Low cost small diameter industrial endoscope
The LightScope mini from Moritex is a low cost, small diameter industrial endoscope for remote viewing of inaccessible structures where space is at a premium.
Light sources, LED illumination and fibre guides
An informative new 96-page technical catalogue is now available from Moritex describing its comprehensive range of light sources, LED illumination and fibre light guides.
In applications where there is little space above the object - Moritex's side looking prism adapters enable the optical axis to be turned through 90 degrees overcoming the space limitations.
To enable narrow pitch marks within a small area to be recognised (mark recognition) a range of optical axis pitch conversion prisms are available to decrease the pitch between two MML lenses.
New prism adapters are available that provide two optical views with different focusing.
Standard prism adapters are available for 16mm, 18mm, 25mm, 35mm and 37.5mm diameter lenses.
Moritex can also supply custom designed prism adapter units, with adjusting CCD cameras and optical unit positions.
Moritex MML's are ultra compact, low mass lenses that are recognised as a high performance benchmark for applications including machine vision alignment, image gauging and surface inspection.
Moritex MML's are telecentric lenses, which maintain a constant view angle to the subject.
This is achieved by keeping the optical ray paths parallel to each other.
Lens telecentricity is crucial in machine vision applications such as alignment or gauging where view angle and magnification errors need to be minimised.
