LED micrometer optoCONTROL 2700
The optoCONTROL 2700 is a compact LED micrometer for the precise measurement of diameter, gap, edge and segment. The micrometer is characterized by an extremely high accuracy and measuring rate. As the controller is integrated in the receiver, the cabling and mounting work is reduced to a minimum. Two models with measuring ranges of 10 and 40 mm open up numerous fields of application in automation and quality assurance. Thanks to the active inclination correction, objects tilted by up to 63° are also detected extremely precisely. The configuration is performed conveniently via the web interface and enables the parameter set up of the video signal, filter and various measurement modes. In set-up mode, a shadow image can be used for simple alignment of the measuring object. The excellent price-performance ratio rounds off the performance package.
