OPTIMAL DISTANCE MEASUREMENT

IN AUTOMATION

In automation, there are the most diverse application scenarios:

from measurements of fill level, object positioning, to quality control. The diverse requirements, e.g. in relation to the object surface quality or the necessary precision, result from the specific application task.
High resolutions, measurements on shiny or dark objects, long ranges and high ambient light immunity – the selection of the appropriate sensor plays a decisive role here. di-soric offers the perfect sensors for contactless distance measurement for these applications in automation.

For us,

optimal distance measurement in automation

means solving the most diverse applications with as few products as possible.

di-soric’s portfolio includes various product series of optical distance sensors and ultrasonic sensors that are designed for contactless distance measurement. Our sensors impress with their innovative IO-Link functions, various sizes and strong performance characteristics in all technologies.

The implemented, innovative IO-Link functions make certain measuring tasks, such as thickness measurement or the avoidance of mutual influencing of several sensors, possible in one application in the first place.

ASSEMBLY AND HANDLING TECHNOLOGY

In assembly machines, individual parts are supplied, assembled and joined in an automated fashion. Each processing step is monitored. Our sensors ensure the measurement of distances in the mm or µm range, control fill levels and positioning processes, monitor size accuracy and the presence of objects. In this way, di-soric makes its contribution to the assembly of components and in the production of new products in the electronics, medical or automotive industries.
