"Many capacitive sensors can very reliably resolve a dozen microns or so. They work great for plastics. They are not overly expensive. The resolution required determines the cost of the drive equipment."

"Hi Luis- The only two devices I know that would detect the gap optically would be either a laser micrometer: http://www.me-sensor.com/products/dimension-2D-3D-sensors/optical-micrometer/optoCONTROL_2500/index.html or a laser triangulation…"

Looking for sensor that sense very small features

We are looking for a "through beam" or similar sensor to be use in alignment application as shown on the picture attached. We will use two sensors that can align a sheet of metal or plastic within Y and X coordinates with a precision of .001" as shown in the image. The slot perforated in the sheet are .001" width so laser beam of sensor should be no more than .001" width as well.. Once the two photoelectric sensors cross the the small slot in the plastic sheet then sensor will send signal to…See More
