A variety of different lighting methods ensure stable,
clear images suited to the kind of inspection required.
The adoption of a dome shape means that the influence
of external interference is reduced, and inspection of
flaws can be performed. The combined use of both red
and green light enables inspection of a wide range of
workpieces.
The brightness and the lighting direction can be changed.
Coaxial vertical lighting is possible with the F150-SLC20.

4Lighting Controlled from Menus
The illuminated area and light intensity can be controlled
from Controller Menus.Settings can be easily changed
without the need for direct contact with the light source.
Lighting positioning is stored along with other scene data.
This means that lighting conditions can be easily
changed to match different types of workpiece.
The Controller handles lighting settings as numeric data
ensuring that lighting conditions are recreated with a
high degree of accuracy.

AVariety of Images
Images can be taken simultaneously with two cameras.
In addition to being able to set the order in which the cameras take images, it is also possible to combine
the images taken by the two cameras at the same time to obtain one image.

Filter the image for optimum measurement using
smoothing, edge enhancement, edge extraction, and
background suppression functions.
Perform filtering in real time (i.e., while inputting
images).
●Measure position in sub-pixels (smaller than a pixel)
using 256-gradation gray search processing. Use this
function in applications requiring highly accurate
positioning.

Compact Camera with high resolution.
Uses full image readout and directional lattice-type
CCD elements to produce clear, detailed images for
efficient processing.
Built-in electronic shutter makes the F150 ideal for
high-speed production lines.
Using the F150's menus, shutter speeds can be set
according to measurement conditions (scenes).
Select the speed appropriate to the production-line
speed and object.
●
●
Measure the position of edges with a high degree of
accuracy (using sub-pixels). Ideal for inspecting widths
or dimensions.
The F150 is also equipped with edge count and pitch
functions. Ideal for IC and connector lead detection.
●
●
A variety of data operations (expressions) can be
selected from the F150's menus. These include finding
minimum and maximum values, calculating distances
between points, and obtaining angles between lines.
Set a maximum of 24 expressions, and perform
judgement and data output based on the results.
●
●
Detect external damage such as splinters, scratches,
and dirt quickly and accurately using an algorithm
devised by OMRON.
Set the F150 to inspect for defects along lines, around
circumferences, or inside boxes.
