The sensors in the LaserCheck product range are especially designed for sheet metal applications. Due to their robust construction and user friendly technical features, they achieve precise measurement results even in harsh ambient conditions.
By carefully miniaturising every component, we have created small and robust sensors, that fit on any press brake.
Laser-based Bending Angle Measurement System
The iMeasure Laser angle measurement system with Data-M Engineering for An accurate bend angle after only one bending operation.
The iMeasure are fully-automatic laser-assisted bend angle measurement systems for CNC press brakes. Irrespective of the properties or thickness of the material, the LaserCheck enables an exact determination of the bending angle with an accuracy of better than 0.1°. This represents precision which has never been available before.
The bending angle is measured by scanning the projection of the laser beam to the surface of the sheet metal with the CMOS camera. The angle between the laser and the viewing axis of the camera enables a distance measurement. The angle between sensor and sheet metal is calculated from these distances. With a second sensor at the opposite site the bending angle is calculated.

With a second sensor at the opposite site the bending angle is calculated.
The LaserCheck sensor is mounted on the press brake, below the die, with an angle of 35° – 55° to the vertical. The working distance (between sensor and sheet) is 80-300mm, depending on the sensor type. It is moveable along the
die either manually or automatically. Due to its mounting position the measuring range is 30° to 180° bending angle. For each measuring position there are 2 sensors needed. Four sensors enable an independent correction of the beam to compensate angle differences in long bend
The sensor accuracy is better than ±0.1°. The bending accuracy is influenced by the control, the machine accuracy, the tools and the material. To increase the bending accuracy the sensors will be calibrated after mounting, so the mounting errors are reduced.
After mounting, the sensors shall be calibrated in the machine with our calibration unit LC-Adjust. This allows highest accuracy with errors less than ±0.1° in the full measuring range.
