Omron LASER ZX BROCHURE

ZX LASER SENSORS

for precise measurement

Unique Plug & Play Concept

Advanced Industrial Automation

The ZX laser sensor series from Omron, the world’s leading

sensor manufacturer, sets new standards in precise

measurement sensing. Based on a unique Plug & Play concept, the ZX enables a variety of

interchangeable sensor heads to be connected to the same amplifier. This concept not only

covers all of your measurement requirements, it also takes the costly and time-consuming

‘trial-and-error’ process out of selecting the best sensor heads for the job!

Unique measurement

sensing concept from Omron

The ZX is the world’s smallest and lightest laser measurement

sensor, which really expands the design possibilities for production

systems. Its body size is similar to that of a photoelectric sensor,

making it a very attractive solution where space around the location

and installation is at a premium. The ZX also features a host of

remarkable features and functions, including auto calibration, Auto

Thickness Calculation, flexible mounting direction, and flexible

quality control, which enables it to detect and log data for more

efficient and effective quality control.

Read on, and see why Omron’s ZX is ideal for all your

measurement sensing needs.

Very precise

The ZX sensor offers the same kind of high-speed response
as that of photoelectric sensors. With a resolution of0.2
micrometres it is also very precise, and can immediately
spot errors or discrepancies that could costtime and money
in production processes. There are four detecting distances
for reflection types, ranging between 30 ± 2 mm, 40 ± 10 mm,
100 ± 40 mm and 300 ± 200 mm.

With the through-beam type the ZX sensor offers three
different measurement widths from 1-to 2.5 mm, 5 mm,
and 10 mm with a resolution of 4 micrometres.
In differential calculation mode the ZX sensor can catch
minute changes in signals, and the threshold level can be
set to catch upward or downward signal changes.

What’s really innovative about the ZX sensors is that the same amplifier unit
can be attached to any one of the six diffuse reflection laser displacement
heads, two mirror reflection-type laser displacement heads or three
through-beam types laser displacement heads in the range. You simply
select the sensor head that best suits your measurement application.
