Long Range Analog Laser Sensor from Keyence Corp.


Itasca, IL — New from Keyence is its new IL Series analog laser sensor with ultra long range. The product represents a significant advance- ment in laser displacement technolo- gy, incorporating performance fea- tures typically not found in other sys- tems. The measurement range of this compact triangulation-based laser sensor reaches a full 11.48-ft (3.5m) with 3.94mil (100µm) repeatability, regardless of target color. An easy-to-use interface offers a


simple approach to measuring height, thickness, liquid fill level, roll


diameter, part positioning, width, long distance or hot metal part sens- ing. The IL Series control system includes numerous built-in, applica- tion specific operation modes includ- ing thickness and step height, enabling most installations to be con- figured and operational within sec- onds after powering on the system. The multi-function amplifier


design offers a die cast steel sensor head (IP-67) to withstand almost any environment. Although the sensor head is metal, it weighs only 2.1-oz. making it suitable for robotic appli-


cations when used with the compa- ny’s specialty torsion-rated cable. The IL Series has a dedicated


mode that allows calibration to be completed in 3 simple steps. Also included is a height difference filter function which automatically recog- nizes abrupt changes in step height and delivers a one-shot output for each step. For stability, the system has an ambient light elimination function in order to counteract ambient light interference from overhead lights. Unlike sensor head only mod- els, the IL Series has many optional


settings to tackle most sensing needs. For example, both NPN and PNP outputs are supported. Five types of analog outputs can be select- ed. For quick product changeover, 4

patterns of tolerance values can be set. Both panel mount and DIN-rail mount models are available. Finally, several communications choices are possible including analog, RS-232


and Ethernet/IP. Contact: Keyence Corporation of America, 1100 N. Arlington Heights
