GEOspot
The GEOspot is a newly developed geometry system based on the latest high-speed point lasers that scan a surface line in 1 revolution. Vertical movement of the side wall sensors is no longer necessary, which reduces the number of moving parts. A lean and flexible solution.
The GEOspot point laser system of laser class 3B can be used with 1-3 sensors and enables distance measurements with an accuracy of measurement accuracy <0.05 mm. The sensors are arranged independently of each other. For flexible integration into a testing machine, the system can be mounted directly into the machine or free-standing on a stand. The ideal solution also as a retrofit system for existing machines.

Advantages of GEOspot at a glance
- Positioning and measurement do not affect the cycle time of the machine
- Time saved when setting up new articles by eliminating the need for teaching
- Measurement during acceleration time possible
- Recipes can be transferred from one machine to the next without adjustment
- A safe distance between the sensors and the tire avoids the risk of collision
- Innovative electrical cylinders for the radial-/vertical movement
- Easy to retrofit because the sensors are arranged independently of each other
- System integration via all common field bus systems
- Fully digital system
