To meet the increasingly complex needs of 3D inspection, Cognex has developed the 3D-L4000 with a patented speckle-free blue laser optical component that makes setting up 3D vision tools as easy as 2D vision tools. In addition to the 3D-L4000, the first version of In-Sight, Cognex recently announced the 3D-L4000 with VisionPro support, and today we will focus on the functional benefits of the 3D-L4000 with VisionPro support.
The VisionPro-enabled 3D-L4000 combines laser triangulation with advanced imaging technology to capture and create higher-quality, more detailed 3D renderings of the inspected part. The familiar VisionPro is easy to set up, and with an intuitive software interface, you can get started quickly and deploy applications with ease. The new 3D-L4000 with VisionPro is the perfect combination of reliability and flexibility.
First of all, the 3D-L4000 with VisionPro 3D laser displacement sensor is also capable of high-speed, high-resolution 3D inspection of products to optimize product quality. It utilizes advanced imaging mechanisms to generate detailed renderings of the inspected part, from which users can measure 3D features, including length, width, height, inclination, and volume relative to any surface. The system also creates contrast (independent of color) based on height variations, simplifying challenging OCR and presence/absence detection applications.
And, its rugged IP-65 rated design can be used to operate in the harshest factory environments, and its compact form factor makes it easy to fit into any production line. As a result, manufacturers of all sizes are offered:
A versatile solution for automating 2D and 3D vision tasks
Comprehensive factory calibration for simplified deployment
Independent contrast inspection to improve detection capabilities
With industry-proven vision software and a powerful 3D toolset, it solves a range of inspection, identification, measurement, and calibration tasks. And it has the following three advantages:
1. Optimize the imaging effect in the real environment
The VisionPro-enabled 3D-L4000 system features Cognex's patented, spot-free blue laser optics, enabling the system to acquire higher quality images than traditional laser displacement sensors. This type of laser optics significantly reduces the speckle and glare problems common with 3D laser systems.
2. Accelerate factory integration with advanced calibration
The 3D-L4000 with VisionPro is factory calibrated to provide real-world measurements with micron-level accuracy, simplifying application configuration and providing more accurate inspection results.
The innovative on-site calibration technology maintains accuracy, even with loose mechanical configurations, and simply corrects installation and motion errors. On-site calibration also enables the simultaneous use of multiple sensors on a variety of production lines, producing a single, high-resolution 3D image.
3. Simplify application development without sacrificing functionality
The 3D-L4000 with VisionPro uses a PC-based development environment to quickly configure jobs with extensive tool prototyping and an intuitive interface. The easy-to-use QuickBuild graphical development interface enables users to intuitively define and adjust their applications. Modular toolblocks enable developers to create and reuse components, further simplifying setup and reducing cycle times. VisionPro also offers advanced scripting and .NET C# programming options for more flexibility in building custom applications.
Regardless of the version of the 3D-L4000, you can solve a wide range of inspection problems quickly, accurately, and cost-effectively, so you can choose the right product according to the different inspection width and accuracy needs of your industry.
