Z-Trak Express 3D Profilers

The Z-Trak Express 1K5 series provides high-speed and accurate real-time 3D inspection, capturing up to 5,000 profiles per second across the full measurement range. The 1K5 family is used in industries such as lumber, factory automation, automotive, and logistics.

Flexible Performance Options

The Z-Trak Express 1K5 series includes four models with different fields of view:

  • 1K5-0040-B2 (smallest model): Field of view from 8.3 mm to 109 mm, Z-resolution between 8.9 µm and 11.4 µm.
  • Largest model: Field of view from 959 mm to 1,720 mm, Z-resolution between 191.6 µm and 343.9 µm.

This range covers applications from electronics inspection to measurement of larger surfaces such as planks, pallets, and vehicle body panels.

Scalable Configurations

Z-Trak Express 1K5 profilers can be deployed singly or in groups:

  • Measurement of moving part thickness
  • 360 degree continuous inspection
  • Extended horizontal field of view without loss of Z-resolution

Multiple sensors can be synchronised with cables and configuration software. Systems can be aligned to conveyor motion using encoders, or by operating at a fixed line rate with constant motion.

Software Ecosystem

Each Z-Trak Express 1K5 is supplied with a range of software tools:

  • Z-Trak 3D Apps Studio – for inline 3D vision across a variety of materials and surfaces
  • Z-Expert – graphical configuration tool
  • Sherlock 8 – machine vision and image analysis platform, with support for Modbus, Ethernet/IP, Profinet, OPC UA, MQTT, Serial, and discrete I/O
  • Sapera LT SDK – low level scanning and control with support for third-party 3D processing software

Design for Industrial Use

The Z-Trak Express 1K5 is trusted for use in production environments:

  • Factory calibrated, no field calibration required
  • Real-time profile enhancement, including HDR mode for reflective surfaces
  • Eye safe red or blue lasers
  • IP67 housing for protection in industrial settings
