Balluff BVS-E Universal vision sensor

Thursday, 13 March, 2014 | Supplied by: Balluff Pty Ltd


The BVS-E Universal vision sensor from Balluff has integral processing electronics, lighting and two digital outputs. It combines the functions of the BVS-E Advanced and BVS-E Ident vision sensors in the one device.

The sensor can inspect a large number of characteristics in one pass and can also simultaneously perform various tasks such as checking brightness, comparing contrasts, counting edges, checking positions, detecting patterns and reading codes at speed. It also includes tools such as a 360° contour, barcode and data matrix check, as well as the option of counting and checking contours.

The result of the check is issued either as an OK or error signal via the digital outputs or the RS232/Ethernet interface. The position of the detected part can be transmitted to a PLC or robot control, for example, so that the part can be aligned for subsequent process steps.

According to the company, the device is very fast. Up to 40 barcodes and data matrix codes are located per second and then read and verified independently of their position. The code data is available for further processing via an interface.

The sensor is available with different lens versions. In addition, integral red light or infrared LED lights illuminate the image area. The power supply and peripherals are connected via two M 12 connectors.

Approximately the size of a credit card, the sensor is easy to use via the supplied ConVIS software with intuitive user interface. To use the sensor, the user only has to connect the sensor to a PC to configure parameters and operate the sensor using free configuration software.
