About Atonm Laser Displacement Sensor

The Atonm Laser Displacement Sensor LDS-H030 adopts advanced laser technology and high-performance photodetectors to achieve high-precision position measurement. Its micron-level repeatability makes it ideal for metal plate flatness detection.

Working Principle

The Laser Displacement Sensor works by emitting and receiving a laser beam. The sensor emits a laser onto the target and the photodetector receives the reflected beam. By measuring the reflection characteristics, the sensor can accurately calculate the distance between the sensor and the target.

Flatness Detection Process

1. Leveling operation: The customer’s hydraulic precision leveling machine levels metal materials to the required flatness.

2. Laser displacement application: Installed on the leveling machine detection system, the laser displacement sensor measures flatness in real time.

3. Data analysis: Collected data are processed with advanced algorithms to generate detailed flatness and straightness reports, which help engineers adjust leveling parameters to ensure product quality.

Technical Advantages

1. Micron-level precision: The Atonm Laser Displacement Sensor provides excellent micron-level positioning accuracy.

2. Real-time monitoring: The sensor enables real-time monitoring of small surface changes, allowing timely adjustments.

3. Cost-effectiveness: The Atonm laser displacement sensor delivers high performance at a relatively low cost, offering customers a high value solution.
