Advanced Illumination

Ring Lights – Dark Field   Dark Field Lights provide illumination that is projected at a shallow angle to the imaging surface.   Typical applications include reflective flat surface defect or edge detection, where the majority of the light may reflect away from the camera on the flat, featureless surface but defects may scatter the light […]

Line Lights   LED Line Lights, as opposed to linear array bar lights, employ a secondary lens to focus the light into a narrow beam, typically for short to intermediate working distances, and are mostly used in conjunction with line scan cameras.   Line lights are typically mounted in a medium to high angle bright

Diffuse “Cloudy Day” Illumination   Machine Vision Diffuse Dome lights provide diffuse “cloudy-day illumination”.  Internal reflected light provides non-directional soft illumination that is free of shadowing. This effect is well suited for illuminating highly specular-reflective objects at close working distances.  The inside diameter of the light needs to be roughly 50% oversized with respect to

Bar Lights   Bar Lights, also known as Linear Array Lights, offer both bright field and dark field illumination, dependent upon the angle of incidence of the illumination with respect to the object of interest.    Because of the variety of lengths available, bar lights are useful for large area illumination when used in opposing

Backlights Back Lighting provides an area of uniform illumination, oriented behind the object of interest, primarily for creating a part silhouette of instant contrast between dark and light.     Back Lighting is most useful for edge detection, part location/orientation or presence/absence, hole detection and object gauging.    Linear back lights can also be deployed behind
