High Precision Pd-54n 56n 58n Series Laser Instrument

Laser is a new technology developed in the 1960s. It is a kind of light with pure color, highly concentrated energy and good directionality. Laser rangefinder is an instrument that uses laser to measure distance. Its working principle is simple: measure the distance by measuring the time from the beginning of the laser emission to the laser reflection from the target. For example, to measure the distance of the moon with a laser rangefinder, if the time from the beginning of the laser launch to the reflection from the moon is measured as 2.56 seconds, the one-way time from the laser launch to the moon is equal to 1.28 seconds, and the speed of the laser is the speed of light, equal to 300000 kilometers per second. Therefore, the measured distance from the moon to the earth is the product of one-way time and the speed of light, which is 384000 kilometers. In order to transmit and receive laser and time, the laser rangefinder is composed of laser transmitter, receiver, clock frequency oscillator and distance counter.

When the emitted laser beam power is sufficient, the measuring range can reach about 40 kilometers or even more, and the laser rangefinder can work day and night, but when there is a material with high laser absorption rate in space, its ranging distance and accuracy will decline. The laser rangefinder can also be used to track and range the satellite, measure the flight height of the aircraft, aim and range the target, and conduct topographic mapping and survey.
