AR100 Ultra Compact Laser Displacement Sensor

The AR100 laser position sensors are ultra compact devices for dimensional measurement / The unit uses laser triangulation principles to accurately measure athigh speeds. The same mini enclosure houses models with ranges from 20 to 500 mm. Sensor options include blue laser diodes.

Principles of Operation

The AR100 is a triangulation sensor that measures distance by projecting a beam of laser light that creates a    spot on a target surface. Reflected light from the surface is viewed from an angle by a CMOS detector array inside the AR100 sensor. The target’s distance is calculated from the image pixel data using the sensor’s microprocessor. The distance is transmitted through serial communications, analog outputs are available.

A variety of models ( AR100-25 / AR100-50 / AR100-100 / AR100-250 / AR100-500 ) are specified, each to allow a different measurement range and standoff.

Definitions

Span: Working distance between measurement endpoints over which the sensor will reliably measure displacement
Standoff: Offset distance from the face of the sensor to the middle of the span. Accuracy is greatest at the standoff distance and the laser spot size is smallest at this focal point.

Linearity: The largest deviation from a best-fit straight line over the measurement range, created by data from the sensor with reference taken from a true distance scale. Stated as +/-% of the Span.
Resolution: Smallest increment of change in distance that a sensor can detect. Stated as % of the Span.
Sample Rate: Speed that data samples are obtained from the sensor.

AR700 Laser Displacement Sensor

Acuity introduces the AR700 series of laser displacement sensor for measuring position and object dimensions. Built on a decade of success with the predecessor AR600 laser sensor, industry users demanded faster and more accurate non-contact metrology equipment. The AccuRange 700 boasts output speeds to 9400 Hz and resolutions (model dependent) as low as one sixth of a micrometer.

The unit is very compact, measuring approximately 1 x 2 x 3" (25 x 50 x 75 mm), almost 80% smaller than its AR600 predecessor.  

This Acuity digital sensor has selectable speeds up to 9400 Hz (when using 3-Byte Binary Data format). Don't be fooled by competitor's claims of higher speeds. Acuity laser distance sensors are unique and our specifications are straightforward. The device will in fact output 9400 distance readings in a single second. This is unlike our competitors who often quote the maximum sampling rate of their detector. This number is not real because the user will never see data output rates that high through serial or analog interfaces or the cumbersome controllers that are required to operate their sensor heads.
