InteliSENS® SLM-i4

SPEED & LENGTH MEASUREMENT

Proton Products InteliSENS® SLM-i4 Series non-contact, unidirectional speed and length gauges provide extremely accurate speed and length measurements for metals industry applications. They are available with extended stand-off distances and greater depth-of-field than the standard InteliSENS® SL Series gauges, which allows them to be used to measure very high-temperature objects such as in hot-rolling processes.

Applications requiring a precise cut-to-length process benefit from the non-slip and highly accurate laser measurement technique which reduces scrap increases uptime, and improves material yield by eliminating product “Give Away” or “Short Length” claims.

Focused on connectivity the SLM-i4 Smart Sensor with 32bit communications comes preloaded with Profibus, Profinet, and Ethernet Industrial Protocol for your PLC connection. Modbus, OPC-UA, RS232, RS485, and WiFi round out a wide range of digital communications for your Industry 4.0 Solution.

  • No-Slip, No Wear, No Marking
  • Unidirectional speed and length measurement.
  • UKAS-traceable calibration; accuracy better than 0.05% and repeatability better than 0.02%.
  • Rugged industrial design for use in harsh factory environments.
  • Available fitted with industry-standard communications interfaces for easy integration with PLCs and production line equipment.
  • Excellent value with low cost of ownership.
  • Harsh environment enclosures are available from Proton Products on request.
