Baumer has expanded its portfolio of distance measuring sensors with the OADM 260 laser distance sensor. The new time of flight technology sensor measures distances up to 13 meters. With its compact housing it is one of the smallest and at the same time most powerful sensors on the market.
Marshall Wolf Automation, your full-line industrial automation distributor, is an authorized Baumer Electric distributor.
The OADM 260 laser distance sensor is especially suited for path measurements in large-format machines, i.e. in wood, metal, or paper processing, or in hydraulic lifts and raised platforms. The repeat accuracy (+/- 5mm), linearity (+/- 20mm) and short measuring repetition rate 0f 10 ms allow precise measurements even on moving objects.
The compact design of the sensor facilitates its integration into the application. The measuring range of the OADM can be adjusted via a teach-in button or the connector cable. The robust metal housing, the washable glass pane, and protection class IP 67 guarantee a high durability, even in harsh industrial applications.

Pepperl + Fuchs included an interesting application story in their latest newsletter. To learn more about the
Pepperl + Fuchs F99 series of inclination sensors,
click here.
F99 Series inclination sensors are in use on the WT1000 aerial work platform manufactured by Palfinger Platforms GmbH. The WT1000 is the tallest all-terrain aerial work platform in the world, and has been specifically developed for installing and servicing wind turbines.
The platform has an extreme working height of over 100 m and can reach heights that conventional aerial work platforms cannot. The exact position of the work platform arm system must be monitored continuously to guarantee the stability of the aerial work platform, the safety of personnel, and to prevent damage to the wind turbine.
Palfinger relies on the dependable F99 series inclination sensors from Pepperl+Fuchs. The inclination sensors detect the exact position of the arm system on the aerial work platform.
Palfinger Platforms defined two angular measurement ranges between 0 degrees and 360 degrees for detecting the position of the arm system on their aerial work platforms. The F99 inclination sensors were then adapted by Pepperl+Fuchs according to these specific requirements. To reduce the effect of vibrations on the sensor element, the angle measurement was equipped with a special filter.
Pepperl + Fuchs F99 inclination sensors offer the following features:
- Inclination angles between 0 degrees and 360 degrees
- Maintenance and wear-free due to non contact measurement process
- Extremely robust inclination sensors from the F99 series offer guaranteed reliability and an extended service life
- Easy mounting and modest space requirements due to integrated mounting concept

Baumer Electric Sensors has recently introduced a new laser sensor for particularly demanding applications. This new distance measuring laser sensor is their series OADM 13.
Marshall Wolf Automation, your industrial automation distributor, is an authorized Baumer Electric Sensors distributor.
Some features of the OADM 13 series laser sensor are:
- Measures onto extremely light-absorbing as well as shiny surfaces
- Optimized optics reduces measurement errors for color transitions
- Fine laser line facilitates measurement of small objects
- Laser class 1
The three new distance measuring laser sensors of the OADM 13 family with laser class 1 solve particularly demanding, so far unresolved tasks. At the same time, they are easy to handle.
The sensors can be used in handling applications during semiconductor production where the fine laser beam is an advantage. In the graphics industry or in metal and sheet metal working the improved measuring accuracy at color transitions as well as the sensitive receiver provide the basis for more reliable measurements.
