Pourquoi choisir Mitsubishi Electric - CIS for Standard Applications ?
High-Speed Production Control
With line rates up to 43 kHz and transport speeds up to 433 m/min, the Line Scan Bars are designed for demanding industrial production environments. High-speed operation is maintained without compromising image quality or inspection accuracy. Customers can maximize throughput while ensuring consistent product quality.
True Color Inspection
The AX4 Series uses a tri-linear CMOS sensor architecture to capture genuine RGB color information line by line. This enables accurate color differentiation, print verification, and surface inspection in applications where color consistency is critical. Users achieve improved quality control while reducing false rejects and manual inspections.
1:1 Telecentric Imaging
The integrated GRIN lens technology creates a true 1:1 representation of the inspected object on the sensor. Unlike conventional optical systems, the telecentric imaging principle minimizes distortion and maintains consistent magnification across the entire scanning width. Customers benefit from highly accurate measurements, reliable defect detection, and repeatable inspection results.
Compact All-in-One Design
The CIS-based architecture integrates sensor and optics into a highly compact form factor. Integrated illumination further simplifies machine design and reduces installation complexity. This results in faster system integration, lower engineering effort, and reduced total system costs.
Flexible System Integration
Designed for seamless integration, the compact Line Scan Bars feature a standardized CameraLink interface, integrated illumination, and multiple scanning widths from 309 mm to 926 mm. With resolutions of up to 600 dpi, users can select the ideal configuration to match their inspection requirements, balancing image quality, speed, and system cost. Machine builders and OEMs benefit from reduced engineering effort, faster system integration, and a solution that is precisely tailored to their application.
Optimized for Industrial Reliability
Designed for continuous operation, the AX4 and MX Series provide stable imaging performance in demanding production environments. The fixed optical setup eliminates the need for lens adjustments and minimizes maintenance requirements. Customers benefit from increased system uptime and predictable long-term performance.
