Linescan Cameras for Machine Vision Systems

Alrad Imaging has extended its range of Aviiva EM series of linescan cameras from E2V, which now incorporate high-performance sensors for demanding inspection applications. All models in the Aviiva EM series of linescan cameras feature the improved back-thinned sensor design, which is said to offer better sensitivity and spectral response. Through this sensor, the cameras offer an improvement in maximum data rate and can now run at 40MHz per tap, therefore, up to 160MHz for a four-tap camera.

E2V designs and manufactures the linescan Aviiva, Diviina and Eliixa camera ranges. There are three cameras in the Aviiva EM series range. Aviiva EM1 is suitable for applications requiring ease of use, high functionality, low system cost and a Gigabit Ethernet interface, combined with high electro optical and line rate performances. The Aviiva EM2 is designed to be the best choice for mid-range applications, with resolutions from 500 to 4,000 pixels. The high-performance electronics and CCD design provide excellent results in terms of image quality and signal-to-noise ratio, according to the company.

Coupled with features such as automatic flat field correction, look-up table and automatic tap balance, the EM2 is suitable for demanding inspection applications. The EM2 uses Cameralink interface. The Aviiva EM4 offers resolutions of up to 4,096 pixels. Its built-in features, including automatic FCC, LUT and ATB, mean it can be used for high-demanding machine vision applications. The Cameralink interface is also used on this camera.

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin...

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa...

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
