Basler Unveils New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with High Resolution for Quality Assurance in Battery Production

Basler has introduced a new line of line scan cameras with resolutions of 8k and 16k. These cameras, known as racer 2 L, are the first models in the series and come with advanced Gpixel sensors and a CXP-12 interface. Alongside the cameras, Basler also offers essential components for a line scan vision system, like lighting and lenses. This allows for the development of top-notch applications, such as quality control in battery manufacturing.

Basler AG is introducing a new monochrome version of its Basler racer 2 L line scan camera with a CXP-12 interface, offering excellent performance at an affordable price. Equipped with state-of-the-art Gpixel sensors, this camera can achieve 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 reduce CPU load during application processing. Basler also offers all necessary components for a complete CXP-12 line scan image processing system, including lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions. This comprehensive range of products allows for easy integration and high compatibility at a cost-effective price, making it a great choice for various 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 that surrounds the surface of 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. In addition to accuracy, a high line frequency is needed to keep pace with production speed. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras meet these essential requirements, allowing for efficient and rapid fault detection.

These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics (for inspecting wafers and PCBs), logistics (for scanning barcodes), web inspection (such as print quality control), and rail inspection.
