Laser triangulation sensor
OPTIMESS MSR
The OPTIMESS MSR laser sensor works according to the triangulation principle. Due to its high robustness, the sensor is especially suitable for use on rail vehicles, e.g. for corrugation and waviness measurement as well as roughness measurement. Applications in the industrial sector in demanding environments are also part of the field of application. This sensor is characterised by a high degree of independence of the measuring accuracy on different surfaces and from ambient light.
The processor integrated in the sensor processes the optical distance information and outputs it as an analogue value or via the CAN bus.
