SVS-Vistek SenSWIR
Efficient & Economical
SWIR Inspection
Combine the potential of SWIR with the simplicity and robustness of conventional image processing. The new SenSWIR cameras allow efficient inspection and reliable quality Control.
One camera for SWIR and standard image
The extended wavelength range of 400-1700 nm allows SWIR images and normal images to be captured almost simultaneously through the same camera. A time-consuming comparison of different viewing angles of SWIR image and VIS image is not necessary.
Low System invest
The SenSWIR sensors offer high resolution with little spatial footprint. The small, very light-sensitive pixel allows a very compact footprint of the camera and enables the use of small, low-cost c mount lenses. The GenTL interface enables rapid application development and significantly reduces system costs.
As simple as a GenICam industrial camera
The SenSWIR EXO series and FXO series cameras are based on the mature industrial design of these industrial camera series with all the features you need. The SVS-Vistek toolkit and the GenTL interface enable quick integration into old and new applications, even with third-party software.
Efficient and elegant inspection
Many materials show typical properties in the SWIR spectrum that allow clear substance identification. The wide wavelength range enables reliable identification and, in combination with the VIS range from the same perspective, simple implementation of the associated actions.
-
Detect moisture
Water has typical characteristics in the SWIR range. Contamination with and from water as well as moisture content of e.g. fruits and vegetables can be identified.
-
Detect foreign substances
Substances often exhibit typical reflection and transmission spectra in the SWIR range. This can be used to detect substance contaminations.
-
Use SWIR transparency
Some materials such as silicon or some polymers are transparent in the SWIR range. This is used, for example, in the inspection of semi-finished products or enables inspection inside closed housings and packaging.
-
Measure temperatures
Hot objects are very bright in the SWIR range. This is used, for example, to estimate the temperature profile of welding seams.
