Sick IVP has released a new series of the Ranger vision camera's capable of acquiring 20,000 3D profiles per second Each profile contains up to 1536 high quality 3D co-ordinates; that is more than 30 million points per second! Using the latest CameraLink interface, the Ranger C measures 3D features at unmatched speeds and accuracy

The result is detailed height and shape measurement data, critical in applications for profiling, classifying and inspecting products or features in 3D.

The Ranger C MultiScan acquires multiple feature images in grey scale, gloss and laser scatter as well as 3D data simultaneously.

All feature images are captured when the object passes the camera in line scan mode and are sent to the PC via Camera Link.

In both versions all triangulation calculations are completely executed by the Ranger Cameras eliminating the need for expensive post processors.

They are easy to integrate and users can choose to measure individual profiles or build up a 3D plot for processing by your own or standard 3rd party imaging software packages.

The Ranger is already a key component in the measurement and profiling of products in numerous applications in a variety of industries.

Electronic component inspection, connector measurement, tree profiling for cutting, strip steel profiling and Pallet inspection are just a few.

The addition of the CameraLink interface will mean a greater number of 3D problems can be solved by the Sick IVP Ranger C series. Request a free brochure from Lambda Photometrics ...
