Baumer has expanded its LX series lineup with eight new models that combine advanced Sony Pregius sensors and a 10 GigE interface to deliver exceptional image quality at high speeds while simplifying system integration.

The latest additions feature global shutter LXT cameras with resolutions ranging from 3 to 12 megapixels. These cameras stand out for their superior image quality, a wide dynamic range of 71 dB, and frame rates up to 216 fps. Their ability to capture fine details in high-speed applications makes them ideal for reliable image analysis across various industries.

Key Features

  • High-Speed Performance: Thanks to exposure times down to 1 µs, these cameras are optimized for light-intensive tasks such as laser welding and fast-motion pick-and-place operations.

  • Advanced Connectivity: The cameras feature a 10 GigE interface that enables rapid image transmission with reduced processing delays. This design ensures data transfer speeds ten times faster than standard GigE and thirty-five percent quicker than Camera Link Full, supporting high-bandwidth operation at up to 1.1 GB/s.

  • Reliability in Harsh Conditions: With an IP65/67 rating for water and dust resistance, along with M12 connectors, these cameras are built to withstand challenging environments like outdoor inspections under overhead power lines.

  • Flexible Integration: The optional modular tube system allows users to adapt the camera body using variable extension rings. This feature streamlines integration without additional protective enclosures, enhancing flexibility in lens compatibility.

  • Energy-Efficient Control: Four opto-coupled outputs with pulse width modulation and up to 120W power (48V/2.5A) allow direct control of external lighting systems, eliminating the need for separate controllers often used in complex tasks like shape-from-shading inspections.

Broader Applications

Now featuring a total of thirty-six models supporting multiple interfaces including Dual GigE Vision and Camera Link alongside 10 GigE standards, along with advanced CMOS sensors from Sony Pregius partners ams, ON Semiconductor, and Sony, these cameras cater to high-resolution demands up to 48 megapixels. Their performance levels reach up to 337 fps—making them the perfect solution for demanding imaging tasks requiring both precision and speed.

Summary

With a focus on seamless integration, robust operation in extreme conditions, and rapid data transfer capabilities, Baumer’s LX series represents an ideal choice for high-throughput inspection applications.
