OEM Automatic stocks entire range of Basler intelligent lighting solutions
As any Instagram user will tell you, lighting makes all the difference to images. For machine vision applications, Basler has certainly got that covered and OEM Automatic is delighted to be stocking the whole new lighting range.
Basler’s new camera light range brings together its high-quality lighting equipment with its popular ace U and L camera models. It’s a perfect match which significantly reduces any of the complexity associated with a vision system.
Users will have a simpler image processing system and the best possible repeatable image quality. Any user can integrate the lighting early and easily. This close integration of camera and light rests on the Basler SLP feature which enables direct communication between the two. It makes the entire process simpler and shorter, allowing easy synchronisation between camera and lighting, and giving non-expert users easy access to the popular strobe mode (which provides more light and a longer LED lifetime). It also simplifies the setup for vision applications.
Plug and play set-up means that it’s straightforward for users to choose an easy approach for quick results. Or they can choose a more flexible approach, suitable for those customers with lighting experience who have applications with specific lighting requirements. Lighting can be easily operated in different modes such as continuous, strobe or overdrive.
Both camera and lighting share the same software interface, the Basler pylon Camera Software Suite, which makes installation and operation easy. “Basler’s new range is fantastic,’ says Gareth Ford, business area manager for OEM Automatic’s machine vision and code reading team. “The plug and play set-up and its low operating costs make it very user-friendly and cost-efficient. OEM Automatic is a strategic partner of Basler and we’re very pleased to be supplying its whole range in the UK.”
