Customer issue

The customer is the world’s leading provider of quality control solutions for the hollow glass industry. One of the aspects of the glass containers’ integrity control  being the dimensional errors’ detection, the client was interested in the use of a linescan camera which would meet several criteria: the speed and the resolution, the integration of a new standardised interface and the product compactness adapted to the customer’s machine.

Our realisation and its advantages 

Thanks to our expertise in the conception, the development and the industrial cameras’ production, we industrialized a linescan camera module:

• custom-made
• ultra-compact
• design and assembly at an effective cost 

With the latest-generation CMOS monochrome sensor of 2048 pixels and the CoaXPress interface, the linescan camera module has key characteristics such as:

• an exceptional quality of image thanks to its large pixels (7μm x 7μm)
• the sensitivity is two to four times higher with the « binning » mode
• a high-speed scanning with a maximum line frequency of 45kHz @10-bit
• an image dynamic from 10 to 12-bit
• a high transmission speed of 3.125Gb/s on several tens of metres with the CoaXPress interface
• power over CoaXPress wire (PoCXP)  which reduces the number of wires used
