Chromatic white light sensor (CWS)
The chromatic white light sensor (CWS) is a highly efficient scanning sensor. It is based on the confocal measurement principle and works using chromatic depth scanning. This technique uses a special lens that refracts white light differentially depending on its wavelength in order to carry out distance measurements. The system resolution therefore depends on the intensity of the light reflected from the surface of the inspected part.
