In automation technology visions sensors are today an integral part of assembly, production and quality control and last not least increase efficiency. They are cameras with application-specific evaluation, i.e. reliable electronic eyes at low cost with a high degree of integration. From the camera to the sensor. A few years ago high-price camera systems were needed. Due to technical developments and continuously falling prices for components ever more intelligent functions could be implemented at low cost in an ever smaller space. Compact vision sensors not only replace camera systems but also...

Contour sensor As for a toy box: The O2D vision sensor can recognise and assign previously defined objects and their contours or structures in order to check completeness, position and orientation. Comparable to a counting frame or slide rule, the O2V vision sensor counts all pixels of the areas of identical grey-Pixel counter scale values of an image. Furthermore, it can group accumulations of certain grey-scale values to individual objects and assess by different criteria. Code reader 3D sensor Today bar codes are widely used and can be understood as font styles to be read from right to left. 2D...

Object recognition type O2D All geometries in focus The electronic eye The application possibilities of the contour sensor efector dualis range from presence, position and orientation monitoring via sorting and counting tasks to quality control. Flexible: Orientation-independent contour verification. 32 scenes with up to 24 different objects can be saved in the unit. Reliable: The sensor reliably detects the defined geometries at close and long range even with changing lighting conditions or backgrounds. Password protection against unauthorised access. Variants with different viewing angles for...

Object recognition for assembly, production and quality control With an intuitive step-by-step interface and good / bad parts the user can simply create a model of the object to be recognised. The recognition software compares the object with the saved ideal, regardless of orientation, and transmits the results (good or bad, position, orientation) to the higher-level PLC. The sensor can manage up to 32 separate tasks with a maximum of 24 models each. In the photo on the left the contour sensor checks the correct diameter of the wheel nut drills on a brake disk. Horizontal and vertical coordinates...

Object inspection O2V Checking variable features of objects and scenes Whereas common vision sensors check parts on the basis of defined contours (like the contour sensor O2D) the new O2V pixel counter compares on the basis of variable features. Flexible: Extensive assessment parameters for a reliable object inspection by means of variable features. 32 scenes with up to 24 different objects can be saved in the unit. Everything at a glance: Variants with different viewing angles for different field of view sizes. Safe: Password protection against unauthorised access. Everything documented: Data...

Outer and inner width and height Object inspection for packaging, production and quality control Instead of a defined contour the user determines relative features used by the sensor to assess an object or a scene. Within freely selectable tolerances the sensor determines features such as area, size, roundness or compactness of an object. Furthermore, the grey-scale values can also be used for assessment. The O2V vision sensor is reliably used for the full / empty control of transport and production vessels. Outer and inner radius Area in number of pixels The photo on the left, for example, shows...

3D object recognition type O3D The third dimension at a glance Level measurement: Award winning: The first industrial 3D sensor that detects objects in three dimensions at a glance. The sensor operates on the principle of time of flight measurement based on PMD technology. The sensor is suitable for continuous level measurements of nontransparent solids and bulk materials in tanks, silos, hoppers or in heaps. Monitoring conveyors for level or belt usage is also possible. In the measuring range the sensor determines the level via the defined background and transmits the analogue level value or...
