F-10 Gray-Scale Pattern Matching Machine Vision Sensor

The F-10 gray-scale pattern matching machine vision sensor offers rapid inspections for the price of a high-end photoelectric sensor. Because it detects patterns (rather than spots, as photoelectric sensor do), it enables a wider range of applications. Users simply teach the machine to recognize certain patterns by focusing a visible light guide on the object. The user then presses a teach button to register the pattern in the sensor, runs a sample test and adjusts thresholds levels as needed via up or down select button. The machine can either match patterns or detect plain objects or backgrounds. Applications include pattern matching, accurate label placement, printing verification and conformity checks.
