Metre-class profile coverage
A 910 mm Z range at a 925 mm working distance places MV-DP2900 in the largest-envelope class of the DP2000 group. Its X field grows from 250 mm near through 485 mm at reference to 720 mm far. The 3200-point profile has 16.86 to 180.24 µm Z resolution, 6.59 µm repeatability and a high-frame-rate range of 1.7 to 23.9 kHz.
The long standoff and broad field support overall height, shape and edge measurement on large moving objects. The changing X coverage through Z must be included in the mechanical layout, particularly near the 250 mm end of the field. A Gigabit Ethernet link transfers profiles, while a 12-pin M12 connection provides 24 VDC power and isolated plus differential timing I/O.
MV-DP2900 extends beyond MV-DP2470's 670 mm Z range and 565 mm distance, trading its 4.45 µm repeatability for a 6.59 µm value over the larger volume. MV-DP3900 has a similar 905 mm range and 720 mm far field but reaches 46.7 kHz at a 947.5 mm working distance. Pick MV-DP2900 for DP2000-rate integration; move to MV-DP3900 when the higher scan ceiling governs.
Overview
A DP2000 series laser profiler — the base class: the sensor projects a laser line across the part and measures height at every point of the section, up to 3200 points per profile.
Working distance 925 mm, measurement range 910 mm.
Used where a profile is needed rather than a picture: weld bead control, adhesive bead height, gap and flush, warpage, parcel volume. Data goes to VM3D or 3DMVS, and to third-party software over a standard protocol.

Selection and applications
Metre-class height measurement through a 910 mm Z range. Large-object contour capture across a 485 mm reference field. 3200-point moving-line profiling up to 23.9 kHz.
Minimum kit: MV-DP2900, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, a 12-pin M12 power and I/O cable, a 24 VDC supply, and a 3DMVS, VM3D or third-party software host form the minimum acquisition kit.
Nearby in the range: MV-DP2470 — Prefer it for a 670 mm Z range at the shorter 565 mm working distance and 4.45 µm repeatability.; MV-DP3900 — Prefer it when a comparable 905 mm Z range must be profiled at up to 46.7 kHz..

FAQ
What volume does MV-DP2900 cover at its near, reference and far planes?
The Z range is 910 mm at a 925 mm working distance. Across that depth, the X field expands from 250 mm near to 485 mm at reference and 720 mm far. Fixture and target clearance should be checked against all three widths.
What profile resolution is available over the MV-DP2900 field?
MV-DP2900 records 3200 points per profile. X resolution changes from 76.5 to 250.1 µm and Z resolution from 16.86 to 180.24 µm across the volume. The listed Z repeatability is 6.59 µm under the gauge-block test condition.
How quickly can MV-DP2900 acquire profiles from a moving object?
The high-frame-rate range is 1.7 to 23.9 kHz. The appropriate value depends on the longitudinal profile spacing required at the machine's motion rate, while each transverse profile retains its 3200 measurement points.
Which electrical interfaces connect MV-DP2900 to the line?
Profile transmission uses 1000 Mbit/s Gigabit Ethernet with compatibility for 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet. The 12-pin M12 power and I/O connector supplies 24 VDC and provides two isolated inputs, two differential inputs and one differential output.
What housing and temperature limits apply to the MV-DP2900?
The IP67 housing measures 275.6 × 118.5 × 57 mm and weighs approximately 1780 g. Operation is specified from 0 to 45 °C, storage from -30 to 80 °C, and humidity from 20 to 85% RH without condensation.
Which software routes are named for handling MV-DP2900 profiles?
The software choices are 3DMVS, VM3D and third-party software. The 3200-point profiles are carried over Gigabit Ethernet, so host processing and link capacity should be matched to the active rate within 1.7 to 23.9 kHz.
