Acoustic quality control with laser precision
The IVS-500 Industrial Vibration Sensor is the key to fast acoustic quality inspection, structure-borne noise analysis and reliable pass-fail decisions. This laser vibration sensor measures reliably, in demanding industrial environments, without contact and therefore without wear and on virtually all surfaces. Optimize costs and yields by reducing false rejects in the production and assembly process.
New signal outputs available: Choose between displacement signal, acceleration and velocity signal and directly process either analog or optionally digital measurement data.
Highlights
- Clear and repeatable pass/fail decisions for production testing
- Reliable, non-contact quality inspection with laser precision
- Flexible working distances up to 3 m with auto focus
- Versatile covering any application up to 100 kHz
- Robust and wear-free sensor technology
Easy in-line/ at-line integration and setup
- Vibration output as velocity, displacement and acceleration data
- Signal output analog and optionally digital
