A New concept Of Line
Scan Camera
Vision Systems Oy has developed
totally new innovative concept of line scan camera.
VISI5000 TWINCAM is a two
channel camera consisting of two optical measurement
heads and one electronic
unit. This concept reduce costs and makes measurement systems more compact.
Advantages of the integration
This integration minimizes
the data transfer, which often slows the measuring down.
Now video signals from the
measurement heads are transferred differentially to the electronic unit.
The electronic unit digitizes the signals, takes care about binary or gray
scale image handling routines
and calculated the results. Several VISI5000 TWINCAMs
can be connected in one
system. The electronic unit with processor can now be taken away
from production line into
a field cabin which makes the system more reliable and easier to maintain.

High resolution
The new VISI5000 TWINCAM
consists of two measurement heads with 5000 pixel CCD-
elements each. The measurement
heads can be taken at least 55 m away from the electronic unit without
any affects on the result of measurement. Now measuring of long
or wide objects on production
lines can be measured without any problems with one
instrument. VISI5000 is
also available with one measurement head only.
Rugged and protected for
heavy duty
VISI5000 measurement heads
can be taken to industrial environment due to their protection class of
IP65. The windows of the measurement heads can be kept clean with pressurized
air cleaning device. There is available a flexible installation stand which
is adjustable. The field housing is classified to IP54.
Applications
VISI5000 application areas
are edge position, centerline and/or width measurement of paper web, metal,
steel (hot or cold), rubber and other strip production lines.
