The laser profile sensor is the equivalent using 1024 closely-spaced, single-point laser sensors to measure across a surface. Acuity has several AP620 sensors with varying ranges (Z axis) and Fields of View (X axis). In additon to measuring profiles and shapes, the line sensor is frequently used for measuring dimensions for radius, diameter, height, b, etc.
This profile measuring instrument is fast, sampling upto 250 line scans per second. The profile data is transmitted directly from the sensor head via ethernet to a host computer. No special controller is required to operate the device.
