Basler Revolutionizes Line Scan Cameras with New CXP-12 Models: Enhancing Quality Assurance in Battery Production and Beyond
Basler has introduced a new series of line scan cameras, the racer 2 L 8k and 16k models, featuring advanced Gpixel sensors and a CXP-12 interface. Along with the cameras, Basler also offers essential components like lighting and lenses for a complete line scan vision system. These cameras are ideal for high-end applications, such as quality assurance in battery production.
Basler AG is introducing a new monochrome version of its Basler racer 2 L line scan camera, featuring a CXP-12 interface at a great price/performance ratio. This camera utilizes advanced Gpixel sensors to offer resolutions of 8k or 16k with line rates of up to 200 kHz. By using Basler frame grabbers and VisualApplets software for FPGA programming, users can implement pre-processing solutions that reduce CPU load in applications. Basler also provides 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 applications.
Intended use: line scan cameras designed for inspecting batteries.
The market for battery production is expanding quickly. It is crucial to maintain high quality in the layer that covers the surface of battery electrodes for the battery to work 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 meet these criteria and allow for efficient and quick detection of faults in battery production.
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.
