The IDS3010 from Wittenstein is a non-contact, interferometric measuring sensor for mechanical engineering. With a measuring bandwidth of 10 MHz, it can track objects in up to three axes simultaneously at a speed of 2 m/s. At working distances of up to 5 m, the sensor achieves a position resolution of 10 to 12 m. Combined with the measurement deviation of 0.0 ppm to 3 m officially confirmed by the Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt (PTB), according to the manufacturer, this enables measurement accuracies that were previously unachievable in an industrial environment. The sensor can be used for calibrating tool and coordinate measuring machines, for measuring the vibration of production systems, for high-precision in-line process controls and adjustment technology, for measuring the concentricity of engine shafts, crankshafts and camshafts and for ultra-precise pick-and-place robotics applications. As the measuring heads are non-invasive, the sensor also works under extreme conditions such as ultra-high vacuum, very high/low temperatures and radioactive radiation.
