Teledyne DALSA launches the Z-Trak™ Express 1K5 series of 3D laser profilers. Designed for economical, in-line 3D measurement and inspection, the Z-Trak Express 1K5 represents the newest advancement in the Z-Trak series. It provides rapid 3D inspection with instantaneous processing, reaching a peak profile rate of 5,000 profiles per second throughout its entire measurement range. This renders it perfect for numerous sectors, such as secondary battery manufacturing, automotive, lumber evaluation, factory automation, and logistics.
Featuring a 1,700mm horizontal field-of-view, the Z-Trak Express 1K5 enables precise measurement and inspection of wide-body objects such as wooden planks, road surfaces, pallets, and automotive body parts, using a single sensor.
It also supports the integration of multiple sensors in a variety of topologies, enabling advanced measurement and inspection tasks such as measuring the thickness of moving parts, performing continuous 360° inspections, and extending the horizontal field-of-view, all without compromising Z-resolution. To simplify deployment and reduce costs, the Z-Trak Express 1K5 synchronizes multiple sensors using a data cable and supports content-based triggering for enhanced flexibility.
All Z-Trak profilers are deployment-ready, delivering micrometer level measurements without the need for in-field calibration. To accommodate objects of varying sizes, shapes, colors, finishes, and material compositions, Z-Trak Express 1K5 includes real-time, user programmable profile enhancement functions, two-point HDR, and models with eye-safe red or blue lasers. Like all Z-Trak laser profilers, Z-Trak Express 1K5 performs on-board processing without compromising the profile rate.
The Z-Trak Express 1K5 series comes bundled with:
- Z-Trak 3D Apps Studio – a license for a powerful suite of software tools for in-line measurement and inspection
- Z-Expert – a graphical configuration utility
- Sherlock™8 – a field proven rapid deployment platform for machine vision, enabling seamless communication with PLCs and other devices via industry standard communication protocols such as TCP/IP, MODBUS®, ProfiNet® and more.
