World’s first portable stroboscope
The hand-held stroboscope, which is exceptionally bright thanks to its 118 high-power LEDs, has an outstanding technical highlight, for which RHEINTACHO has applied for a patent. This is the auto-sync laser function. By means of a far-reaching transmission/reception system based on lasers, the flash rate of the stroboscope is synchronised automatically. The system operates to a distance of up to 3 metres, depending on ambient conditions.
A laser beam sent from the stroboscope is reflected by a reflective tape back to the recipient cell on the front side of the stroboscope. As a result, the control of the stroboscope calculates the rotation rate of the object, feeds in the flash frequency of the stroboscope and outputs it again as a precisely measured value. Through this integrated optical tachometer/stroboscope, this value is absolutely precise and reliable in terms of process. Fluctuating rotational speeds are not a problem. Through the instantaneous control of the flash rate, the user always has the benefit of redundant detection.
This innovative and patent-pending function is a real highlight at both trade fairs as well as demonstrations: once a speed disc moving at high speed is instantaneously “frozen” with the auto-sync laser function, the presenter is sure to receive a great deal of attention. No tedious, manual adjustment, no installation of any trigger sensors required, and the measured value is instantly displayed. The uniqueness of the auto-sync laser function is based on the integration of the laser unit in the stroboscope.
For applications in which the reflex tape cannot be attached directly to the object under observation, an observation function (auto-save) has also been added. Thereby, similar to the focus lock on a photo camera, the speed at a position of the system which rotates with a similar to equal speed can be taken down, and this frequency can then be used for further observation on the position of the system which is actually to be tested.
