Back Wall and Sensor Fox Technology

Back Wall and Sensor Fox Technology

This functionality is available from the M6A onwards and allows plug and play extended functionality:

  • Scalability – run image analysis tasks across multiple analyser units to increase processing power.
  • Redundancy – minimise downtime by adding auxiliary analyser or camera heads. Built in fault management allows automatic changeover of hardware.
  • IEEE 1588 time sync - automatic synchronisation of cameras and hardware devices to within 1 microsecond.
  • Full duplex communication – strobe, image acquisition and management of multiple images.
  • Sensor Fox logic state analyser and Generator – identify faults and improve data throughput.

Antares Explorer Suite

Antares Explorer Suite

A free graphical software utility for configuring vision sensors, smart cameras and analyser hardware. Only required for initial set-up of stand alone device and has many added benefits:

  • Part of complete Tattile system – no compatibility issues.
  • Fully backward compatible allowing for supporting existing devices.
  • Develop analysis tasks and then select the hardware to use.
  • Develop/maintain analysis systems on site using laptop.
  • Plug into network and manage multiple devices from a central or remote location.
  • Backup analysis tasks and data on your network.

SICK|IVP Integrated Vision Products supplies sensor systems for high-speed 3D machine vision. Since its conception in 1985 SICK|IVP's extraordinary systems of automated visual inspection have been awarded patents throughout the world.

Thanks to its staff of outstanding engineering and programming specialists an entire family of “smart cameras” have been transforming industrial processes.

In June 2003, SICK|IVP became subsidiary to the multinational German corporation SICK AG.

3D Profiling

3D Profiling

Ranger C

The Ranger C camera measures 3D features at unmatched speeds producing a complete data set of the object measured. Providing a 3rd dimension adds height and shape measurement data, which can be critical when correctly classifying an object.

  • High Performance and flexibility are the keywords for the Ranger. It is capable of acquiring 20,000 3D profiles per second. Each profile contains up to 1536 high quality 3D co-ordinates; that is more than 30 million points per second!
  • A small and robust camera unit, which is the solution to any 3D inspection task. It incorporates a powerful C/C++ interface for optimal solutions.
  • The camera handles the image processing and the ready-to-use 3D coordinates are sent directly to a standard PC via Cameralink. This eliminates the need for expensive post processors or high-speed frame grabbers.

IVP Ruler

  • IVP Ruler is the solution for demanding 3D applications in any production line. It is designed to measure anything from logs in a sawmill to cars in the automotive Industry. IVP Ruler is intended for tough environment with a shield level of IP65.
  • IVP Ruler contains a laser and Image sensor assembled in fixed positions. It is calibrated before delivery to give you high quality 3D data. Can acquire 2000 profiles per second with a profile width of 512 measuring points.
  • Active X technology gives you short development time and a cost effective solution.
