Types of Laser Triangulation Sensors

Short-Range Models

Covering measurement ranges of approximately 30 to 100 mm, these sensors are suited to close-proximity inspection and precision positioning tasks where a compact measurement window is required.

Mid-Range Models

With measurement ranges of approximately 100 to 300 mm, mid-range sensors offer a balance of precision and working distance for general quality control and displacement monitoring applications.

Longer-Range Models

Available with ranges up to 400 to 500 mm depending on the series, these sensors are suited to applications requiring accurate measurement across a greater standoff distance.

2D Laser Displacement Sensors - LS Series

The Optex FASTUS LS series uses a line beam rather than a point laser to deliver high-speed, high-precision simultaneous measurement of height and width.

Why Choose Optex Laser Triangulation Sensors?

Optex laser triangulation sensors are trusted by engineers and automation specialists worldwide for their high precision, stable performance, and ease of integration. Unlike basic photoelectric sensors that detect only the presence or absence of a target, these sensors provide precise analogue distance measurement, making them suitable for exacting quality control, positioning, and inspection tasks.

Laser Triangulation Applications

Optex laser triangulation sensors are used wherever accurate, non-contact distance or displacement measurement is required in industrial and production environments.

Quality control and inspection

Measuring component dimensions, surface profile, and part geometry on production lines to ensure consistent quality and identify out-of-tolerance parts.

Positioning and alignment

Providing precise distance feedback for automated positioning systems, robot guidance, and machine tool alignment in manufacturing environments.

Thickness and height monitoring

Monitoring material thickness, stack height, or product dimensions in real time during continuous production processes.

Electronics and semiconductor manufacturing

Detecting fine surface features, component placement accuracy, and minute dimensional variations on small or delicate parts where a small laser spot size is essential.
