3D AOI System with CoaXPress 2.0 Components

For the demanding optical quality control of electronic parts, Basler provides matched components that support the latest CoaXPress 2.0 camera interface (CXP-12). This allows existing 3D AOI systems to be optimized and improved through a streamlined system design, resulting in higher image quality and flow rate of the produced parts.

A possible configuration of the image processing system consists of a CXP-12 head camera (monochrome or color), supplemented by strip light projectors and a frame grabber or interface card, as well as four side cameras. Previously-preferred camera interfaces for the head camera such as Camera Link and CXP 1.1.1 can be replaced with little integration effort and no further cost increases.

In addition to a higher camera resolution (e.g. 16-25 MP), a higher data throughput and a higher frame rate (e.g. 1x CXP-12: 1,200 MB/s; 2x CXP-12: 2,400 MB/s) can be achieved, which leads to significantly better measurement results with very high image quality. For example, we offer corresponding side cameras with USB 3.0 or Camera Link interface with a resolution of 12 MP and a frame rate of 90 fps.

To process image data from the head camera, the FPGA-based CXP-12 interface cards and programmable frame grabbers with 1 to 4 channels are available. These are also offered in combination with the boost camera. All components are compatible with each other and with the lighting and software.
