HL-C2CE

Controllers that provide both convenience & improved product quality. On-board processing for calculations of 2 sensor heads, The controller is equipped to perform basic calculations and output results for applications such as thickness measurement for sandwiched layers and 2-point gap measurement. This can reduce computational burdens for host controllers (such as PLCs). The controllers can connect to devices such as PCs and PLCs. Both Output (1) and Output (2) mounted on the controller provide independent analog outputs, various output signals (judgment, alarm, etc.), and various input signals (laser emission stop, zero sets, etc.).

The buffering function allows measurement values acquired from high-speed sampling (10μs) to temporarily accumulate in the controller, which is then transmitted to the host. A maximum of 65,000 values can be accumulated. The accumulation of shape data can contribute to traceability and other activities. Furthermore, in trigger mode, by sending a trigger input when there is an error, measured values before and after the error can be acquired to help determine the cause of the error.

Measurement status can be acquired with a programmable controller easily and without any need for programming, The HL-C21C(-P) supports the MEWTOCOL protocol (used by our programmable controllers), the MC protocol (used by Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC-Q and MELSEC-L series) as well as the iQSS dedicated protocol (used by Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSEC-L series), allowing measured values and other information to be written automatically to the data registers of programmable controllers without any need for programming.
