Precise distance measurement for demanding industrial applications

Confocal chromatic sensors measure distances and surface profiles with high precision. They are based on the principle of chromatic aberration, in which white light is broken down into its spectral components. This makes it possible to precisely determine changes in distance and thickness deviations of glass or foils.

The confocalDT IFS2407-6 high-performance confocal sensor with a measuring range of 6 mm and outstanding linearity of < ± 1 µm is predestined for industrial applications. Thanks to the large numerical aperture of 0.45, the sensor offers high light intensity and enables precise measurements even on dark or weakly reflective surfaces. The large measuring angle of ± 23 ° also provides reliable results on structured surfaces.

The sensor can be used at temperatures from +5 to +70 °C and can withstand shock and vibration. It is used in high-precision areas such as the semiconductor industry, but also in industrial applications such as the thickness measurement of battery foils. The robust aluminum housing protects the sensor in demanding operating conditions.
