Automation Technology C2

3D cameras with GigE Vision interface

The AT C2 series delivers 3D data at high speed across a GigE Vision compliant interface. The on-board pre-processing of the raw image data provides previously unattainable frame rates for inspection, measurement and sorting in the third dimension. Available in several models with profile widths of 640 pixels and 2040 pixels.

Configuration is made easy by the comprehensive feature set accessible via the plug and play GenICam protocol and is thus directly compatible with any software that is GigE Vision compliant, including STEMMER IMAGING's Common Vision Blox (CVB). A free of charge CVB CameraSuite licence is included with every camera. With a choice of data rates the AT C2 series can run up to 25 kHz . The in-built memory allows for output of either line profile data, or the ability to build an area profile internally.

Overview

3D acquisition using sheet-of-light triangulation
Evaluation of laser line position inside camera
Wide selection of 3D camera algorithms: profile-TRSH, profile-MAX, profile-Cog, optionally user specific
Maximum profile rate independent of the algorithm used
Up to 8 sensor read-out windows (AOIs) freely selectable in image or profile mode
Flexible trigger functions for profile and image triggering
Easy configuration and integration using the GenICam control grid

Implementation

Output of the range map via GigE Vision
IP67 rated housing
Optional lens protection tube made from anodised aluminium with sealing ring and anti-reflective glass shield
