What Is

Network Vision Sensor?

Product Configuration
Model MELFA-Vision software 3D-51C-WINE Type Remarks

A network vision sensor is an optional function that adds vision to a robot. Having "vision," robots can discriminate works to find those that require processing. Accordingly, robots equipped with a network vision sensor can perform various functions, such as transferring, processing, assembling, inspecting and measuring.

Features

System Requirements
Item (COGNEX provided by customer) Software Supported robot controllers Connectable robots Options (*16) Specification Robot controller: Version K6 or later (*13) RT ToolBox: Version F3 or later (*14) All CRn-500 Series controllers All robots (*15) An Ethernet interface card (2A-HR533) is required.

Easy setup
Easy setup using MELFA-Vision software. Easy programming using dedicated robot language commands. Robots can be monitored remotely through Ethernet communication to report image status.

System cost reduction through shared use of vision sensors


Three robots and seven vision sensors can be combined into one system via Ethernet connection.

Extended variations available


Standard and high-speed processing models High-resolution, color, and remote-head camera models

MODEL 3D-51C-WINE

*13) With the versions K5 and earlier, vision sensor communication can be established by a combination of existing commands "OPEN/PRINT/INPUT/CLOSE". Versions K7 and later can communicate with a vision sensor to high-speed by improved command. *14) The version F2 or earlier does not support the dedicated MELFA-BASIC IV vision sensor commands, and thus errors occur in syntax check. If you are using RT ToolBox Version F2 or earlier, disable the syntax check. *15) Take note that if the tracking function is used, robot models that can be used will be limited. *16) An expansion option box is needed to use CR1/CR1B controllers with vision sensors. Install the Ethernet interface card (2A-HR533) in Option slot 1.

Specifications/Functions Standard job programs supporting various types of operations are provided. Using these programs, even a first-time users can design vision sensor
systems with ease. MELFA-Vision software is the only tool needed to easily and quickly customize vision applications. We have also developed original commands for network vision sensors to further simplify creation of required programs. You can be made easy to customize job by using dedicated software.
