Entry-level 3D profile sensor

The Gocator 2100 series is said to bring advanced 3D smart imaging capabilities to a wider market, providing factories with a greater range of tools to cost-effectively improve efficiencies in product validation. 

Laser line measurements of cross-sectional shapes of parts and materials surfaces can be collected to create 3D point clouds representing whole parts for performing volumetric measurements. The same sensor can also generate detailed laser intensity images for use with common 2D image processing software.

Improvements include a smaller footprint for easier integration into tight spaces and existing control systems; standardised connectors and cables for reduced system complexity; low latency communication with Gigabit Ethernet communication; and Gocator Firmware 4.x support.

This pre-calibrated scanning and inspection solution has the ability to handle complicated inspection tasks. It is available in five models offering a measurement range from 80 to 800mm. The series is fully scalable, allowing multiple sensors to seamlessly link together to handle wider targets. With no additional software to install, Gocator’s out-of-the-box setup and configuration is fast and easy. In addition, users can also easily upgrade to other Gocator models, including the higher resolution Gocator 2300, without reconfiguring their operations.
