3D camera is IP65/67-rated for harsh ambient conditions

With the X30 FA and X36 FA, industrial camera manufacturer IDS is launching two 3D camera systems specifically designed for use in harsh ambient conditions.

All components fulfil the requirements of the IP65/67 protection class and are effectively protected against dirt, dust, water splashes, or cleaning agents. The 3D camera system combines a 100 watt projection module with a Gigabit Ethernet switch and two GigE uEye FA cameras with a 1.3 megapixel CMOS sensor that can be mounted at different distances. In addition to the baseline, the vergence angle and focal distance can also be freely selected, thus allowing the solution to be individually tailored to any 3D-vision requirement.

The Ensenso X series enables 3D capturing of objects with a volume of up to several cubic meters, such as heavily laden pallets. With working distances of 0.5 to 5 meters, the range of applications includes anything from bin picking through to warehouse and logistics automation. Supplied Software Development Kit allows the two 3D camera systems from the Ensenso X series to be easily configured and operated in the familiar way.
