Industry automation solutions provider Omron Automation introduces the new SWIR camera series that uses unique Short Wave Infrared technology to help overcome common manufacturing challenges. By utilizing this latest technology, it delivers unmatched performance in capturing images and data exceeding the capabilities of traditional cameras. The sensitivity to wavelengths beyond what the human eye can see opens doors to many applications across industries.

 

Manufacturers in the Food and Commodity industry struggle with ambient lighting interfering with machine vision inspections. By utilizing SWIR, vision engineers and system designers can remove the need to depend on traditional lighting and are equipped with highly controlled and precise inspection, removing variability. In the Semiconductor and Electronic industries, post manufacturing inspections require intrusive technologies. SWIR revolutionizes this process by allowing inspectors to see through different visual spectrums, facilitating inspections of concealed items, even under plastic wrap or silicon coating.


Key features:

  •     Top of the line, high-end sensors- Sony Pregius IMX990 and IMX991 SWIR Sensors
  •     Unique Interfaces for Customizability- GigE Vision, USB3 Vision, Camera Link Interfaces
  •     0.3MP or 1.3MP resolution
  •     One-of-a-kind Heat dissipation technology- Fanless Peltier Cooling Design
  •     Removes environmental dependency and variability- SWIR technology allows for highly controlled and precision inspection
  •     Inspect the impossible- SWIR technology allows inspection throughout the full manufacturing process, even under plastic wrap or silicon coating.

US Digital's New L2 Low Profile Motor Encoder

US Digital's New L2 Low Profile Motor Encoder

The L2 incremental encoder uses US Digital's proven EM1 optical encoder module and disk, which has billions of device-hours of dependable service in customer applications. This product continues US Digital's strong reputation for reliable, field-tested encoders. The L2 is US Digital's lowest height encoder that uses the EM1 module. It has a 0.75 in. bolt-spacing mount. The maximum resolution is 1250 CPR (5000 PPR with quadrature). The L2 comes with a single-ended output. Another benefit of the L2 incremental encoder is its fast installation. The cover snaps onto the base to secure the module. It is designed for use with a high-retention connector or cable (sold separately). Like all US Digital products, the L2 is designed and manufactured in Vancouver, Washington, USA. It is backed by prompt access to our technical and customer service teams with same-day shipping on most orders.
