retrofitting legacy systems or supporting new installations.
Versatile Applications
From automotive and metalworking to electronics, packaging, and material handling, ELCO 3D laser sensors deliver versatile performance across industries. Typical use cases include inline defect detection, dimensional conformity checks, alignment verification, and profile matching—ensuring consistent quality and production efficiency in real time.
