RE: Non Contact Speed & Length Measurement
Put a bit more information about your application in your next post and I'm sure you'll get a good response.

RE: Non Contact Speed & Length Measurement
I am trying to measure product that is in a tube form
Speed range 0 - 400 ft/min
Sensing range 100 mm
Accuracy +/- 0.05%
Hopefully you can help
RE: Non Contact Speed & Length Measurement
This is quite fast for a contactless measurement at that accuracy class. I'll post some more questions:
What is the surface finish of the product?
Does the product have any surface markings, or can such markings be added?
Is non-contact vital?
Where does the product finish up? Presumably it eventually is coiled or similar?
I can imagine some parallels with the printing industry, and maybe some transferrable technology, but that is just in my mind's eye. I am probably miles wide of the mark! The more gaps you can fill in about the product and the process, the easier it is for us to visualise your problem.

Wheels within wheels / In a spiral array
A pattern so grand / And complex
Time after time / We lose sight of the way
Our causes can't see / Their effects.
RE: Non Contact Speed & Length Measurement
the 0 ft/min will be difficult to measure with .05% accuracy (+/- 0 ???? )
