New Vision-Guided Robotics With Improved Stability
Optimal image creation with vision-guided robotics.
- Bright, uniform illumination even over a wide field of view
- Support for multiple pallets and tooling changeover
- Optimal hardware for on-hand and fixed mount picking
2D vision-guided robotics hardware from KEYENCE has become the global standard when equipping robots for pick & place and grip correction applications. A simplified robot vision interface paired with KEYENCE provided robot programs allows for seamless connection to all major robot manufacturers, including one-click auto-calibration. With industry leading imaging technology and highly-accurate pattern detection tools, these systems are well suited to solve any 2D guidance application.
Features
Bright, Uniform Illumination Even Over a Wide Field of View
With a wider field of view, brightness can be uneven with a noticeable difference in intensity between the center and the edges of the screen.
Advanced imaging technologies such as overdrive lighting with high intensity smart ring illumination and HDR capturing help to minimize such differences even with a wide field of view.
Before
After
Support for Multiple Pallets and Tooling Changeover
ZoomTrax automatically changes the field of view to suit the size of the target, and automatic focusing makes it possible to handle pallets with different heights, allowing for usability in a wide variety of production environments without changing lenses.
Optimal Hardware for On-Hand Picking
A wider range of on-hand applications is possible thanks to on-robot PoE connectivity, IP67 environmental resistance, and a lightweight C-mount design.
-
1Connects to internal wiring, which prevents cable breakage
-
2Robust IP67 enclosure rating
-
3Lightweight C-mount design option
Outstanding Compatibility With a Wide Variety of Robot Manufacturers
Support for a Wide Variety of Robot Manufacturers
Directly connect to standard robot controllers by selecting the manufacturer name from a list of common robot manufacturers. Take advantage of a single interface for setting up vision-guided robotics even when using different robots for different processes.
