Basler Unveils New CXP-12 Line Scan Cameras with 8k and 16k Resolution for High-End Vision Applications, Including Battery Production Quality Assurance
Basler has introduced 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 feature the latest Gpixel sensors and CXP-12 interface. Along with the cameras, Basler also provides essential components for a line scan vision system, such as lighting and lenses. This allows for the implementation of advanced applications, like quality assurance in battery production.
Basler AG is introducing a new monochrome version of their line scan camera, the Basler racer 2 L, which comes with a CXP-12 interface at a great price/performance ratio. 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 benefit from a pre-processing solution that reduces the CPU load. Basler also offers all necessary components for a complete CXP-12 line scan image processing system, such as lighting, lenses, cables, and cooling solutions. This range of products is extensively tested and designed for simple integration and maximum compatibility, making it a cost-effective option for high-performance image processing applications.
Intended use: line scan cameras designed for examining batteries.
The battery production market is expanding quickly. It is crucial to have high-quality layers around the surface of battery electrodes to ensure the battery functions optimally. To detect small defects on the electrodes during production, a powerful camera with machine vision system is needed. The camera must also have a high line frequency to keep up with the production speed. Basler's racer 2 L line scan cameras fulfill these important criteria, allowing for efficient and quick detection of faults.
These cameras are commonly used in various industries such as electronics for inspecting wafers and PCBs, logistics for capturing barcodes, print industry for web inspection, and in railway inspection.
