Laser Works With Every Paint Finish!
The automotive industry often faces the task of positioning
on already painted car body panels using a robot.
For this purpose, the distance between robot and body component
must be detected with an accuracy of only a few tenths of a millimetre.
As the modern car production line mixes the various colours available,
any sensor used must be able to contend with different paint finishes
from white to black to metallic, the dynamic range of the employed
laser sensor has to meet the highest demands.
The Sensor Instruments model R-LAS laser sensor uses automatic
laser power correction to adapt itself without any problems to the
respective surface, which means that bright and dark objects can
be detected with the highest accuracy.
Sensors Instruments GmbH have appointed Ixthus Instrumentation
to provide sales and technical support in the UK and Ireland. Their
product range also includes Laser Distance and Line Sensors,
Colour and Luminescence Measurement, Fork and Frame Reflective
Light Barriers.
