Construction and The LumiTraxTM lights are constructed with 8 light Imaging examples using the LumiTraxTM function
imaging examples segments. Depending on the LumiTraxTM settings,
4 or 8 segments are emitted individually during the Chip inspection on a metal surface
image capturing process. When used for standard
lighting, all segments can be emitted
simultaneously for high-intensity lighting.

Factors such as remaining cleaning agent, dirt, and hairline


fractures are cancelled so that only deep defects such as
scratches and chips are detected.

High-intensity LED lights designed for use with line scan cameras

Emits stable light intensity in a concentrated line


By using lenses to concentrate high-intensity LED illumination, we have created lights that can support high-speed lines.

Technical Guide

Line scan camera Processing was performed on the image


Area scan camera of the workpiece captured as a surface,
application examples but it was not possible to obtain the
optimal image due to the influence of
the curved parts.

An image is obtained for each line, and


Line scan camera then processing is performed on an
image developed from all the obtained
line images. Because images are
captured under the same conditions,
halation does not occur on curved parts.

Wavelength Conversion Sheet


Making possible inspections with back lights in locations where it was difficult to install back lights

Making it possible to use back lights in locations where it was only possible to install reflected lights.
Some inspections are normally stabilised through the use of back lights. However there are situations where back lights cannot be
installed, possibly due to a lack of installation space or an inability to wire around moving parts. In these cases, back lights can be
emulated by attaching a wavelength conversion sheet and installing blue reflected lights.

Industry’s first

Wavelength conversion sheet features

mechanism lighting technique that can be used to realise back light images with reflected light.

Application
Alignment
It’s difficult to route cables when embedding light in a moving stage, but there are times when the contrast with just reflected light is insufficient.
By using the wavelength conversion sheet, it’s possible to realise back light images without any wiring, which makes stable detections possible.

Using only blue reflected light Using the wavelength conversion sheet

The contrast for the alignment mark is insufficient, The contrast obtained is equivalent to that of images
so stable detection is not possible. captured with back lights, which improves the
alignment precision.

Liquid surface inspection


Assume that there is no space to install a back light when performing liquid surface inspections at a filling machine, so a front light has to be
used instead. Even if the light is installed in a narrow space, back light images can be realised by wrapping the wavelength conversion sheet
around the rotating object.

Using only blue reflected light Using the wavelength conversion sheet

Due to the effect of the reflection from the workpiece Only the liquid surface is clearly imaged as a back
surface, it is not possible to obtain a stable view of light image, which makes it possible to perform
the liquid surface. stable liquid surface inspections.

There may be foreign substances on the surface of the wavelength conversion sheet. However, even if such substances are present, the product is still within the inspection
standards, and these substances do not indicate that the product is defective.

• In environments with low or high temperatures, the adhesive strength and the maintenance of adhesion decrease, which makes it easy for the sheet
to peel off.
• The sheet’s adhesive capability and capability to be peeled off repeatedly may be affected by the shape of the object that the sheet is affixed to as
well as by the usage environment and conditions.
Also, if there are concerns regarding the sheet being peeled off or becoming dirty, the sheet can be used with a cover made of glass, acrylic,
or a similar material in place over top of it. In this situation, the brightness may be slightly attenuated due to the glass or other material.
• If the surface is dirty, wipe it clean with a soft cloth to which a neutral cleaning solution with no abrasive has been applied.
• Scissors or a box cutter can be used to cut the sheet to a different size.

CA-DX Series

Coaxial Lights (Vertical)


Coaxial vertical illumination emits light on the same axis as the camera and lens.

This illumination style provides high contrast, because only specular-reflection light is reflected back to the
camera, while diffuse light from a recess or edge is not.
These lights are effective when inspecting mirror surfaces and glossy surfaces and when distinguishing between objects according to
differences in glossiness.

Light features and settings

Spot Lights
LED spot lights save space and provide lighting to a specified point/area.

When spot illumination is used in combination with the coaxial macro lens, coaxial illumination of a target can
be achieved at high magnification.
Not only can these lights be used in combination with coaxial macro lenses as ultra-compact spot lights but they can also be used in
combination with C-mount lens adapters as lights for long WD applications in sites where the lighting must be kept at a distance from
the target.

Light features and settings

Application Alignment of a glass plate


Using the CA-DP spot light in combination with the macro lens
enables clear detection of scribed registration marks for
consistent alignment.

The square lights are made up of four bars lights, which can be individually controlled and positioned.

Illumination of a target can be freely controlled by changing the alignment and choosing which sides of the target
should be lit.
These units are made of lights in four directions whose alignments, light intensities, and lighting timings can be set separately, which
makes it possible to perform previously difficult inspections.

Illumination wavelength characteristics

To enhance target features the scatter ratio of the light can be used to good effect. Due to Non-visible Visible Non-visible
blue’s short wavelength its scattering ratio is high unlike red light. Hence blue lighting can
enhance scratches and surface flaws that may not be shown with red lighting.

Being able to keep the light off when not required can significantly increase the service life of the light. One advantage Service life vs relative intensity comparison for
to using LED illumination in machine vision is that high frequency ON/OFF switching does not result in damage to the strobe & continuous lighting

Special optical design and The CA-LHR Series provides a resolving power of 200 cycles/mm at the centre of the lens and
construction 140 cycles/mm on the periphery of the lens, which is twice or higher the performance of conventional
high-resolution lenses. This makes it possible to obtain high-contrast images and perform stable
inspections of the dimensions and appearance of targets.
Resolution at centre
Using an aspherical lens, floating structure
and low-dispersion glass, the CA-LHR Series
can reduce image aberration to a minimum.

Minimum working distance When compared to standard lenses the CA-LH Series has a significantly reduced minimum working
distance. This means that one lens can easily accommodate for a range of different target heights without
the need for close up rings or troublesome change overs.

