Building a whole system?

The configurator starts from a camera and lists only the parts that fit it, step by step: camera, lens, light, light controller, PC, trigger sensor and cables. Buy the parts in one cart or send the system for one quote.

How to choose cameras

Area scan or line scan?

Area-scan cameras take a whole frame at once and suit parts that stop or move slowly. Line-scan cameras build the image one line at a time and suit continuous web, rollers and fast conveyors.

Which interface?

GigE runs long cables (up to 100 m) and powers the camera over PoE on many models. USB3 is simple and fast over short runs. 10GigE and CoaXPress carry high resolutions at high frame rates; CoaXPress needs a frame grabber in the PC.

Global or rolling shutter?

A global shutter exposes every pixel at once, so moving parts are not skewed. A rolling shutter is fine for stationary parts and usually costs less.

How much resolution?

Divide the field of view by the smallest feature you must see; allow at least 3 to 4 pixels across that feature.
