Optical micrometers, or laser scanning micrometers, are advanced non-contact dimensional measurement systems, considered the gold standard for accuracy and speed in the industry. They are indispensable tools in modern production lines, enabling 100% automation of quality control and ensuring all products meet the most stringent dimensional tolerances.
1. General Introduction to Optical Micrometers / Laser Scanning Micrometers
Optical micrometers operate on the principle of creating a laser light "shield" (laser band) and using a high-sensitivity CCD or CMOS receiver to detect the "shadow" of the object passing through. From there, a high-speed processor calculates dimensions such as outer diameter, gap, and edge position with micron-level accuracy and repeatability. The highlight of optical micrometers is their extremely high sampling rate, allowing for accurate measurements even on objects moving at very high speeds without being affected. The ability to simultaneously measure multiple points on the same object makes it a comprehensive and efficient inspection tool.
2. Optical Micrometer / Laser Scanning Micrometer Applications
- Outer Diameter Measurement: Continuously measure the diameter of electrical wires, cables, metal shafts, plastic pipes, optical fibers, and medical injectors directly on the production line.
- Gas Measurement: Accurately measure the gap between rollers in a rolling mill, the gap between spark plug electrodes, or the distance between machine parts.
- Web Guiding: Monitor and control the edge position of rolled materials such as paper, film, sheet metal, and fabric to ensure they are aligned.
- Shape and Profile Inspection: Inspect the profile and dimensions of products with complex shapes such as electrical connectors, medical devices, and crankshafts.
- Product Defect Detection: Detect defects such as bulges, dents, Surface roughness and taper of the product.
- Vibration and runout measurement: Measure the vibration and runout of rotating shafts and rollers, ensuring they operate within permissible limits.
- Position check: Check the relative position between components in an assembly, ensuring the accuracy of the assembly process.
