Displacement Gone High-Tech

The LK-G5000 Laser Displacement Sensor from KEYENCE (Woodcliff Lake, NJ) now features a RS-CMOS sensor and provides a 392 kHz sampling rate that is eight times faster than previous models, with a 0.01ยตm repeatability. The sensor is now more compact than previous models, making it easy to mount in tight production environments.

The LK-G5000 Laser Displacement Sensor from KEYENCE (Woodcliff Lake, NJ) now features a RS-CMOS sensor and provides a 392 kHz sampling rate that is eight times faster than previous models, with a 0.01ยตm repeatability. The sensor is now more compact than previous models, making it easy to mount in tight production environments. Additional features include:

  • The ability to capture displacement of moving of rotating targets with high linearity.
  • The ABLE (Active Balanced Laser Control Engine) control, which intelligently optimizes sensor performance by balancing laser emission time, laser power, and gain.
  • A dual-port data transfer and quad speed lock, which enable pixel data to be transferred eight times faster than conventional models.
