InteliSENS™ BG Series

Features

• Non-contact, laser diameter measurement does not deform or mark measured objects.
• 1 or 2-axis models available in 30 or 60mm maximum diameters.
• Provides statistical analysis of measurements.
• Available fitted with optional rotary chuck or V-groove sample holders.
• Extremely easy to use.
• For off-line, stand-alone use in incoming inspection, quality control and laboratory applications.

Introduction

Derived from the highly successful InteliSENS^TM DG Series of one and two-axis scanning-laser diameter gauges, the InteliSENS^TM BG Series diameter bench gauges are intended for off-line, stand-alone use in incoming inspection, quality control and laboratory applications.

A Proton Products InteliSENS^TM DG Series scanning-laser diameter gauge is integrated together with a miniature touch screen PC and a mains power supply unit on an aluminium baseboard. Depending on the application, optional ground steel V-grooves or a rotary chuck may also be integrated for precise sample holding.

InteliSENS^TM BG Series bench gauges are a fast, easy-to-use and non-contact alternative to vernier callipers and micrometer screw gauges. The touch screen PC provides diameter display with automatic maximum/minimum and ovality calculation, statistical analysis and data logging. Logged data may be extracted from the touch screen PC using a USB flash memory stick.

Operating principle

Proton Products InteliSENS^TM DG Series diameter gauges rapidly scan a laser beam across the object under measurement. The laser beam is focused by a receiving lens onto a photodiode and the electrical signal digitally processed by a Proton-designed FPGA processor. The time duration for which the object obscures the laser beam is directly proportional to the object diameter.
