DCR 1000i / 1100i
Overview
Camera-based code reader for identification of 1D/2D codes
The DCR 1000i / 1100i series Simple Vision sensors
The Simple Vision sensors of the DCR 1000i / 1100i series are compact, versatile and high-performance devices with image processing functions for identification of 1D/2D codes. A wide variety of models with two different resolutions ensures maximum flexibility.
With powerful image processing tools, easy-to-configure software, interchangeable lenses and integrated high-performance LED illumination, the Simple Vision sensors from Leuze offer outstanding performance and a high level of efficiency.
Highlights
Fast commissioning and versatile applications
Support of common industrial protocols
The Leuze Vision Studio software offers powerful tools and statistics for image processing and inspection that can also be used offline. To reduce costs and save time, the sensors can be set up by the user without special training or specialist knowledge. The Simple Vision sensors can be used for a wide variety of industrial tasks:
- Position checking for controlling handling systems or a tool to correct the travel position
- Identification of a part using markings, its shape or other features
- Checking a part for correct production or correct mounting
- Measurement and counting of parts
- Checking of parts for defects
Common interface protocols such as TCP/IP, PROFINET, EtherNet/IP and also FTP/SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol) are supported. This makes communication and data acquisition easy. Digital inputs and outputs are also provided to allow simple processes to be controlled directly or to enable connection to a PLC.
Exchangeable lenses for flexibility
Thanks to four interchangeable S-Mount lenses with variable focus adjustment and two different apertures, the DCR 1000i / 1100i image processing sensors provide a high degree of flexibility in terms of reading distance, field of vision, resolution and depth of field.
Optical Character Verification (OCV)
Optical Character Recognition (OCR)
The DCR 1000i OCV can read 1D/2D codes within an application and check the print quality of an imprint (best before date, batch, lot, etc.). No complex set-up with many parameters is required. The sensor only needs to be taught a reference image of the imprint. Faulty prints due to clogged print heads, used ink or adhesion problems can be recognized during the ongoing process. The defective products can be ejected at an early stage.
With its integrated OCR function, the DCR 1100i OCR not only reads 1D and 2D codes but also recognizes plain text reliably and accurately. Our sensor’s OCR function increases transparency, traceability and quality assurance in manufacturing, perfect for industries such as automotive, pharmaceutical or packaging technology.
Applications
Simultaneous reading of multiple 1D and 2D codes
Requirement:
A secondary packaging has both a 1D code and a 2D code. For quality assurance purposes, the codes are to be scanned before a pack of 5 is packed into a covering box. During the process, the codes are to be identified simultaneously with a single scan irrespective of the code type.
Solution:
The new DCR 1000i can easily read either individual 1D and 2D codes or any number of 1D and 2D codes simultaneously using multicode decoding.
Reading of codes printed directly on packaging material
Requirement:
A 2D code is printed directly on secondary packaging. The decoding of these so-called DPM codes is essential for the traceability of the products.
Solution:
The DCR 1000i DPM Simple Vision sensor has an optimized reading algorithm which is specially designed for decoding codes that are printed directly on packaging.
Label inspection with print quality verification (OCV)
Requirement:
A code, a best-before date and a batch number is affixed to packaging. The code must be detected and the imprint verified at the same time to ensure that the imprint is present, complete and legible.
Solution:
The DCR 1000i OCV can identify 1D/2D codes at the same time as comparing the imprint with a taught-in reference image and evaluates whether it meets the required quality (adjustable threshold value) or not.
