Project a laser onto the surface and measure the distance from the surface by means of an oblique camera. They come in a variety of ranges, resolutions and accuracies.
More details ................
These project a laser line onto the surface and have one or two oblique array cameras that determine the shape and position of the visible laser line. Very effective where large areas need measuring or digitising.
More details ................
Similar to Laser Micrometer but uses a spread laser beam that project a shadow onto the receiver. Very fast and often used for flaw detection on fast running lines. Has
typically only a small measuring field.

Ultrasonic Distance sensor
Designed to measure distances in air or water (similar to a sonar).
Ideal for larger distances such as level sensing etc. that do not requires highest resolution or accuracy.
More details ................
The means to sense most processes .......
Laser Micrometer / Laser Scanning sensor
Highly precise and versatile. Ideal for measuring Outside Diameter (OD), Thick-ness a reference, Width, Gap and Position. Several can be combined to measure in two axis or control Wall Thickness. Rugged.
More details ................
Using Laser it measures speed and length of most materials to 0.05% accuracy.
Soft, hard, hot or uneven surface have no effect on the measurement result.
Suitable for speeds up to 3000 m/min.

Non-contact Length and Speed sensor
Laser Triangulation Distance sensors
Laser Profile sensor / scanner
I.e. Gauges & Systems that measure a product dimension, quantity or length and typically
have their own displays and control.
Linear Incremental Tape Encoder
This device has a coarse pitch stainless tape that runs frictionless through an optical reading head. Resolutions of either 0.1 mm or 1 mm are achievable with an accuracy of up to 0.03 mm /metre.
