Exhibits
The product range covers multipurpose sensors for presence, absence, and difference detection; non-contact high-precision laser displacement and position measurement; machine-vision inspection and part identification; flow and pressure monitoring and recording; safety sensing; industrial and life-science microscopy; automated optical image-dimension measurement; offline 3D measurement; and PLC, motor, HMI, counter, and programmable-logic machine control. The microscopy and surface-measurement lineup includes the VHX-X1 digital microscope, which combines a 4K CMOS sensor and 4K-compatible lenses with optical shadow-effect imaging, anomaly identification, a 300 mm large stage with nine times the analysis area, and a high-resolution turret lens that supports metallurgical microscopy. The EA-300 elemental-analysis module extends the VHX series to elemental analysis without destroying the target, vapor deposition, or vacuum processing, and includes AI-based recommendations to support material identification after analysis. The VK-X4000 shape-analysis laser confocal and white-light interferometry microscope integrates laser confocal, white-light interferometry, and Focus Variation in a three-scan approach for high-precision measurement and analysis across varied targets, including mirror and transparent materials. VK-X4000 multi-point measurement can automate measurements across multiple targets and locations without complex setup, while the three measurement principles can be selected according to material, shape, and measurement range. KEYENCE laser microscopes are designed for one-button, fully automatic measurement from optical-microscope observation through areas associated with SEM observation, combining observation, rapid shape scanning, measurement, and analysis tools in one system. Laser profile sensors and 3D vision systems use laser-light-section measurement and CMOS reception to acquire non-contact height, step, width, flatness, and cross-sectional data, then process continuous profiles into 3D shapes for high-precision measurement and full inspection. The LJ-S8000 automatic-scanning 3D sensor integrates the laser source and scanning mechanism, eliminating the need for separate illumination, a driven stage, or an encoder; it supports image capture as fast as 0.2 seconds, repeatability of 0.3 µm, and guided setup for online inspection of dimensions, appearance, and shape. The LJ-X8000 ultra-high-definition inline profile sensor provides up to 3200 data points per profile and sampling up to 16 kHz, automatically correcting displacement and vibration during transport so 100% inspection can proceed without stopping the line for alignment. LJ Developer software supports secondary development of 3D image processing with libraries for communication, measurement, 3D rendering, position correction, dimensional and appearance inspection, interference removal, image composition, and automatic source-code generation that can be embedded into user applications. Dedicated tools in the 3D image-processing environment cover dimensional measurement, scratch and defect inspection using height data, and sealant or adhesive-coating inspection on complex shapes without requiring users to construct complex region-setting algorithms. The LJ-V7000 series uses high-speed 2D laser scanning, a blue laser, and dedicated CMOS sensing to inspect glass, metal, dark rubber, and other surfaces at up to 64 kHz, and it can work with LJ-X8000 controllers for 3D measurement and inspection. The LJ-G5000 series performs basic 2D height, step, and width measurement, compares results with dimensional tolerances to detect defective parts or processes in real time, and can execute up to eight measurements simultaneously. The WI-5000 3D interferometric displacement sensor captures a three-dimensional image up to 10 × 10 mm in 0.13 seconds and records 80,000 height points for height, coplanarity, and surface-roughness measurements including Sa and Sz; white-light interferometry supports repeatable measurement on transparent and mirror-like surfaces. Laser profile measurement is applied to automotive coating and weld-bead inspection, electric-vehicle battery coating and prismatic-cell electrode or weld profiles, electronic-component inspection such as PCB warpage and solder-paste profiles, and semiconductor wafer notch position and edge-shape inspection even when surface gloss or color varies. For sheet and film inspection, an LJ-X8000 series head can measure widths up to 720 mm, while one or multiple heads can inspect the full width and length of wide materials during roll-to-roll operation without stopping the machine. The dedicated LJ-X8000A model can output raw profile data directly to a computer for integration with existing systems and machine-vision libraries, and it is supplied with HALCON-compatible sample software supporting multiple machine-vision libraries. Image-dimension measurement systems automate optical dimensional inspection with simple placement and button operation, using autofocus to reduce operator-dependent variation and complete multiple measurements within seconds. The IM-X1000 series adds automatic setup that optimizes autofocus and illumination, drawing-reading functions that extract measurement positions and tolerances from CAD, PDF, or paper drawings, and a 500 mm × 400 mm stage with 200 mm of Z space. The IM-8000 series uses a 20-megapixel CMOS sensor and an edge-detection algorithm to measure as many as 300 locations within seconds, and its rotation device keeps varied workpieces level while supporting automated 360° multi-face measurement. The LM-X series combines high-precision image measurement, non-contact height measurement with a color laser, and contact measurement with a three-dimensional probe, with stated measurement precision of ±0.1 µm. Offline 3D metrology includes the XM series handheld-probe coordinate measuring system, which uses a camera-equipped handheld probe and a compact integrated design for intuitive measurement from palm-sized parts to large machined workpieces in manufacturing or office environments. The WM-6000 wide-area coordinate measuring system supports both contact dimensional measurement and laser-scanned shape measurement with a freely operated wireless probe, and it performs high-speed, high-precision scanning without spray or sticker pretreatment. The VR-6000 surface 3D profilometer provides non-contact roughness and profile measurement at 0.1 µm resolution, uses a motorized rotary unit to reveal cross-sections while the sample rotates, and applies HDR scanning to glossy or weakly reflective targets with a dynamic scan range up to 1000 times the previous level. The VL-800 3D scanning coordinate measuring system incorporates 3D-AI, recommends measurement methods according to product shape, compares acquired data with 3D CAD to visualize deformation and warpage, and supports reverse engineering from the acquired 3D data. Laser-marking and engraving products cut, etch, or engrave barcodes, date codes, serial numbers, and logos on varied surfaces; the MD-U series uses a 355 nm UV laser for fine high-visibility processing with reduced heat effect and adds distance sensing, camera-based position correction, laser-output monitoring, and window-contamination detection. The laser-marker lineup also includes the MD-X hybrid system for resin and metal, the high-power three-axis MD-F fiber system for metal, the three-axis ML-Z CO2 system for paper and resin, and the telecentric-lens MD-T system for ultra-fine processing of resin and metal. Additional products include the ER long-distance proximity sensor; VS-G vision system with AI and image storage for high-speed, high-load inspection; SK inline static sensor with ±1.0 V measurement accuracy and 1.4 ms sampling; FT digital infrared temperature sensor with sensing distances up to 3000 mm; IV4 AI vision sensor; GL-V safety light curtain; VS robot vision; and SJ-Q static eliminator with ±3 V ion balance and 0.1-second static-elimination speed.
