Optical distance sensor OLM100 series

RS-485CANopenRS-422

High travel speed linked to precise positioning increases system efficiency and improves throughput Camera-based system with no moving parts increases the sensor's service life, thus reducing lifecycle costs considerably Minimal housing dimensions combined with the latest industrial interfaces ensure integration into almost any system design, even where space is limited Serial interfaces (RS-422, RS-485, SSI, and CANopen) offer highest flexibility and easiest system integration, hence saving costs for interface converters and protocol adaption Great flexibility in a small housing Move to a position with pinpoint accuracy: The OLM100 enables quick ramp-up and ramp-down times, optimizing work processes. Fast travel speeds, high repeatability, and fast output rates make the OLM100 ideal for many applications, such as electrical overhead conveyors, rotating tables, and transport skids. At a glance Highly accurate camera-based bar code positioning system Traversing speeds of up to 4 m/s can be achieved Wear and maintenance-free thanks to camera technology Compact, extremely rugged magnesium housing Wide range of interfaces: SSI, RS-422, RS-485, and CANopen Applications Fields of applications Positioning of electrical overhead conveyor vehicles Anti-collision monitoring of electrical overhead conveyor vehicles Vertical and horizontal positioning of storage and retrieval units Positioning of curved-track storage and retrieval units Positioning and anti-collision of overhead cranes Positioning and anti-collision of shuttles
