January 27, 2011
Banner Engineering's image sensor hasenhanced recognition, communication and rapid changeover capabilities. It cansave up to 30 inspections and the new iVu Plus TG sensor monitors labels, partsand packaging for type, size, orientation, shape and location. Its color touch-screen display and on-board memory allow fast and easyinstallation and application setup without connection to a PC. Ethernetcommunication is compatible with most industrial systems.
The iVu Plus TGhas a Sort sensor that can recognize up to ten different patterns within thesame inspection. Applications for this new capability include identifying partson a production line and ensuring that all required parts are present in apackage. Other functions included in the unit are:
Area sensor to ensure that some features are present on a part.
Blemish sensor to detect flaws such as scratches or color variation.
Match sensor to verify that a pattern, shape or part is identical to a reference.
Ease of use issupported by integrated lighting, adjustable focus lenses, automatic exposurecontrol and high speed processing. The sensor's housing is rated to IP67 foruse in harsh environments. Industry applicationsinclude packaging, material handling, robotics, assembly, automotive, food processing, pharmaceutical, electronics, metalworking andplastics.
