LED Illumination for Machine Vision

On this page, you will find a comprehensive product guide on LED lighting for machine vision, as well as a wide range of manufacturer-independent products. This allows you to benefit from one of the most comprehensive lighting portfolios in Europe and directly compare and select suitable solutions.

 

LED illuminations have become the universal standard for imaging applications. They offer an excellent price/performance ratio, unbeatable reliability and almost maintenance-free operation. They can be assembled in almost any shape and are available in many different colours (red, white, blue, green, IR, UV).

When is LED lighting the optimal solution for your image processing needs?

LED lighting is now the most widely used light source in industrial image processing because it produces stable, targeted and reproducible lighting conditions, which are a basic requirement for achieving reliable results. It is particularly suitable for applications where specific features need to be made visible, such as edges, colours, surface textures or fine defects. Selecting the appropriate lighting techniques, such as incident light, transmitted light or dark-field lighting, enables even challenging materials or complex geometries to be clearly captured.
 

Unlike other types of lighting, LEDs offer a high degree of flexibility, with different designs for tight or large installation spaces, various wavelengths for optimised contrast and the ability to control light direction, intensity and colour precisely. This makes them the first choice for inspections, quality control, measurement tasks and high-speed processes, wherever reproducible image data and controlled light guidance are crucial.

How to choose the right illumination for your application

There are a number of considerations when determining which type of illumination is best for a particular job:

 

  • Is it a monochrome or colour application?
  • How fast is the object moving in front of the camera?
  • What physical size (area) needs to be illuminated?
  • What is the nature of the object - geometry, structure, reflectivity, colour?
  • Which features are of particular interest?
  • What does the service life of the light need to be?
  • What are the mechanical constraints/environmental considerations?
  • How these questions are answered will determine which light is best suited to an application. The trend in imaging and machine vision is clearly towards LED and laser illumination.
