scanCONTROL 8500 laser scanners set new standards in the field of industrial 3D measurement technology. As the smallest SMART 3D laser scanners in their class, offering 4K resolution, the series combines the highest measurement performance with minimal space requirements, creating optimal conditions for performing precise in-line measurements in modern production environments.
Integrated 3D data processing for maximum versatility
The key advantage is the integrated 3D data processing directly in the sensor. In addition to 2D evaluation, measurement values can also be fully calculated in the sensor based on 3D data and transmitted directly to the controller via Industrial Ethernet. Alternatively, calibrated 3D point clouds or 2D profile data can be generated for external processing. Users receive exactly the data they need for their specific application, with minimal data burden and maximum flexibility.
Extremely compact design for maximum integration flexibility
Thanks to their exceptionally compact design, scanCONTROL 8500 laser profilometers offer great freedom of integration. They are up to 4.8 times more compact than comparable systems, making them much easier to integrate into machines, installations and retrofit solutions. This reduces design and integration work and provides greater freedom in arranging machines.
4K resolution with full usability
The new 4K sensor array with up to 4,224 measurement points per profile and a profiling frequency of up to 10 kHz and up to 25 million points per second ensures high measurement accuracy. The decisive factor here is actual usability: the sensor optics have been designed to take full advantage of 4K resolution. This ensures precise and reliable measurement results, even for complex structures.
Reliable measurement results even on difficult surfaces
Another advantage is the innovative green laser technology. It combines the advantages of red and blue lasers, thus shortening the exposure time, reducing noise and limiting the influence of ambient light. At the same time, users gain great flexibility with changing materials and surfaces. This makes these sensors extremely versatile and are widely used in machine construction, automation, battery production, robotics, electronics manufacturing and medical technology.
Developed with modern production processes in mind
The series ranges from the attractive price-performance ratio scanCONTROL 8200 to the high-performance scanCONTROL 8500 and is available in measuring ranges of 25, 50 and 100 mm. scanCONTROL 8500 sensors represent a new generation of laser profile measurement technology: more compact. More flexible. Bard
