VL SPEED & LENGHT
Products

Non-contact measurement of speed, length and position without scale or point of reference
Compatible with multiple materials, surfaces and colours
Very high accuracy and repeatability
Class 1 laser scanning system
Robust design with compact dimensions and low weight
Incremental interface TTL or HTL
Speed range up to 10 m/s
Counting forwards and backwards
Opens up a new range of measurement possibilities even with delicate, soft or slippery materials
Optical detection prevents damage to or contamination of the measured material, which results in greater
product quality
Easy installation and commissioning in existing applications thanks to the standard
interface encoder and compact dimensions
Measuring speed and resulting length, to position a measurement of direction in different
sectors, such as:
- Consumer goods such as packaging, digital printing
- Machine construction such as extrusion, surface treatment
- Tyre industry
- Battery production and solar industry
- Lifts
- Storage and conveyor belts
- Electrical cables sheathed and braided
- Plastic, rubber and metal hoses
Device details
- Compatible with various materials:
Compatible with various materials: Paper, cardboard, wallpaper, plastic foil,
non-wovens and fibre, textiles,
metal, steel steeling, metal sheeting,
ceramics, building material, plastic, rubber,
solid wood, wood derivatives, veneers, laminates, wood fibre - Significant advantages over measuring wheel encoders
- Delicate surfaces (which could be damaged by measuring wheels)
- Soft and very flexible material (extrusion, rubber, …)
- Length measurement on goods in pieces
- Restrictions on use:
Restrictions on use: transparent material (glass, highly transparent films),
highly polished and sanded surfaces (in which case special mounting provisions must be checked)
