Vision sensors are the „eyes of industrial automation“. This is because the devices enable machines to see and interpret their surroundings. Anyone looking for a particularly powerful sensor for print quality verification will now find what they are looking for in the DCR 1048i OCV from Sensor People by Leuze. The company has added another functionality to its Simple Vision portfolio.
The sensor can read both 1-D and 2-D codes within an application and also check the quality of a print using the OCV method. This makes it possible to reliably determine whether the best-before date, batch or other printed information is present, are complete and legible.
OCV stands for „Optical Character Verification“. For print quality verification via OCV, users can teach the vision sensor simply, quickly and without complex parameters. All that is required is a Reference image of the optimum imprint to be submitted. The DCR 1048i OCV then reliably recognises faulty prints: for example, clogged print heads, used ink or adhesion problems. The threshold value can be set. Products recognised as defective can then be ejected. This sensor is therefore ideal for system operators as a Efficient and flexible solution for the production process.
In the field of image processing for industrial automation Sensor technology Performance, flexibility and usability. Simple vision sensors fulfil these requirements. They are as easy to operate as optical sensors and are also just as powerful as camera systems. With this concept, the Sensor People from Leuze offer a quick and uncomplicated introduction to vision technology.
