The non-contact encoder ProSpeed

Precise speed and length measurements are critical for controlling the production of continuous materials, sheet materials and piece goods. ProSpeed – the next generation LSV Laser Surface Velocimeters optimize production processes by providing reliable measurements. Polytec sensors increase the output worldwide in the metal, cable and converting industries. Due to the non-contact measurement princi-ple with laser precision, ProSpeed laser sensors eliminate common problems of traditional contact-wheel measurement methods such as damage to delicate surfaces, slippage and thermal expansion on almost any surface.

Achieve far more in your production process

The enhanced connectivity of the next generation sensor ProSpeed LSV-2100 provides access to configuration and process data – anywhere and anytime. Increase your flexibility and get direct feedback through touch display. Comfortably parametrize via web interface and allow concurrent data access with Ethernet and serial interface for up to four users or systems. The optical sensor determines the direction of motion and standstill conditions, with extended stand-off distances of up to 3m, adding flexibility for measurements under harsh conditions. The TPH thermo-protective housing offers additional protection for really challenging environments.

Integrating the new ProSpeed LSV-2100 into production process will increase yield, quality and throughput.
