IVC-3D 3D Machine Vision

Brand: Sick AG

The IVC-3D smart camera performs inspection, location, and measurement of objects in order to increase throughput, control production and perform quality control. Applications that once required complicated camera and illumination technology can now easily be completed with the world’s first 3D smart camera. 

The factory-calibrated IVC-3D combines imaging, lighting and analysis into one housing. Using laser triangulation, the IVC-3D can see three dimensions. 

Highlighting surface defects is done during image capture with tools that measure height, volume, and shape independent of contrast and color. As a result, previously difficult measurement tasks are now easily solved. 

The IVC-3D is easily configured via a PC user interface, and has serial and EtherNet/IP interfaces. The IVC-3D needs no PC after configuration.

At a glance
  • Easy 3D measurement – provides information about object height, shape and volume
  • Independent of object contrast and color
  • Easy-to-use graphical user interface for fast application development
  • Simple connection of PLCs, robots, and other control systems, e.g., those using Ethernet/IP or OPC
  • Scans up to 5,000 profiles per second
  • Industrial, rugged metal housing
Features
  • The IVC-3D makes advanced 3D shape inspections easy, enabling cost-efficient solutions
  • Contrast-independent measurement provides greater reliability even at varying object color and when the object color is the same as the background
  • Factory calibrated – instantly providing true metric dimensions at production speed
  • The camera‘s OPC server and EtherNet/IP interface enables simple communication with PLCs, robots and control systems, making integration easy
  • Stand-alone operation – no PC is needed after configuration
