Ruler 3D Machine Vision

Brand: Sick AG

Ruler E is a perfect tool for in-line 3D-scanning applications. It is designed for the tough environments common to the timber and mining industries and will provide accurate 3D measurements at temperatures as low as -30° C. Plus, the Gigabit Ethernet interface makes it suitable for remote operation over long cable distances. 

With its built-in light source and factory-calibrated 3D data, the camera instantly provides precise measured values to within a millimeter, making integration considerably easier. In addition to high-speed 3D measurements, the Ruler E camera also provides grayscale intensity and laser scatter measurements. These measurements reveal more about objects and, in turn, enable more precise and reliable decisions. 

With a choice of analysis tools, PC performance, and combining data from several Rulers, you can adapt the solution cost and performance to your specific requirements.
