Optical Sensors

CAPTRON's Optical Sensors are robust, durable and reliable. They detect metallic and non-metallic objects from a size of 0.05 mm with extreme precision. In addition to laser light barriers with varying fork widths, CAPTRON also offers Tool Center Point (TCP) laser measurement devices for the exact measurement and calibration of robots.

The wide range of available designs and sizes are specially adapted to the requirements in automation, robotics and assembly. Our hardware solutions are robot-agnostic and in addition to highly technical recalibration can be used as a simple verification tool to ensure accuracy.

Tool Center Point (TCP) Optical Laser Sensors

CAPTRON's TCP Optical Laser Sensors provide a robust, durable, and reliable solution for ensuring accuracy and efficiency. In this video we demonstrate how to easily calibrate your UR robot with our innovative URCap software and our optical sensors. Follow the entire calibration process step by step and learn how our solution makes your robot applications more precise and efficient.

As a UR+ partner, we have taken the integration of our TCP measurement technology with UR robots to a new level. With our URCap, monitoring and adjusting the Tool Center Point is automatic. Our system is tested and certified by UR to provide you with seamless and precise results.

Fork Light Laser Sensors

As production volumes and speeds continue to rise, the expectation is that mechanical processes will minimize errors. CAPTRON Fork Light Laser Sensors help meet this demand with a precise laser beam transmitted between two arms—one acting as the transmitter and the other as the receiver. These sensors can instantly detect errors, count, account for web tensioning control and more.
