T
he LSV 1000/2000 velocimeters from ZUMBACH support
manufacturers when monitoring quality in steel, cable, wire
and tubing production. They exceed the performance of con-
ventional contact-based measuring methods, at the same time
offering maximum robustness with minimized maintenance
requirements and costs.
The compact device provides length and velocity data quickly
and reliably for both process control and cut-to-length appli-
cations. Precise detection of very small movements is possible
because the measuring accuracy is not dependent on the
speed. The LSV 1000/2000 makes it possible to:
• Rapidly adjust the desired measuring field: The device is a
compact all-in-one system and can be easily integrated into
production processes. The visible lasers simplify alignment in
the measuring field.
• Measure immediately – with mobile or remote monitoring:
Recalibration is superfluous. Its low weight of just 4.3 kg and
the supplied mobility kit allow rapid mobile deployment as well
as the connection to a laptop. The sensors are immediately
ready for use and feature a universal power supply and a LAN
connection.
• Optimize production processes – irrespective of the surfaces,
materials and temperatures: The LSV length and speed sen-
sors can be used in a huge array of environments. They are ro-
bust enough to supply reliable results even in adverse conditi-
ons: the LSV 1000/2000 measure reliably on virtually any sur-
face, e.g. steel, shiny aluminium, oily sheets, wire and cable.
Certified for protection classes IP 66 and IP 67 (in acc. with EN
60529), the robust sensor technology ensures reliable opera-
tion even under harsh conditions.
• Communicate effectively: The rapid, state-of-the-art signal
processor is equipped with a powerful command system for
efficient system communication via serial or Ethernet interface.

Precise knowledge of length and current speed is
a key cost and process optimization factor in the
production of sheet goods and cables. Wear and
slip push material costs up, but companies today
can no longer afford to produce rejects. Quality is
in demand – From the outset.
