B&R has developed a comprehensive lighting system for its vision solution. Lighting control is synchronized with the automation system in the sub-µs range.
Highlights
Lighting control with µs precision
Immune to extraneous light
Automatic adaptation to every situation
Integrated diagnostics
The lighting and camera are an integral part of the machine control application. Synchronization with sensors, motor positions and events in the machine is easily configured in the machine application. Lighting control with microsecond precision is even guaranteed when synchronizing multiple cameras and light sources.
Each light has an integrated strobe controller, so no external hardware is required. The controller ensures a precise pulse current supply to the powerful LEDs. This enables light pulses of at least one microsecond duration at maximum intensity. The B&R vision system can therefore also be used for high-speed applications without any problems.
Light bars
The light bars can be ordered individually or in assemblies of two, three or four. The flexible light bars feature electronic beam angle adjustment and make it possible to implement bright-field illumination (left) and dark-field illumination (right) with the same device, simply by changing a single parameter.
Ringlights
Ringlights are comprised of either four, six or eight barlights, and provide exceptionally homogeneous illumination.
Factory calibrated
B&R calibrates its light bars and backlights prior to delivery. This means that lighting components can be exchanged in the field without requiring any changes to the machine vision application.
