Basler Launches New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with 8k and 16k Resolution for High-End Vision Applications in Battery Production and Beyond
Basler has introduced the new racer 2 L line scan cameras in 8k and 16k resolutions, marking the start of their new line scan camera series. These cameras feature the latest Gpixel sensors and CXP-12 interface. Basler also provides essential components for a line scan vision system, such as lighting and lenses, enabling the implementation of advanced applications like quality assurance in battery production.
Basler AG has added the Basler racer 2 L line scan camera to its product line, offering a monochrome version with a CXP-12 interface at a competitive price. This camera features Gpixel sensors that allow for 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 the CPU load in their applications through pre-processing. Basler also offers all the necessary components for a CXP-12 line scan image processing system, such as lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions, making it a convenient one-stop shop for customers. This range of products has been extensively tested to ensure easy integration and maximum compatibility at an affordable price, making it an ideal choice for high-performance image processing applications.
Intended use: line scan cameras specifically designed for inspecting batteries.
The market for battery production is expanding quickly. It is crucial to maintain a high quality layer around the surface of battery electrodes to ensure the battery operates optimally. To detect even the smallest defects on the electrodes during production, a powerful machine vision system with a high-quality camera is necessary. In addition to accuracy, a high line frequency is essential to keep pace with production speeds. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras meet these key requirements, allowing for efficient and speedy detection of faults.
These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics (for inspecting wafers and PCBs), logistics (for capturing barcodes), web inspection (such as print quality control), and rail inspection.
