Basler Unveils New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with 8k and 16k Resolution for High-End Applications in Battery Production and Beyond
Basler introduces new line scan cameras with 8k and 16k resolution, known as the racer 2 L series. These cameras are the first models in Basler's new line scan camera lineup and come with Gpixel sensors and a CXP-12 interface. Basler also provides lighting and lenses for a complete line scan vision system, allowing for high-quality applications like quality control in battery manufacturing.
Basler AG has introduced a new monochrome version of its line scan camera, the Basler racer 2 L, which features a CXP-12 interface at a great price/performance ratio. This camera comes equipped with advanced Gpixel sensors, offering resolutions of 8k or 16k and line rates of up to 200 kHz. By using Basler frame grabbers and VisualApplets software for FPGA programming, users can reduce CPU load in their applications through pre-processing solutions. Basler also offers all necessary components for a CXP-12 line scan image processing system, such as lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions, making integration simple and cost-effective for high-performance image processing tasks.
Intended use: line scan cameras designed for examining batteries
The battery production industry is expanding quickly. It is crucial to maintain high quality in the layer surrounding the battery electrodes for the battery to function optimally. To detect even the smallest defects on the electrodes during production, a powerful camera with high accuracy and line frequency is needed. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras fulfill these essential criteria, allowing for efficient and rapid detection of faults in the production process.
These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics (for inspecting wafers and PCBs), logistics (for capturing barcodes), web inspection (like print quality control), and rail inspection.
