Sierra-Olympic Introduces Cox CX320 Thermography Camera System

The camera has Ethernet data out, and comes complete with a thermography analysis package for Windows XP/7/8 machines.

July 54, 2015 - Hood River, OR - Sierra-Olympic Technologies introduces the Cox CX320 Thermography Camera, an uncooled LWIR camera system for machine vision, process monitoring, and benchtop R&D applications. The CX320 includes an uncooled 384 x 288 sensor with 25 µm pixels, and radiometric calibration from -20ºC to +650ºC over two imaging ranges. The camera has Ethernet data out, and comes complete with a thermography analysis package for Windows XP/7/8 machines. This combination makes the camera/software package well suited for benchtop thermographic analysis applications in education, government, and industry.


The product also has on-board thermography capabilities with on-screen display of temperature data points output on its NTSC/PAL analog video signal. One implements a different camera set-up software tool with communications to the camera via either RS-485 or Ethernet, and the camera displays temperature information of up to 10 spots on the analog monitor. Additionally, two regions of interest (ROIs) can be configured with high/low/mean temperature thresholds, and send hardware alarms to I/O lines on the camera. This allows the camera to be used for continuous monitoring applications in industrial applications. When housed against weather elements, the camera can be used for continuous monitoring of critical components in power transmission and distribution.

The CX320 cameras can be specified with a variety of lens focal lengths ranging from 8 mm for very wide field-of-view (FOV) applications to 100 mm for narrow FOV, distant scenes. All lenses are F1.0 for maximum sensitivity.

The new cameras come complete with the specified optic, a power supply and all cables, plus all software and documentation. The products are available for purchase online at www.sierraolympic.com, with various lens options, on the shelf, for immediate delivery.

uEye XC AUTOMATICALLY PERFECT IMAGES

Combining the ease of use of a webcam with the performance and reliability of an industrial camera? The uEye XC autofocus camera from IDS Imaging Development Systems proves that this is possible. Its high-resolution imaging, simple setup and adaptability make it an invaluable tool for improving quality control and streamlining workflows in industrial settings - especially for cases where users would normally employ a webcam. The uEye XC autofocus camera features a 13 MP onsemi sensor and supports two different protocols: USB3 Vision, which enables programmability and customization, and UVC (USB Video Class). The UVC functionality enables a single cable connection for easy setup and commissioning, while delivering high-resolution images and video. This makes the uEye XC camera an ideal option for applications that require quick setup and need to manage variable object distances. Additional features such as digital zoom, automatic white balance and color correction ensure precise detail capture, which is essential for quality control.
