Omron Automation Americas announced the release of a brand-new FHV7-series smart camera featuring the world’s first multi-color light alongside a range of best-in-class image sensors (0.4MP to 5MP, with 12MP coming in the near future). This unique technology is designed to achieve the industry’s highest standards of precision in vision inspections on high-mix production lines.

A brand-new, ultra-powerful smart camera is about to hit the market to help businesses in a wide range of industries streamline their operations.

Omron Automation and Safety has developed a new generation of M18 cylindrical photoelectric sensors that combine simple selection and installation with reliability, versatility, rugged construction and value for money.

The VT-S700 in-line system for soldered component inspection uses a telecentric lens with a two-megapixel camera to reduce image distortion and improve inspection accuracy at the edges of its field of view.

The model ZG 2-D profiling laser sensor completes a height and width inspection in a single pass in milliseconds, capturing entire shapes by measuring the X and Z axes.
