Basler Unveils New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with High Resolution for Precision Imaging Applications
Basler introduces new line scan cameras with resolutions of 8k and 16k, known as the racer 2 L series. These cameras feature updated Gpixel sensors and a CXP-12 interface. Basler also offers various components necessary for a line scan vision system, like lighting and lenses, enabling the implementation of advanced applications like quality control in battery manufacturing.
Basler AG is expanding its line scan camera offerings with the introduction of the new Basler racer 2 L, which is a monochrome version featuring a CXP-12 interface at a great price/performance ratio. This camera utilizes Gpixel sensors to provide 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 access a pre-processing solution that helps reduce the CPU workload in their applications. Basler also offers all the necessary components for a CXP-12 line scan image processing system, including lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions, making it a convenient one-stop shop for customers. This comprehensive range of products has been extensively tested to ensure simple integration and maximum compatibility at a cost-effective price, making it a preferred choice for many high-performance image processing applications.
Targeted use: line scan cameras designed specifically for inspecting batteries.
The battery production industry is expanding quickly. It is crucial to maintain a high quality layer around the battery electrodes to ensure the battery functions optimally. To detect even the smallest defects on the electrodes during production, a powerful machine vision system with a high-quality camera is necessary. The camera must have a high line frequency to keep up with the production speed. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras meet these requirements, allowing for effective and fast detection of faults.
These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics for inspecting wafers and PCBs, in logistics for reading barcodes, in print for web inspection, and in rail inspection.
