Sensor improves colour detection, inspection


Baumer’s VeriSens XC series vision sensor portfolio now includes models capable of colour identification and inspection. Setup is simple and reliable with the new Color FEX assistant. The new VGA and 1.2 megapixel models are suited for automation tasks in packaging, pick and pack, assembly monitoring, product encoding and quality assurance applications. Historically, the colour space (e.g., RGB) has been a significant challenge during setup of colour inspection tasks. The intelligent assistant enables simple and quick setup of 3D colour identification and definition. Object colours and their shades are automatically identified and visualized in 3D as colour spheres. The resulting absence of sphere collisions ensures reliable colour inspection.

The vision sensors also incorporate the high-performance functionality such as patented FEX image processor for stable image evaluation at varying light conditions or object colours; integrated flash controller with either 48V or 4A pulse to power and actuate external illumination; and a configurable web interface.
