ZX1-ZX2 Laser Distance Measurement Sensors
Stable, easy and affordable laser measurement sensor
The new ZX1-ZX2 laser sensors have the highest performance in their class in terms of accuracy and speed in all linear displacement measurement applications. Using the advanced HSDR-CMOS image cell, high measurement accuracy is achieved even on the most challenging surfaces.
Dynamic adjustment of laser light intensity
The ZX2 constantly monitors the received light level and adjusts the laser diode output to compensate, and all this happens in a 60μs time cycle.
In this way, stable measurement is achieved on surfaces ranging from highly absorbent to highly reflective without loss of accuracy.
Thanks to the dynamic laser intensity adjustment algorithm, stable measurements are enabled for any color or surface condition, including metals, black surfaces and transparent materials.

Easy and User-Friendly Structure
Smart tuning (PAT.P)
The ideal configuration for stable measurements is achieved with a single button with the new feature "smart setting" and no longer depends on the skill of the user. A reliable configuration is achieved with three adjustment methods that can be selected to suit the type of object and surface conditions to be measured.
Reliable measurements in harsh environments
IP67 protection class allows the sensor to be used in harsh environments. A robot cable is used as standard between the head and the amplifier, ensuring the unit can be used reliably around moving parts
Compact sensor for easy installation
10μm precise measurements
Highly accurate measurements are performed for all applications.
Visualization to avoid stopping the production line; Laser life display function
The end of laser diode life is automatically detected and indicated, so maintenance can be carried out systematically. It gives a warning on the main digital display of the amplifier and the LED on the back of the head. Accordingly, if the amplifier is on the control panel, its lifetime can be confirmed by the head, so that it is not overlooked.
User-friendly unit No manual needed
11 Segment LED Display
An 11 segment LED display is integrated into the compact body. Alphanumeric characters can be read easily and there is no need to refer to the manual

Easily perform calculations with two heads
Thickness + removal mode
The calculated results of the two sensor heads are displayed on the amplifier unit by connecting the calculation unit between the two amplifier units. The calculation function can be selected from two thickness and subtraction modes. It is also possible to prevent mutual interference by coupling via computing units. (Up to five amplifier units can be connected.)
