Keyence CV-X400A/F Intuitive Vision System

The Keyence CV-X400A/F Intuitive Vision System is a high - performance and user-friendly vision system designed for a wide range of industrial inspection applications. Here is an introduction:

System Overview

The CV-X400A/F is part of the CV-X series, which is known for its innovation and ease of use. It incorporates high-speed cameras and advanced lighting technology to provide stable and accurate imaging for in - line part inspection, improving production efficiency and ensuring product quality.

Key Features

Intuitive Operation: The system features an intuitive, icon - driven interface. Through interactive menus, users can set up reliable product inspections with just a few clicks, making it accessible to those without extensive technical knowledge.

High-Quality Imaging: It supports cameras with different pixel resolutions, including 21 - megapixel cameras, enabling high - precision detection of small defects or details on large workpieces. The 21 - megapixel camera can transmit large - size images of 5104 x 4092 pixels at a speed of 110 ms (16 - times - speed), which was previously impossible for traditional systems.

LumiTrax™ Technology: The unique LumiTrax™ tuning function allows users to create optimal images in three easy steps. First, select the inspection type or target; then, select the image with the sharpest features; finally, select the optimal contrast. This enables easy creation of complex images and extraction of relevant features, even for objects with the same color as the background.

3D Inspection Capability: The system supports 3D inspection using height data. It can detect height, area, volume, etc. Additionally, the "height extraction" function can convert 3D data into grayscale images, allowing the use of existing image - processing algorithms to achieve detection that is difficult for area - type cameras.

Versatile Application: It is suitable for various industries such as automotive, electronics, medical, food and packaging. Common applications include defect detection and surface inspection, part presence and feature detection, assembly verification, vision - guided robotics, measurement, and code reading.

System Composition

Controller: The CV-X400A/F controller is the core of the system, responsible for image acquisition, processing, and analysis. It has powerful computing capabilities and can support multiple cameras simultaneously.

Camera Module: A variety of industrial cameras are available, including color and monochrome cameras, with different pixel resolutions and frame rates to meet different detection requirements.

Light Source Module: The system uses advanced lighting technology, such as LumiTrax™ - compatible light sources, to provide stable and uniform lighting, ensuring high - quality image acquisition.

Software Development Environment: It provides rich software tools, including vision system software, programming software, and image analysis software. Users can easily configure and customize the system through the software to meet specific inspection needs.
