In the field of modern industrial automation control, there are many methods for positioning components. Here is a solution implemented by a prism-less laser rangefinder.

The prismless laser rangefinder has a standard RS232 serial output function, and can continuously collect a data every 0.7 seconds. The instrument transmits the measured slant distance, vertical distance, horizontal distance, tilt angle and other parameters to the computer through the RS232 data port, and the computer judges the position of the target according to the obtained data, so as to control the mechanical parts to change the position of the target and achieve automatic height control. Purpose.


Its structural characteristics allow you to simply aim at the red dot in the eyepiece, aim, and press the launch button, and you can obtain data such as distance and height within 1 second without the need for a prism as a reflective target. Its measurement feature is that it can measure data such as horizontal distance, inclination and height by using multi-function menu operation and built-in inclination sensor (200 type and 200LR type). In terms of use, it is more considerate of customers' needs, providing functions such as left-handed operation, data download, and optional remote control triggering.


In addition, it is even more powerful to use in combination with options such as [MapStar] (MapStar), which can immediately become the most portable X, Y, Z three-dimensional measurement system, and can be used through data output ports, collectors, software and other options To meet the wider measurement needs of customers.


Structural features: Aiming eyepiece-----a red aiming point inside the aiming eyepiece helps you accurately aim at the target. The intensity of the red point is adjustable to adapt to different light environments. The transmitting mirror transmits infrared laser signals through the transmitting mirror. Receiver mirror-------Receiver mirror receives the reflected infrared rays and transmits the signal to the internal circuit of the instrument for calculation. Operation buttons------Three operation buttons can perform dozens of operations through different cooperation to meet different work needs. Loudspeaker-------reports the working condition of the instrument to you through different sounds. LCD screen------Precision backlit LCD screen can meet your day and night operation needs and display the data you want anytime, anywhere. The data output port provides the function of data download, you only need to download the data through the data output port for more detailed processing.


Internal structure: It is mainly composed of a large-scale laser sensor, a fluid tilt sensor, a aiming eyepiece and a data output port. Combine the sensor and software, operate through the three buttons on the two panels of the instrument, and obtain data on the LCD display on the rear panel.


How it works: Provides instant distance and angle values via a laser sensor and tilt sensor. During the measurement, a beam of infrared rays is emitted from the transmitter mirror, and the infrared rays are reflected back to the receiver mirror when they hit the target. The laser sensor calculates the distance value by calculating the elapsed time of the short infrared pulse, and the tilt sensor is responsible for measuring the vertical angle. , Calculate and determine the data such as height, elevation angle, inclination, horizontal distance, etc.


With great spectral sensitivity, it can measure reflective and non-reflective targets. The maximum distance can be 600 meters (2000 feet), but the actual maximum distance is affected by the specific target and the surrounding environment, which is determined by the surrounding environment. The tilt sensor is able to measure 360 degrees, the instrument is displayed by the tilt sensor as ±180 degrees, the instrument is kept horizontal is 0 degrees, the upward rotation is + value, and the downward rotation is - value.
