Light Sources & Light Source Controllers

Complete portfolio covering area‑light illumination for all standard machine vision applications.

Product Overview

Light Sources & Light Source Controllers

 

Standar Light Sources:

Selection Guidelines:

  • Ring lights – choose by illumination angle: high‑angle for contour, low‑angle for surface texture.
  • Coaxial lights – standard for general use, parallel for high precision, 45° for micro‑defects.
  • Area lights – bottom‑emitting for high brightness, side‑light‑guide for ultra‑thin form factor.
  • Wavelength – UV for fluorescence/transparent scratches, IR for silicon or dark‑plastic penetration.
  • Customization – colors (R/G/B/W/IR/UV) and mechanical dimensions available on request.

Light Source Controllers:

Selection Guidelines:

  • Digital vs. Analog – Digital: RS232 communication, 256‑step precision. Analog: manual via potentiometer or external voltage, fast response, cost‑effective.
  • Constant‑voltage vs. Constant‑current – Constant‑voltage for lights with built‑in current regulation; constant‑current for direct LED drive, more stable intensity, ideal for high‑power applications.
  • Brightness‑Boost (SS‑ACDH) – supports short‑duration high‑intensity strobing synchronized with camera exposure for high‑speed imaging.
  • All models feature over‑current, over‑voltage, and short‑circuit protection; aluminum housing with forced‑air cooling, rated for continuous industrial use.
