LMI's displacement sensor uses laser triangulation
The Gocator 1 series 3-D displacement sensors use the familiar Gocator web-based user interface for setup, measurement, and control functions. Laser triangulation performs high-speed measurements at rates of 10 to 32 kHz, suitable for noncontact displacement feedback, differential thickness measurement, and automated, closed-loop machine processes.

NEW PRODUCT PRESS RELEASE
LMI Adds New Displacement Sensor Series To The Innovative Gocator Product Line
LMI Technologies announces the addition of a new series of displacement sensors to their innovative Gocator all-in-one 3D sensor product line called the Gocator 1 series. This new series offers the same industry leading web-based user interface for setup, measurement, and control, for which the Gocator 2 series of laser line profilers are known. Gocator 1 series sensors use laser triangulation to perform high speed distance measurement at scan rates of 10-32kHz and are ideal for closed loop control in automation processes requiring non-contact displacement feedback or a differential thickness measurement. The new Gocator 1 series joins the Gocator 2 series of laser line profilers to deliver a broader variety of 3D measurement solutions for your application’s needs. To learn more about how Gocators are transforming in-line process control by making 3D measurement and control easy, visit us at www.lmi3D.com/product/gocator1 .
Product Highlights:
- New family of laser displacement sensors called Gocator 1 series
