Key Specifications

The High-Resolution Line Scan Camera Module delivers 12K pixel resolution across a 57 mm sensor width, capturing 80,000 lines per second. This enables detection of surface micro-cracks and geometric deviations as small as 5 microns on conveyor bands moving at up to 5 m/s.

The CMOS sensor uses global shutter technology to eliminate motion blur, even at maximum line rates. Each pixel measures 5 µm × 5 µm, providing the sensitivity needed for low-contrast defects on reflective or textured surfaces.

• 12K pixel array (12,288 pixels per line)
• 80 kHz maximum line rate
• 5 µm pixel pitch for high-resolution capture
• Global shutter with 1 µs exposure control
• GigE Vision and Camera Link interface options
• IP67-rated aluminum housing with C-mount lens adapter

Integration and Connectivity

The module connects directly to existing quality control networks via GigE Vision (PoE support) or Camera Link (full configuration). Both interfaces provide real-time image transfer with minimal latency — under 2 ms from exposure to host memory. The included SDK supports C++, Python, and LabVIEW for custom integration.

Trigger inputs accept encoder signals from conveyor systems, allowing precise line synchronization with belt movement. A built-in programmable gain amplifier adjusts sensitivity across a 60 dB range, compensating for variations in lighting and material reflectivity.

Environmental Durability

Rated IP67, the housing withstands dust ingress and temporary immersion in water. Operating temperature ranges from -10°C to 60°C, with active cooling for sustained high-speed operation. The optical window uses anti-reflective coated fused silica, resistant to scratches and chemical cleaning agents common in factory environments.

Vibration tolerance meets IEC 60068-2-6 standards for continuous industrial use. The module has been tested on conveyor lines in automotive stamping plants and electronics assembly facilities, logging over 10,000 hours without sensor degradation.

Typical Applications

Automotive manufacturers use this camera to inspect stamped metal panels for micro-cracks along weld seams. Electronics producers scan PCB assemblies for solder joint defects and component misalignment. Packaging lines detect pinholes in film and foil laminates at full production speed.

In each case, the camera feeds raw line data to the Matrix Image Processing Software Suite, which classifies defects in real time and triggers rejection or marking systems. The combination of high line rate and fine pixel pitch reduces false positives by 40% compared to lower-resolution alternatives.
