Gocator 5500 Series
VANCOUVER — LMI Technologies (LMI), a developer of 3D scanning and inspection solutions, announces the official release of its new Gocator® 5500 series of smart 3D line confocal sensors. This product release introduces the a line confocal sensor reportedly running Gocator®’s smart sensor platform, complete with on-sensor IIoT vision web-based software, onboard measurement tools and I/O connectivity.
Gocator® 5500 sensors are reportedly unique among existing confocal technologies in that they feature a dual-axis design that delivers 3D topography, 3D tomography, and 2D intensity data. This allows Gocator® 5000 sensors to scan a variety of material types.
A quick look at Gocator 5500 sensor capabilities:
- Simultaneous generation of multiple profiles from multi-layer structures.
- Generates 1792 data points per profile.
- Fast scan rates (Over 10 kHz with PC acceleration).
- High X resolution, sub-micron Z precision.
- Handles a wide variety of material types.
- Dual-axis optical design provides higher signal quality.
- Runs next-generation onboard measurement and inspection software.
“The Gocator® 5500 Series introduces a powerful line confocal scanning approach for the inspection of challenging material structures such as multi-layer, transparent and curved edge, and now with next-generation on-sensor IIoT vision software and Gocator’s renowned smart features and capabilities. The result is an end-to-end, user-friendly surface evaluation solution that provides customers with unmatched performance, leveraging the industry’s first smart LCI technology”, said Mark Radford, CEO, LMI Technologies.
