Description
CHRocodile CLS, the PRECITEC chromatic confocal line sensor offers an incredibly fast 3D measurement of 384,000 points persecond with nanometric scale resolution. Thanks to its robust and highly integrated design, CHRocodile CLS is perfectly suited for easy integration into inspection machines in the production line, including harsh industrial environments. An outstanding dynamic range and an excellent signal to noise ratio make the CHRocodile CLS the best measuring tool for all materials – including polished and highly tilted surfaces. With its unrivaled performance/price ratio, CHRocodile CLS is the best choice for ultrafast 3D inspection.
