The Applications
1. Precision Alignment in Robotic Pick-and-Place Systems
In compact robotic assembly cells, precise component placement is essential to prevent misalignment or mechanical interference. The SICK OD1-B100H50U25 ensures exact position control by delivering consistent, micrometer-level feedback in real time. Its fast 2 ms response and high repeatability allow robots to make immediate adjustments during motion. The result is improved accuracy, higher throughput, and reduced rejection rates in automated handling lines for electronics or micro-mechanical parts.
2. Thickness and Gap Verification in Automotive Production
During automotive part assembly, maintaining uniform gap and thickness between components ensures both safety and visual quality. The OD1-B100H50U25 measures these dimensions with exceptional linearity, detecting even small deviations on varied metallic or coated surfaces. Its stable readings—supported by the averaging and teach-in functions—enable manufacturers to maintain strict tolerances in welding, body fitting, or trim installation, ensuring a consistent finish across every vehicle unit.
3. Height Control in Laser Cutting and Machining Operations
In laser cutting or CNC machining, surface variations can cause poor cuts or tool damage. The OD1-B100H50U25 continuously monitors the distance between the cutting head and the work surface, automatically signaling when deviations occur. With its rapid measurement speed and stable optical feedback, it helps maintain the optimal working gap, improving cut precision and extending tool life. This enhances overall productivity and reduces costly scrap or downtime.
4. Inspection of Transparent and Reflective Films
In industries producing thin films, solar coatings, or packaging layers, accurate thickness measurement is critical yet difficult due to material transparency. The OD1-B100H50U25 solves this with its intelligent laser triangulation system and adaptive sensitivity control. It delivers stable readings even on glossy, translucent, or mirrored surfaces. By ensuring consistent layer thickness and uniformity, it helps manufacturers achieve top-quality film products with minimal waste and rework.
