Line Scan Cameras from JAI


Line scan cameras from JAI include cameras with multi-sensor colour prism technology, trilinear colour technology, as well as monochrome line scan cameras.


Prism-based color line scan: The new JAI multispectral (R-G-B-NIR) line scan camera (Sweep+ SW- 8000Q-10GE) is equipped with four 8K CMOS sensors mounted on a four- way dichroic prism that separates the incoming light into red, green, blue, and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths providing both high colour accuracy and multispectral analysis via the NIR channel.

the performance of the car or the safety of its passengers. Te global carbon fibre


market is projected to grow from $4.7bn last year to $13.3bn by 2029, according to a Markets and Markets report. Companies making carbon


fibre materials are confronted with several challenges. As well as complying with the safety requirements of the aviation industry, they must increase production of carbon fibre with specific properties such as stiffness and strength, while maintaining quality. Another challenge is


Trilinear colour line scan: The Sweep SW-4000TL- 10GE trilinear camera (with 3 x 4,096 pixels) delivers outstanding colour line scan performance for applications that do not require the ultimate colour precision provided by the prism technology in JAI’s Sweep+ series.


Monochrome line scan: The Sweep SW-8000M- PMCL model features an 8,192-pixel linear CMOS sensor delivering a line rate of 100kHz. 4,096-pixel models can run at 200 kHz.

Gocator 2430/40/50 with Blue Laser


Gocator 2430/40/50 line profilers provide high- speed, high-resolution 3D scanning of challenging surfaces. As the latest addition to LMI’s popular 2400 series, these blue laser models are designed for 3D scanning of shiny metal surfaces in electric vehicle (EV) battery inspection, rail inspection (rail geometry), small to medium-size electronic and automotive parts, and general factory automation applications. Due to its shorter


wavelength, blue laser light performs better than


red or green lasers when scanning specular surfaces. For example, Gocator 2450 blue laser sensors are able to deliver high-quality 3D scan data of train rails even in full sunlight, and when the track ballast is wet. Gocator 2430/40/50 models feature the latest 2-megapixel imaging technology, custom- embedded processor, and optimised optics that allow for fast inspection rates (up to 5kHz) and increased sensitivity in handling reflective targets.

to protect the surface. Because deep black


materials absorb significant amounts of light, carbon fibres are difficult to make visible in image processing. Te fibres therefore require special industrial lighting to ensure that a high-contrast image is generated on the sensor. Chromasens Corona II LED lights provide up to 3,500,000 lux illumination, along with a technology that focuses the LEDs by using elliptical reflectors instead of lenses. Defects are made visible approximately up to the level


of filament (10µm), so that even the smallest anomalies can be identified. Fraunhofer-developed


software featuring defect detection and pixel-based localisation is currently being used for carbon fibre production in the system. Te adjacent processes, PAN spinning and fibre spreading, were learned by the system with little data. Te aim is now to test the software with various parameters and to install it in production conditions at SGL Carbon’s manufacturing site.
