New distance measuring device has improved features

The AMS 200 is the very latest in distance measurement devices to be announced by Leuze Mayser and through the use of laser technology a hitherto unattainable

accuracy of ±3 millimetres is achieved over the full measuring distance of 200

metres.

Optical distance measurement based on the light propagation principle using red light laser is a tried-and-tested method for permanent position sensing of moving plant and machine parts such as rack handling systems, portal crane

gantries, travelling trolleys or transfer bridges. Introduction of the new AMS 200 (Absolute Measuring System 200) sets new higher standards as regards

positioning control, data transparency, handling and design, bringing improved

repeatability and accuracy over longer distances.

The technology that makes the AMS 200 such a precision piece of engineering is contained in a modern housing design that contributes to easier installation, whether new or retrofit. Much is attributed to the front-mounted display panel which shows actual

measuring values, set parameters or warning messages. And directly alongside the display are four menu selection buttons for greater convenience during initial set-up procedures including precise alignment.

Connectivity is also directly up-front with the AMS 200, the M12 sockets clearly visible for easy access, and only to be expected from a leading edge distance measurement device is supports for various bus interfaces.

Leuze Mayser distance measurement devices have been helping control the precise

position of cranes and machinery for many years. The AMS 200 joins a fully proven range but has the edge when it comes to a need for greater precision over longer distances.
