Smart camera with measuring function

1 July 2015 Opto-Electronics

The Leuze LSIS 462i smart camera brings additional functionality to detection applications with its ability to provide accurate measurements. The new measurement function is based on edge scanning and enables the reliable and reproducible detection and measurement of distances and geometric shapes such as circles, lines and edges, and also facilitates blob analysis and code reading.

The camera combines all the required components including image processing and illumination, data storage and interfaces as well as a display for operation and viewing results in one compact unit. A number of standard measurements are available for various applications including contact gap measurement in the electronics industry, tolerance tests and quality assurance in the automotive industry, dimensional accuracy tests in the mechanical engineering sector and specification of label positions and alignment within the beverage industry.

In addition to type detection, specification of position and location as well as monitoring for presence, completeness and dimension, the LSIS 462i is ideal for detecting and evaluating labels at high speed. The camera is able to read printed and directly marked 1D or 2D codes with high levels of reliability, irrespective of contrast or whether the labels are in reflective or inverted form.

Configuration of the camera is simple, using a web-based standard browser. Other notable features are the motor driven focal adjustment and homogenous illumination via free-form surface optics.
