Non-contact speed & length measurement
10 January 2020
Available from TTS Systems, the new, smart and compact Laser Doppler Non-Contact Speed and Length Sensor is designed to replace cumbersome, inaccurate and high-wear contact wheel encoders that are prone to excessive measurement errors due to slippage, vibration and wear, resulting in product give-away and quality issues.

The SL and SLR mini are designed for industrial applications and material processing lines; compatible with almost all moving materials including web, wire, plate and sheet. Measurement and control of length, speed, differential speed and elongation on paper, plastic film, foil, non-woven, rubber and many more materials.
The non-contact laser technology provides an industry leading accuracy of +/-0.05% without need to ever re-calibrate due to wear. The internal measurement rate is 200kHz with one measurement output every 20 microseconds. Communication is via Ethernet, RS-232, Wifi or bus options.
Full technical support is available from TTS Systems. So, if you have a speed or length measurement application contact us - 01233 624422 or [email protected]
