Banner Laser Gauging Sensors L-GAGE - Manual (Page 2)

Unique,* self-contained design replaces large, cumbersome systems.
Laser gauging sensors are typically large, two-piece systems, and are difficult to
use. The new Banner L-GAGE has changed all that with a completely self-contained,
12 to 30V dc patent-pending design measuring only 55 mm X 82 mm X 20 mm
(2.2" X 3.2" X 0.8"). By eliminating the need for a separate controller, the
one-piece L-GAGE is easier to wire, decreases setup time and conserves valuable
production space, with the added bonus of superior performance.
*Patent pending
Ultra-precise & accurate, with both analog & discrete outputs.
Advanced digital signal processing algorithms make the L-GAGE Class 2 modulated
visible laser gauging sensor a powerhouse of performance for a wide range of
measurement applications. It features an outstanding maximum resolution of
3 µm (0.0001"). It’s ultra-narrow effective beam resolves precision distance, height
or thickness measurement and gauging applications, including robot arm
calibration, wafer profiling, diameter or thickness measurement, and assembly
dimension inspection, to name only a few.

A price point as sharp as its laser emitter.
Now you can upgrade to laser technology for the same cost as
a contacting sensor. L-GAGE sensors are the first in their category
to break the $1,000 price barrier, providing an economical and
highly accurate solution at a much lower cost. Previously
cost-prohibitive applications can now be solved with ease. And
because L-GAGE sensors do not contact the parts they measure,
they can be used with moving processes, hot parts and sticky
parts. They also include measuring features that are unavailable
on contacting probes, giving the L-GAGE sensors a distinct
advantage in performance as well as price.
Infinitely more flexible.
L-GAGE sensors are vastly more flexible and
easier to program than currently-available
gauging sensors. Why buy an inflexible fixed-
range laser sensor when the more-advanced
L-GAGE lets you pick the exact range you need
with the push of a button? And you get both
discrete (switched) and analog outputs in the
same unit, each independently programmable.
It’s a better solution for all your applications. For
additional flexibility, analog units are available
with either 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 10V outputs.
