Machine Vision SWIR Imaging

Machine Vision imaging requires cameras that see tiny defects, operate at fast frame rates, and image with a wide field of view. Industrial machine imaging also requires cameras with the lowest cost per megapixel. Until now, short wavelength infrared machine vision cameras, sensors, and applications have relied on low-resolution InGaAs SWIR camera technology alone.

Acuros® CQD® SWIR cameras are fully GenICam compliant and have demonstrated compliance with common Vision software platforms including Cognex Vision Pro and Matrox.

The Acuros® CQD® SWIR cameras meet this challenge at three distinct price-performance points. Review our product offering and contact SWIR Vision today to discover the best shortwave infrared camera to meet your special requirements.

Meeting Your Industrial Machine Vision Imaging Needs

Acuros CQD SWIR cameras meet the imaging requirements of demanding industrial applications through design. They provide system integrators, vision solution providers, and an array of end users with the flexibility of a programmable frame time, exposure time, gain modes, window modes, binning modes, and more. Designed for multi-tool imaging systems, they can be operated with an internal clock or externally triggered via software or a hardware TTL trigger input.

Machine Vision During EV Battery Production and Inspection

Machine vision is used in electric vehicle (EV) production to check materials for consistency and quality. Machine vision is particularly important during the EV battery production process, helping to ensure anode and cathode alignment. It is a key component of the lithium-ion battery inspection process and  also enables battery particle inspection. Integrating SWIR cameras as part of the production and inspection process, EV manufacturers, as well as EV battery producers, can focus on creating optimal energy density, safety, and cycle life for their products.
