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 characteristics
  • 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, FTP and also 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 IVS 1048i / DCR 1048i image processing sensors provide a high degree of flexibility in terms of reading distance, field of vision, resolution and depth of field.

Application

IVS 1048i: Quality check during labeling process

Requirement:
On a packaging line, a label is to be affixed to the primary packaging. The label must be attached correctly before the product is inserted into the secondary packaging.

Solution:
With its variable field of vision and large operating range, the new IVS 1048i can easily locate and measure the label and check whether or not it has been attached correctly.

IVS 1048i: Adhesive detection during the sealing of secondary packaging

Requirement:
If adhesive is used for sealing secondary packaging, it must be ensured that the adhesive has been applied correctly before the carton is sealed.

Solution:
The IVS 1048i can detect and count the adhesive beads or measure their length and is therefore ideally suited for such applications.

IVS 1048i: Quality check during sealing in beverage filling processes

Requirement:
In a beverage filling system, it must be checked whether the bottle caps are seated correctly.

Solution:
With its extensive tool set, the new IVS 1048i Simple Vision sensor can determine whether the bottle cap is sealed correctly.

DCR 1048i: 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 insertion as a pack of 5 into a carton. During the process, the codes are to be identified simultaneously with a single scan irrespective of the code type. 

Solution:
The new DCR 1048i can read either single 1D and 2D-codes or any number of 1D and 2D-codes simultaneously without problem by means of multicode decoding.

DCR 1048i: 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 1048i DPM Simple Vision sensor has an optimized reading algorithm which is specially designed for decoding codes that are printed directly on packaging.

DCR 1048i: Code reading for detecting the alignment of bags on conveyor lines

Requirement:
On bagged products, a code is printed on the rear side of the packaging. This code is to be used to check that all bagged products are aligned correctly before they are automatically packed into a carton.

Solution:
The DCR 1048i can identify the codes to check whether or not the bagged product is aligned correctly. Alternatively, pattern detection can also be used to detect the correct alignment of the bagged products.
