How to choose the appropriate measurement range and accuracy for laser displacement and ranging?

A:


When selecting the measurement range and accuracy of laser displacement and ranging sensors, you can refer to the following points:

1. Application requirements: Determine the distance range and required accuracy of the object to be measured. For example, a high-precision short-distance sensor is used for micro-displacement detection, and a ranging type is selected for long-distance targets.

2. Resolution and repeatability: Check the minimum resolvable unit of the sensor and the stability of repeated measurements to ensure that it meets the actual process requirements.

3. Target characteristics: Select the appropriate model according to the material, color, and reflectivity of the object. The reflective surface or dark surface will affect the accuracy and stability.

4. Installation space: Determine the sensor volume and detection distance according to the actual equipment space to avoid blind spots.

5. Environmental factors: Consider whether it is used in high temperature, strong light, vibration and other environments, and choose a model with temperature compensation, filtering or stronger stability.

6. Budget and performance balance: Select a product with appropriate cost performance while meeting the measurement accuracy and reliability.

By comprehensively comparing the measurement distance, accuracy level and environmental adaptability, the most suitable laser sensor model can be selected.
