Basler Launches New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with 8k and 16k Resolution for High-End Applications in Battery Production and Beyond
Basler is introducing the new racer 2 L 8k and 16k line scan cameras, which are the first models in their new line scan camera series. These cameras come with advanced Gpixel sensors and a CXP-12 interface. Basler also provides all necessary components for a line scan vision system, like lighting and lenses, allowing for the implementation of top-tier applications such as quality assurance in battery production.
Basler AG has introduced the new Basler racer 2 L line scan camera in a monochrome version with a CXP-12 interface. This camera offers high resolutions of 8k or 16k and can achieve line rates of up to 200 kHz, thanks to advanced Gpixel sensors. By using Basler frame grabbers and VisualApplets software for FPGA programming, users can reduce the CPU load during pre-processing. Basler also offers all necessary components for a CXP-12 line scan image processing system, such as lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions. This range of products is designed for easy integration and maximum compatibility at a cost-effective price, making it ideal for high-performance image processing applications.
Intended use: line scan cameras designed for examining batteries.
The market for battery production is expanding quickly. It is crucial to maintain high quality in the layer around the battery electrodes to ensure the battery functions optimally. To accurately detect even the smallest defects on the electrodes during production, a powerful camera with high resolution is necessary. In addition to accuracy, a high line frequency is also important to keep up with the speed of production. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras meet these essential criteria, allowing for efficient and quick detection of faults.
These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics for tasks like inspecting wafers and PCBs, in logistics for scanning barcodes, in print for web inspection, and in rail for inspection purposes.
