Line Scan Camera for Identification in Logistics
Model Number: VICAMssi2
By: VITRONIC Machine Vision Ltd.
The VICAMssi2 pushes the envelope of technology: it can be used at conveyor speeds of up to 885fpm, it is small and light, easy to handle, install and service, and it requires less energy. The VICAMssi2 is optimized for outstanding image quality at fastest conveyor speeds, resulting in highest barcode, 2-D code and OCR (optical character recognition) read rates. The camera unit consists of a compact LED illumination, a high-resolution high-speed line scan camera, a compact power supply and, as an option, an attached mini PC for simple identification tasks as an all-integrated stand-alone system.
35% shorter and lighter: At 26” width, the VICAMssi2 is about 35% shorter than previous generations with improved image quality. Although the unit is much smaller, the camera still covers an object width of 40”. The weight has been reduced by about 35% to just 35 lbs.
The new LED illumination unit is not just smaller and lighter than before. It has also been further optimized in terms of brightness uniformity for every point in the field of view, and the light intensity is automatically adjusted for various belt speeds and different object orientations.
The camera is faster than previous generations and delivers an even better image quality. It is rated for belt speeds of up to 885 fpm. Even at this extreme speed, the camera is able to acquire images at a resolution of 170dpi. Furthermore, the focus mechanism adapts to high speeds.
While complex and multi-sided identification tasks are still processed by separate, powerful PCs, Vitronic offers an optional bolt-on mini PC for barcode/2-D code reading and simple OCR tasks. This mini PC is attached directly to the illumination unit, using the system’s power supply.
The operating status of the camera unit is continually monitored. All factors that influence the life span of the camera and illumination are permanently recorded. This data is considered during factory servicing, providing rapid analysis.
