Velocimetry
Controlling Strip Material Production with Laser Precision
Polytec laser surface velocimeters, known as LSVs for short, provide you with support when you’re monitoring continuous material and piece goods in the production process. They can be integrated in a very flexible way, are convenient to set up and yet are extremely easy to use and dependable in operation. It doesn’t matter whether you’re producing belts, pipes or profiles with a shiny or a matt surface – a Polytec LSV adapts to any task and measures the surface velocity and cut lengths of the items with zero contact and from a safe distance. The LSV product line includes compact sensors, modular systems and models certified according to MID.
Measurement Services
The range of Polytec measurement services we offer allows anyone to carry out high-precision length and velocity measurements using engineering services and system rentals. That way, you can make use of our ultra-modern measuring technology before investing in your own instrument.
We also offer our customers training sessions and application support services. Consult our non-contact length and speed measurement experts for advice and let usconvince you before you establish the reliable Polytec laser measuring technology at your plant.
Our experts are more than happy to help integrate your length and speed sensors to guarantee a smooth production process in your facilities. Benefit from non-contact measuring technology for reliable processes that are especially secure in the long term. Please don’t hesitate to contact our Technical Serviceteam should you have any pressing questions about our available instruments.
Compact yet Uncompromising
Polytec’s compact velocimeters allow you to contactlessly measure both the length and the velocity of continuous material and piece goods. The measuring device quickly and reliably provides you with length and velocity values for inspection and cut-to-length applications with the precision that can only be achieved through using a laser. The resulting reduced maintenance costs and increased output mean that you will see a fast return on the investment you made in your measuring device. Irrespective of whether your task at hand involves performing measurements on steel, shiny aluminum, oily sheet material, wire, cable or non-metallic materials such as wood, cardboard, building materials and textiles – you can rest assured that the LSV can take measurements on virtually any surface.

System Verification / Calibration
System Verification / Calibration ensures validity of the measurement results and certifies the Polytec measuring instruments to close the loop with your ISO Standard and QM regulations. Re-alignment and Calibration will be carried out and documented with our Certified Calibration Stand at Polytec Headquarters which also regularly follows calibration procedures traceable to the national standards of PTB in accordance with ISO and MID standards.
Preventive Maintenance
Highly sophisticated optical measurement equipment needs some limited, but very precise, care in order to maintain the original equipment specifications and precision. It includes cleaning, realigning of the optics if needed, and if further needed, replacement of worn parts as well as maintenance of the mechanical units and functional tests.
Therefore please have your instruments maintained at your closest Technical Service Center or at your location. If you wish, worn parts, like laser tubes can be replaced with a frequency matched to your usage to avoid unexpected down time at the moment when you need the equipment most. Take advantage of our exchange program which reduces your downtime.
Repair
In case a component of your Polytec System unexpectedly becomes defective we can provide fast and reliable repair with original spare parts, including maintenance of the entire system so that everything works flawlessly again. Standard spare parts we provide from stock. To keep your system up to the latest revisions, we supply parts with the latest improvements and firmware revisions included.
