SERVOLASER

Laser systems projecting parallel movable lines

Description of function and use of lasers travelling on a rail in a closed housing

Stationery line lasers have limits: even with sophisticated brackets their range of movement is restricted.

You need to change the position of the laser lines regularly, maybe with each batch of products?
Maybe even with each single product?
You control the production process by a PLC or (I)PC?

We have a solution for you: LAP SERVOLASER Xpert.

One- or two-line laser modules travel on a rail. You can select the laser color, the movement range and you may add a fixed center laser. The laser modules may move symmetrically in relation to the center laser or completely free and independent. With each production step, the two movable laser lines can be placed at different coordinates. Locations are changed with a speed of up to 1 m/s. The projection accuracy lies between ±0.18 mm and ±0.5 mm, depending on distance.

Let your PLC move the laser lines where you need them

Your benefits

Increase speed

The laser lines automatically move to the right position for the next work step.

Reduce waste

Increase quality

High precision laser projection will guide you through the production process

SEQUENCE Xpert

Software for SERVOLASER Xpert position control without PLC

System requirements

  • Computer running a Microsoft Windows operating system
    [Windows 7 (32/64 bit) or Windows 10 (32/64 bit)]

  • .NET Framework 4.6 or later

  • Monitor resolution: at least
    1024 x 900 pixels

The LAP SERVOLASER Xpert is designed to operate with a PLC (programmable logic controller). Still, many applications don't have a PLC. To address this situation, LAP developed SEQUENCE Xpert. This software runs on a PC and offers control of the moveable laser modules. 

SEQUENCE Xpert allows to enter single coordinates for the moveable lasers, store a sequence of positions and move the laser lines accordingly. Sequence steps may be triggered by click or by a time schedule. Additionally, you may adjust the brightness of the lasers and the travelling speed of the moveable modules.  The software also visualizes the current status of the connected SERVOLASER Xpert.

The SEQUENCE Xpert software is free of charge and can be ordered with any SERVOLASER Xpert. A detailed user manual is provided.
