EG24 Precision Edge Sensor Instruction
Manual
Features
Precision edge measurement sensor for web alignment, small part detection, and width measurement.
•
High-resolution measurement ensures material is properly positioned to improve quality and yield
◦
Less than 10-micron resolution precisely monitors edge movement to maximize process
control and reduce wasted material
◦
2 kHz measurement frequency rapidly measures edge location, enabling quick corrections
to material position
•
Wide sensing beam allows for precision measurement over a large area
◦
40-millimeter sensing range measures with the same resolution at any distance, allowing
for edge movement between the sensor face and reflector
◦
24-millimeter wide beam allows for variation in target presentation, which reduces fixturing
complexity and provides more reliable detection than a single-point sensor
•
A selection of measurement modes precisely track edges across a broad variety of moving materials, including a wide range of
opacities and textures
◦
Single Edge for tracking and positioning of web and sheet edges with materials such as foils, films, metals, plastics, or
paper
◦
Width or Gap for confirming quality of a product or in process dimension verification
WARNING:
•
Do not use this device for personnel protection
•
Using this device for personnel protection could result in serious injury or death.
•
This device does not include the self-checking redundant circuitry necessary to allow its use in personnel
safety applications. A device failure or malfunction can cause either an energized (on) or de-energized (off)
output condition.

Overview
The EG24 can accurately track a target within its 24 mm (0.94 in) wide field of view. It is ideal for tracking the edge of a web or the location or
thickness of a thin target like a thread or wire.
The single-edge and double-edge tracking measurement modes can be configured, depending on the application. Connect the RSD can for
additional configuration options, including other measurement modes.
