Keyence Vision System Adds Line Scan Cameras


Itasca, IL — The XG-8000 Vision System, from the KEYENCE Corporation, adds a new product line of unique line scan camera models, a high-speed triple core processor and multi-camera connectivity. Offering simultaneous operation of up to 8 cameras, ultra-fast processor speed and hardware flexibility, the XG sig- nificantly boosts production and inspection performance over conven- tional vision systems. OEMs, integrators and end-


users, using XG’s integrated develop- ment environment, with flexible hardware, powerful toolset, and intu- itive user interface, can create ideal vision solutions quickly and easily. The need for time and expense of building custom vision systems becomes less necessary. Compatibility issues are elimi-


nated because all hardware comes from the same company. A newly designed Triple Core Processor sig- nificantly increases produc tion/ in - spection throughput over conven- tional vision systems. High-load data processing, from 5 megapixel area scan and 8k line scan cameras (capa- ble of capturing 67 megapixel images), achieves ultra-fast perform- ance through distributed processing across three high-speed cores.


New Binder Connectors Have Dip Solder Contacts


Camarillo, CA — Binder-USA has added 7/8-in. (22.2mm) panel-mount connectors with dip solder contacts to the Series 820 and 870 connector family. With the dip solder contacts the connectors can now be mounted to a PCB board. The connectors are especially well suited for power sup-


• Micro-Spot Welding • Compacting • Splicing • Contact Welding • Resistance Brazing • Terminal Welding


AUTOMATION Visual LED indicators, built


into the company’s line scan cam- eras, display received light intensities and image sharp- ness thus simplifying this nor- mally difficult and time-con- suming setup process. The right camera and illumination settings can be selected easily. A new HMI touch panel


adds another option to the dif- ferent ways a user can inter- face with the XG. Users can now choose from direct hand- held controller operation and remote desktop through the company’s software or VNC viewer, on top of the new HMI touch panel, to control the XG.


With access to the XG in many ways, features like “Online Re-Test” can be


taken advantage of by allowing users to make changes to the program without taking the XG offline. The addition of another indus-


try-first vision tool, the Trace Log function, offers powerful processing and I/O troubleshooting capabilities. Users can check and monitor the sequencing of in-process program units, I/O signals and commands. Processing time for each unit plus other information can be displayed


and saved for reference or future use. Contact: Keyence Corporation of America, 1100 N. Arlington Heights

plies, Fieldbus and Ethernet applica- tions. The new receptacles are avail- able in both male and female ver- sions with 2+PE, 4 and 4+PE gold- plated contacts. Front- and rear- mountable positions allow for the receptacles to be mounted from the back or front of a panel. All versions have UL approval


and an IP67 rating ensures connectors are protected while used in harsh environments. In order to make a com- plete connecting system the recepta- cles will mate with the field-attach- able connectors and cordsets from the


entire Binder 7/8-in. connector family. Contact: Binder-USA, 3903
