SICK has expanded its Ruler3000 range of 3D streaming cameras with the launch of three compact cameras, as well as an additional mid-range variant. The Ruler3000 cameras now span fields of view between 26.6 and 1680 mm, down to heights of 0.8 µm.
The SICK Ruler3000 range combines the image quality of the company’s Ranger3 streaming camera with the addition of a built-in laser, pre-selected optics and factory-calibrated fields of view.
The SICK Ruler3002, 3004 and 3010 cameras with a high-powered blue 3R laser give the three smaller cameras the rapid exposure times necessary to capture very small three-dimensional details at high production speeds. These cameras are designed to extend the capabilities of the Ruler3000 to the smallest details required to inspect electronics and consumer goods assemblies, printed circuit boards and semiconductors. The addition of the mid-range Ruler 3060, with a field of view of 740 mm is targeted at applications in the automotive and consumer goods industries.
By capturing 3D images, reflectance and scattered light measurements in a single scan at speeds of up to 46 kHz, the Ruler3000 cameras can distinguish differing material properties, useful for example in the cutting of timber and the portioning of meat. The cameras’ high light sensitivity and high dynamic range also help optimise inspections independent of contrast, or widely differing light remissions, in a single scene.
