Buy Digital video cameras for industrial applications
Digital video cameras for industrial applications (machine vision cameras), featuring: * Digital interface (preferably Firewire IEEE1394a, but USB2.0 also accepted) * Resolution: 0.3Mpixel / 1.3Mpixel / 2 Mpixel / 3 Mpixel * Frame rate: 5....20 fps * C-mount lens thread * Global shutter (very important) * CCD or CMOS image sensors * Size: as small as possible
Application: Machine Vision application for industrial use, such as * Assembly line monitoring * Quality assurance * Automatic quality inspection (“good” / “fail” check) * Packing machine monitoring * Textile machine supervision
Function: The specified camera supervises / monitors a specific area where a process happens. It records i.e. one frame per passing part, transfers that image as an electronic file in a given format to a PC-based “Vision Processor”. That Vision Processor then processes the image into an output signal of i.e. “pass” or “fail”. Some applications may require to download some or all images on a mass storage device like a HDD (note: the mentioned Vision Processor is NOT part of the camera).
