From inspection to identification, barcode reading to robotic guidance, measurement to color analysis, Festo provides machine vision systems designed to suit your needs. With higher resolutions, more powerful software tools, easier integration, and greater flexibility, the latest generation of SBS machine vision sensors provides the right features and tools to meet your demanding machine vision requirements.
High Resolution
A 5-megapixel sensor within our machine vision systems delivers high-resolution images for applications that require precision measurement and the detection of small details. Auto-focus and auto-exposure make finding the perfect image simple. For applications requiring lower resolutions, 1.5-megapixel and 0.5-megapixel sensors are also available.
Powerful Software Tools
The SBS Vision Sensor software provides easy access to all cameras on the network and powerful configuration tools to solve every machine vision task. For applications ranging from inspection and identification to measurement and color analysis, SBS machine vision sensors can detect it easily and accurately. This powerful imaging capability is integrated directly into the sensor, meaning no separate control unit or valuable space in the cabinet is required.
Easy Integration
All SBS machine vision sensors come in the same mechanical housing, featuring a consistent dovetail mount and electrical connections, making them easy to integrate anywhere on the factory floor. Seamless integration into automation systems, such as PLCs and robotic controllers, is supported via digital I/O signals and robust Ethernet communications.
Maximum Flexibility
Machine vision systems from Festo offer maximum flexibility. SBSA machine vision sensors come with integrated lens and lighting. Multiple focal lengths provide wide, medium, and narrow fields of view. Eight integrated LEDs in red, white, or near-infrared provide the right illumination every time. SBSX machine vision sensors provide C mounts for use with interchangeable lenses, telecentric, and custom lenses. Electrical connections for controlling external surface and ring lights ensure accurate triggers for perfectly illuminated images, making these components essential in manufacturing and automation processes.
