Frequently Asked Questions
Both variants share the proven ZM18 form factor but are optimized for different tasks. ZM18-Positioning is designed for high-precision positioning tasks, while ZM18-Vision is specifically developed for image processing, inspection, and alignment in machine vision systems, offering a significantly broader wavelength range.
Yes, as long as the successor is form-factor compatible. The ZM18-Positioning has the exact same housing as its predecessor, allowing it to be integrated into existing systems without any mechanical redesign.
Industrial lasers should be rated at least IP67 and shock-resistant to operate reliably under harsh production conditions. The ZM18-Positioning meets these requirements and is built for continuous use in demanding environments.
Modern laser modules typically use an integrated focusing optic for this. In the ZM18-Positioning, the easy-to-use focusing optics allow for quick, precise on-site adjustment to different working distances.
