Baumer Digital Industrial Cameras are high-performance imaging solutions designed for demanding industrial applications. These cameras are engineered to capture high-quality images in real-time for a wide range of automation, inspection, and monitoring tasks. Baumer’s industrial cameras are typically used in machine vision systems, quality control, and process monitoring.
Key Features of Baumer Digital Industrial Cameras:
High Resolution: Baumer cameras offer a variety of resolution options, from standard to high-definition (HD), ensuring clear and precise image capture for accurate analysis.
Various Sensor Types:
CCD (Charge-Coupled Device): Known for high image quality and low noise, making them suitable for precise measurement tasks.
CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor): Often used for faster frame rates and lower power consumption, ideal for real-time applications.
Frame Rates: Baumer cameras offer different frame rates, from standard to high-speed options, depending on the application’s need for real-time processing and motion capture.
Global Shutter: Some Baumer cameras feature global shutters, which are crucial for capturing fast-moving objects without motion blur. This is particularly useful in high-speed production lines and automotive applications.
GigE Vision & USB3 Vision: Baumer cameras support high-speed data transfer protocols, such as GigE Vision and USB3 Vision, for seamless integration into industrial networks and fast image processing.
Flexible Interface Options: Multiple communication protocols such as Gigabit Ethernet (GigE), USB 3.0, and Camera Link enable easy integration with various machine vision systems.
Compact Design: Baumer industrial cameras are typically compact, allowing for flexible integration in limited spaces while still delivering powerful performance.
Built-in Image Processing: Some models feature basic on-camera processing capabilities, reducing the need for external computing resources and allowing faster decisions on the production floor.
Robustness: Baumer digital industrial cameras are built to withstand harsh industrial environments, with features such as IP-rated housing (for protection against dust and moisture) and wide operating temperature ranges.
Color and Monochrome: Baumer offers both color and monochrome cameras, allowing users to select the appropriate sensor type based on their specific application (e.g., detecting subtle color variations or analyzing high-contrast black-and-white images).
