Displacement sensors in the new ZX1 and ZX2 series from Omron combine simple one-button set-up and compact construction with high accuracy and stable operation irrespective of the target colour or surface type. They therefore provide a convenient and cost-effective solution in applications as diverse as measuring the distortion of tyre housings and checking that the correct numbers of washers have been fitted to a spindle.
The exceptional versatility of the new sensors is guaranteed by their wide sensing range, 20 to 1000 mm depending on the model, and the ability to deliver stable results even with ‘difficult’ targets such as dark coloured rubber composites and those with reflective surfaces. In addition, the fast response time, typically 60 μs or better, makes ZX1 and ZX2 series sensors ideally suited for use in high-speed production machines.
Despite their outstanding versatility and performance, the new sensors are easy to set up. Installation is also straightforward thanks to the compact construction of the sensors – the ZX2 sensing heads are hardly larger than a matchbox – and, since they have an IP67 ingress protection rating, they can be relied upon to operate reliably even when installed in harsh environments.