Lowest distortion With an original optical design, the CA-LH Series drastically
in its class eliminates distortion. This is of great significance when using Comparison
machine vision for dimensional measurement or other of distortion
applications that need high precision and performance.
Distortion is reduced to 0.01% or less.*

standard lenses. Even targets with low contrast differences can be
resolved effectively without components being blended together. Standard Lens CA-LH

Environmentally resistant models
Environmentally resistant models of this series offer the lowest distortion in its class. All thumb screws have been eliminated, so there is
no concerns with lenses becoming unfocused due to vibration or lost screws.

* Enclosure rating IP64 applies when connected to the environmentally resistant cameras (CA-H Series or CA Series). For details, see the instruction manual supplied with the lens or environmentally resistant camera.

Distortion-Free, VPR-Equipped, Telecentric Macro Lens


High-performance telecentric macro lens supporting 2/3" images and 5 megapixels

One of the ideal forms of telecentric macro lenses


The distortion-free performance of this lens and its VPR (Variable Pixel Resolution) mechanism make it easy to capture ideal images.

VPR equipped With conventional telecentric macro lenses, the selections were limited and depended on the characteristic
optical magnifications of the lenses. The VPR (Variable Pixel Resolution) mechanism not only makes it
possible to select lenses intuitively according to the pixel resolution but also brings a level of freedom to
the range over which optical magnification can be adjusted.
* These lenses are designed with optical magnification to match 5 megapixels (3.45 μm/pixel) and 2 megapixels (4.4 μm/pixel).

Distortion free All models have a TV distortion of 0.02% or lower. This reduces distortion to
0.25 pixels or less over the entire image even for a 5 megapixel camera. These
lenses are the perfect choice for a wide range of applications from dimension
measurement to alignment.

The entire screen is free of distortion, and


high-resolution images can be obtained.

Ultra high-resolution These lenses have been designed with consistently high resolution not only in the centre of the image but
design on its periphery as well. Even with a unit cell size of 3.45 μm/pixel, every part of the screen exhibits high
resolution and contrast.

CA-LMHR CA-LM

Even for the most detailed part of the chart, sufficient contrast Because the resolution is insufficient, the contrast is extremely
between the white and black lines is obtained. low, which makes it impossible to sufficiently recognise the edges.

Polarising filter Polarisation principle
Light (1) is polarised with polarising filter A so only horizontal light (2) is transmitted to
the target. Because polarising filter B is set to accept vertical light only, the specular
light (3) reflected from the film surface is rejected. However, the diffuse reflected light
(4) from the target has a vertical component (5) that is allowed to pass through B to
the camera.

Blue cut filter • ‌The protective filter ensures a long service life of the lens by preventing damage
during lens maintenance.
• ‌During lens maintenance, all that needs to be done is replace the protective filter,
which can be washed with water.
• ‌The protective filter protects the lens surface from damage caused by processed
chips.
• ‌The protective filter eliminates the time and effort that is required to perform
maintenance on the lens when oil mist or dust affixes to its surface.

Blue cut filter


The blue cut filter blocks the wavelength of blue LED light. Use this filter in
combination with the wavelength conversion sheet to cut the excess blue LED light
components that shine on the workpiece.

* This is a simplified diagram. 45 mm

WD (working distance) and FOV (field of view) are determined by the lens focal distance
and the cameras image sensor size. When WD is outside the range where close up rings
are required, the following proportional expression can be used for WD and FOV.
Example: For a 45 mm FOV at a lens focal distance of 16 mm and with an image

relationship between WD and FOV for different lenses with different focal specifications (3.5 mm,

these lines. In a range where the WD is outside of the lenses normal specification close up rings can

 orking distances and fields of view other than those shown in the
field of view graph are determined according to the proportional
relationship shown within the field of view graph. Also, the
resolution is reduced in the range in which close-up rings are used.

Macro lens selection

The field of view that is actually imaged is determined according to the optical magnification written on the macro lens and the size of the image sensor used.

For example, let us consider KEYENCE 5 megapixel and 2 megapixel cameras.


Camera (CA-H500C) Camera (CA-H200C)

4.99 megapixels, 2432 (H) × 2050 (V) 1.92 megapixels, 1600 (H) × 1200 (V)

The size of the image sensor can be determined by multiplying


the unit cell size and the number of pixels. Using a lens with an optical magnification of ×1 or ×4 gives the following fields of view.

With a ×1 lens, the image sensor size equals the field of view. With a ×4 lens, the field of view is 1/4 the image sensor size.

Compatible image size Resolution

The maximum compatible image size is written on each lens. Check that the image The resolving power is prescribed for each lens. Generally speaking, for cameras with
sensor size used is less than or equal to the compatible image size. It is not a problem high pixel counts, the unit cell size (the size of a single pixel) is small, which means
if the compatible image size is greater than the image sensor size. that lenses with high resolution are required.
If the compatible image size is less than the image sensor size, vignetting, in which
the periphery of the image is dark, may occur.

The “F” of F-stop comes from the word “focal.” lenses that transmit a small amount of light are expressed as being “dark.”
The relationship between the focal distance of a lens and the diameter of its entrance
pupil—that is, the F-stop—is one of the major factors that determines whether a lens is
bright or dark. “Bright lenses” are those with small F-stop values, and “dark lenses” are

Distortion

Typical machine vision distortion means there is a ratio of difference between the
centre and outer points of a captured image. Due to aberrations the level of distortion Barrel h
distortion
gets greater the further you are from the centre of the image. There are two types of
distortions: “barrel” (negative ratio) and “pincushion” (positive ratio). As the absolute h
value of distortion decreases, the more precise, or flat, the images becomes.
