The new sensor is not only convincing due to its compact design, but is also able to measure optical radiation in various wavelength ranges with high resolution and low noise.<\/h6>\n<h6><strong>High Inspection Speed<\/strong><\/h6>\n<h6>With the specially developed amplifier electronics and a measuring frequency of up to 250,000 samples per second, monitoring high speed applications such as battery welding in the electromobility sector is no longer a problem. The welding of extremely short seams with very fast cycle times and the highest quality requirements is monitored.<\/h6>\n<h6><strong>Flexible Optical Integration<\/strong><\/h6>\n<h6>There are several ways in which the optical radiation can be guided from the process to the sensor: With &#8220;off-axis&#8221; integration, the process is observed from a lateral perspective. On-axis&#8221;, the process is observed directly via the beam path of the laser, or the sensor is integrated directly into the processing laser. Different integration methods can be combined easily to provide a maximum of process data and control.<\/h6>\n<h6><strong>Scalability<\/strong><\/h6>\n<h6>Multiple sensors can be integrated via Ethernet into a sensor network, making the system very scalable. Sampling rate, sensitivity and a number of other parameters can also be adapted to the respective application.<\/h6>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Automatic Parameter Tuning<\/strong> (APT) is our newest software feature that carries out the parameterization of process<strong>observer<\/strong> measurement data fully automatically with a single click, regardless of the number of seams.<\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\"><a style=\"color: #ff9900;\" href=\"https:\/\/services.plasmo.eu\/en\/free-white-paper-apt\">Request your free white paper <strong>Automatic Parameter Tuning<\/strong><\/a><\/span><\/h6>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.plasmo.eu\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/07\/pso-3D-szene-4pso_mit_graphen.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>In our <strong>Case Studies<\/strong> you will learn how the laser welding process could be optimized and reject costs reduced by using the inline quality assurance solution process<strong>observer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h6><a href=\"https:\/\/services.plasmo.eu\/en\/free-case-study\"><span style=\"color: #ff9900;\">Request your free case study <strong>Process Monitoring of Laser Welding Processes for Precision Components<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/h6>\n<hr \/>\n<h6>MACO &#8211; the specialist for window fittings &#8211; relies on plasmo&#8217;s expertise to inspect the weld seams produced by laser technology.
