The HDLC-CMOS sensors have been developed specially for the HL-C2 series. High density light-receiving cells and a processing speed close to the maximum limit result in high resolutions and high speeds which exceed all expectations for laser displacement sensors. |
We have created the ideal laser using our proprietary optical technologies and aperture construction. Furthermore, emission adjustment algorithms have been redesigned to maintain ideal emission conditions.

Using our specialized proprietary IC and custom algorithms for high-speed processing, information is digitally transmitted between the sensor head and controller. Both high-speed transmission and stability are realized for measurement values. |
We designed a new high-resolution lens to reduce lens aberration as much as possible. Light entering from any angle can be gathered at a minimum point to realize even higher precision.
Select the optimal digital processing for the object to be measured.
Our lineup includes long-range sensor heads with measurement center distances of 110 mm 4.331 in and 350 mm 13.780 in. By keeping distance from the workpiece, the risk of sensor damage from contact with the workpiece can be reduced. |
We offer linear beam spot type sensor heads with various measurement center distances that are not easily distorted by roughly-finished metal surfaces.
Even surfaces that appear to be flat have minor surface variations when viewed under magnification. These variations can cause errors in measurement. Linear beam spot type sensors average out the influence of these variations, allowing for stable measurement of roughly-finished workpieces. |
A specular reflection installation is required for measurement of transparent and mirrored-surface objects. Select the digital processing for the measurement application.
Glass surfaces can be accurately measured by combining the “Emission Adjustment” that determines the optimal emission amounts with the “Emission Adjustment Area Specification” that identifies the specific area to measure the emission.
The controller is equipped to perform basic calculations and output results for applications such as thickness measurement for sandwiched layers and 2-point gap measurement. This can reduce computational burdens for host controllers (such as PLCs).
Our controller lineup offers Ethernet, USB, and RS-232C connections. The controllers can connect to devices such as PCs and PLCs.

Both Output (1) and Output (2) mounted on the controller provide independent analog outputs, various output signals (judgment, alarm, etc.), and various input signals (laser emission stop, zero set, etc.).
The buffering function allows measurement values acquired from high-speed sampling (10μs) to temporarily accumulate in the controller, which are then transmitted to the host.
A maximum of 65,000 values can be accumulated.
The accumulation of shape data can contribute to traceability and other activities.
Furthermore, in trigger mode, by sending a trigger input when there is an error, measured values before and after the error can be acquired to help determine the cause of the error.
The HL-C21C(-P) supports the MEWTOCOL protocol (used by our programmable controllers), the MC protocol (used by Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC-Q and MELSEC-L series) as well as the iQSS dedicated protocol (used by Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC-L series), allowing measured values and other information to be written automatically to the data registers of programmable controllers without any need for programming.

By combining the GT12 programmable display with our software tools accessed from a PC (HL-C2AiM Intelligent Monitor), received light intensity waveforms and other information can be displayed in addition to the display of measured-value data.
By installing screen application (provided free of charge) onto the GT12 programmable display, it can be used as a dedicated console for viewing waveforms and setting operation conditions. (A proprietary connection cable is required.)

The Control Configurator WD IP address search tool is a software utility that can search for Panasonic Industrial Devices SUNX products on the same network and display a list of their IP addresses, versions, and other information. Other capabilities include changing IP addresses, updating some models’ firmware, and configuring communications, among other things.
