VDM 100 – Positioning Tasks Accurate to the Millimeter

The VDM100 distance measurement sensors are well-suited for larger distances up to 300 m. The repeat accuracy of all the devices in the range is 0.5 mm, with a resolution of 0.1 mm. SSI and fieldbusses are used as measured value interfaces.

The sensors are used to position stock feeders to within a millimeter.
