Sick TriSpector1000 3D vision sensor

Click2Contact

The TriSpector1000 is a 3D vision sensor, which, due to its simple configuration, can carry out inspection tasks standalone and without any programming.

It is ideally suited to use in quality control systems in the consumer goods and packaging industry, where it can count and position objects, measuring their volume and thickness. However, it is also suited to measuring volume in the food industry and monitoring the integrity of totes including contents, completeness and emptiness.

The TriSpector1000 creates 3D images of moving objects directly on the product line, for example. It uses laser triangulation to capture height profiles, which it uses to generate a 3D image of the object. A configurable object finder and analysis tools are applied to the 3D image in the TriSpector1000 directly. The higher-level control system can access the results of these analyses via simple switching outputs or an Ethernet network. Depending on the object size, the TriSpector1000 with its three different fields of view can be used for a variety of applications.

Intensity data improves 3D navigation and allows the system to check for the presence of labels, printed patterns or object rotation. The device has a large field of view and can re-use stored settings, meaning that it can be replaced quickly. The rugged IP67 metal housing with plastic windows ensures that the sensor has the necessary protection for use in harsh conditions, such as in the food industry.
