Production Monitoring of Parquet Tongues and Grooves via Laser Distance Sensor Triangulation with Analog Output

When manufacturing parquet flooring with tongues, it is important to ensure that the tongue is securely inserted into the groove in the parquet once pressed in. This is precisely monitored via laser distance sensors triangulation. Ideal for the wood industry: The sensors also work reliably in the event of flying chips and soiling. Since different parquet heights are produced on a single system, the respective distance to the background is detected via an analog output on the sensor. The sensors measure all relevant heights with their analog output: the distance to the conveyor belt, to the spring and to parquet.
