The integrated 1.3 MP imaging chip also opens up applications for which the standard VGA resolution is insufficient, e.g. detection of several small codes in a large search area. If the full image resolution is not required, the user can instead select between individual image sections and three different software-simulated focal widths (6, 12 and 25 mm). The sensor can therefore be flexibly adjusted to different object sizes and detection ranges, without the need to change the lens or modify the mounting position.
Like the other sensor versions from the SensoPart VISOR® V10 and V20 series, the new code reader is equipped with a compact, heavy-duty housing (IP 67) with integrated image recording, optics, lighting and signal processing. In addition to EthernetIP, the vision sensor also supports the fieldbus standard Profinet. It is downwards compatible with the established VISOR® V10 series, facilitating a simple change-over.
