Selecting a Measurement Sensor

Select the application you are interested in.

2D Shape / 3D Shape

The sensors introduced here measure a target's shape. This is done either by scanning over the target with a single-point optical sensor or using a laser line to generate a 2D profile of the surface. The recommended setup will vary depending on target condition and size. Contact your nearest sales office for details.

Profile measurement can be performed using a spot laser to scan the target. Targets can be measured regardless of material or colour.
Ultra-compact, lightweight, coaxial measurement design ensures simple installation on robots and XY stages.

Key Points for Selection

  • High-accuracy non-contact measurement on any surface
  • Ultra-compact and lightweight for easy installation
  • Repeatable and accurate measurement across a wide range

2D Triangulation Reflection Method
LJ Series
LJ Series

The shape of a target's cross section is instantly measured using a line laser. Sensors include a variety of measurement tools for detecting height, width, and cross sectional area. Inspection is performed after obtaining the 3D shape by incorporating the waveform data.

Point of selection

  • Possible to measure 2D height within a line
  • Unlimited target selection at ultra-high speeds
  • Ability to output waveform data

High-precision profiling of fine surface details is possible using a ⌀3.5 um beam spot.

Key Points for Selection

  • Ultra-small spot as small as ø3.5 μm
  • No dead angles on step heights or uneven surfaces
  • Ultra-high accuracy through non-contact measurement
