Verisens vision sensors

October 2009 Sensors & Transducers

The new series 1800 Verisens vision sensors allow barcodes, matrix codes and printed characters to be read automatically. By supporting all common 1D and 2D codes, including EAN, UPC and ECC200, the Series 1800 guarantees flexibility for identification and inspection tasks. In addition, information on the quality of printed codes can be used to improve the labelling process.

The sensors come equipped with an integrated optical character recognition (OCR) function that permits the reading of any character or numeric sequence without time-consuming font training. Thus, applications like identifying incorrect serial numbers or expired product dates are easily solved.

The identification functions of the series 1800, together with the enhanced functionality for the control of position, location, presence and completeness allow a wide range of applications, eg, packaging industry or handling, where parts must be properly identified and inspected in any conceivable location and position.

The 1800 series is based on the Baumer FEX contour processor and offers processing safety and performance of up to 50 images per second. The Verisens sensor is easily integrated into the process and makes use of available interfaces such as the Ethernet, USB, RS485 and digital I/O.
