PEPPERL+FUCHS Laser / Camera (OMD30M-R2000-B23)

A lighthouse sweeps the horizon to keep ships away from the rocks; the PEPPERL+FUCHS Laser / Camera (OMD30M-R2000-B23) sweeps its surroundings to tell a machine precisely where the world begins. In its R2000 UHD version the beam covers a full 360° at a measuring speed of 250000 measurements per second, and it reports what it finds over an ordinary Fast Ethernet connection. What turns a fast rotating sensor into a practical engineering component is everything around that beam: fine angular detail, a housing rated IP65, configuration through an established software framework and, unusually, a display built directly into the optical surface.

Robots Middle East supplies the OMD30M-R2000-B23 to robot builders, system integrators and site operators across the Middle East. Our team quotes each order against the exact version your project requires, arranges delivery to your facility and remains your point of contact for technical support once the scanner is installed, so that the choice of variant, the interface plan and the open specification points are settled before the device reaches your workbench.

Background

PEPPERL+FUCHS and the R2000 family

PEPPERL+FUCHS is a long-established name in industrial sensing, and its products are found in factory automation, process plants and intralogistics. The R2000 series is the company's line of rotating laser measurement devices, intended for applications in which a machine needs a continuous picture of the space around it rather than a single distance reading. Within the OMD30M-R2000-B23 designation the sources name three versions: the OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-1L (R2000 UHD), the OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-HD-1L (R2000 HD) and the OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-T-1L, an R2000 UHD version designated for deep-freeze use. The figures on this page belong to the OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-1L.

Pulse Ranging Technology and the integrated display

The scanner measures with Pulse Ranging Technology (PRT). As a class, pulse ranging works by emitting short pulses of light and timing their return from a target, which allows distance to be determined without relying on the phase of a continuous signal. Here the light source is a laser diode operating at a wave length of 905 nm, in laser class 1. Two design choices distinguish the device in daily use. First, an interactive all-round display is integrated in the optical surface and can freely display individual texts and graphics, so status information is visible on the sensor itself. Second, a PACTware device type manager (DTM) has been developed specifically for this series, giving engineers a structured way to configure and diagnose the scanner within a familiar tool environment.

Technical Specifications

Specifications are as published by the manufacturer and are confirmed against the datasheet at quotation.

The manufacturer has not published the width and length of the housing, the package contents, or the operating temperature range and humidity rating for this version; Robots Middle East confirms these with you at quotation.

What sets the OMD30M-R2000-B23 apart from a basic distance sensor?

A single-point distance sensor answers one question: how far away is the object in front of it? The OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-1L answers a far broader one, because its 360° scanning angle and angle resolution of 0.014 ° let it describe an entire surrounding contour rather than one spot. Combined with a measuring speed of 250000 measurements per second, that resolution gives a controller dense data from which walls, racking, pallets and people can be distinguished, while a repeat accuracy of < 12 mm supports consistent results when the same scene is measured again and again.

The integration side matters just as much. Fast Ethernet with HTTP, TCP/IP and UDP/IP means the data can be brought into a robot controller or industrial PC without a proprietary bus, while the 2 switching outputs allow simple signals to be passed directly to other equipment. A power consumption of < 10 W keeps the load on a battery-powered platform modest, and at approx. 0.8 kg and 116.5 mm in height the unit remains manageable on a compact vehicle. Finally, the display in the optical surface means a technician can read status texts or graphics on the sensor itself, which is a genuine convenience when a scanner is mounted high on a machine or deep inside a cell.

Which OMD30M-R2000-B23 version should you choose?

The choice begins with the environment. The OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-1L (R2000 UHD) is the version whose figures are set out above, and it is the natural reference point for general factory and warehouse projects. The OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-T-1L carries the deep-freeze designation and is the version to discuss if your application sits in cold storage. The OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-HD-1L (R2000 HD) is a further variant within the same designation. The figures in the table above belong to the UHD version alone; for the HD and deep-freeze versions, Robots Middle East provides the datasheet of the version you specify together with the offer.

Who is the PEPPERL+FUCHS Laser / Camera (OMD30M-R2000-B23) for?

The first group is builders of autonomous mobile robots and automated guided vehicles, who need a sensor that surveys the full circle around the platform, connects over standard Ethernet and draws little power from the vehicle battery. The second is system integrators in manufacturing, for whom the scanner becomes the eyes of a monitored work cell or a transfer line; projects of this kind sit naturally alongside our Factory Robots range. The third is intralogistics operators and the integrators who serve them, where navigation between racks, docking at stations and detection of obstructions in aisles are daily requirements, as reflected in our Logistics Robots category.

Cold-chain operators form a distinct segment: for freezer warehouses the deep-freeze OMD30M-R2000-B23-V1V1D-T-1L is the version to request. Research groups and engineering teams developing their own mapping or perception software will also value the open protocols and the PACTware DTM. Buyers surveying the wider R2000 family may wish to review the PEPPERL+FUCHS Laser / Camera (OMD25M-R2000) page as well, and our team will gladly help you compare the two against your requirements.

What is the PEPPERL+FUCHS Laser / Camera (OMD30M-R2000-B23) used for?

1. Mobile robot navigation — supplying continuous contour data from which a vehicle can localise itself and plan its route.
2. Obstacle detection — recognising objects and people in the path of a moving platform so the controller can react.
3. Area monitoring — watching the space around a machine or work cell and signalling changes through the switching outputs.
4. Docking and positioning — helping a vehicle align accurately with charging points, conveyors or load stations.
5. Contour and profile measurement — capturing the outline of goods, pallets or structures for checking and sorting.
6. Cold-store automation — guiding equipment in freezer warehouses using the deep-freeze version of the scanner.
