Description
IM-compact M imaging module
The Opto IM-compact M is characterized by the only 40mm wide 90° angled all-aluminium housing. They can be fitted with different optics and camera technology and therefore function as a:
- USB reflected light microscopes for opaque samples
- Quality assurance vision sensors with coaxial and ring light illumination
- Inverted digital microscopes with minimal height Thanks to the angled design
- Plug&Play Machine Vision Microscope (MVM) for demanding image processing tasks
This imaging module from the MVM series incorporates a coaxial incident light illuminator and a diffuse ring light, and the fast switching of the illumination variants enables additional contrast options.
Cost reduction
The aim of the IM development was to reduce the necessary components such as camera, tube, lens, coaxial and ring light as well as the corresponding LED controller from 7 to 1. The cable connections were also kept to a minimum.
IM-compact M for any installation position
Thanks to its compact design, the IM-compact M digital microscope:
- upright
- 90°-rotated or also
- can be used inversely.
There are several mounting threads on this all-aluminum housing for flexible machine integration.
IM-compact M as a digital microscope for metallography or biology
The new IM-compact M is a digital Machine Vision Microscope (MVM) – camera, optics and illumination, all in one sensor. These modules offer the user excellent ease of use. They can be easily and quickly integrated into many measurement setups, analysis devices or life science systems. The clear plus points here:
- Pre-calibrated sensors with micrometer resolution
- SLWD microscope optics in a compact aluminum housing
- Sample-optimized lighting selection of the integrated coaxial and ring light illumination
- Standard interface USB 3.1
- Software package for sensor control, image acquisition and simple measurement and documentation tasks
M-compact M as a control and measuring tool in production
IM-compact M as a documentation tool and discussion platform for quality assurance in production. The robust aluminum housing is ideally suited for use in harsh environments. Thanks to its compact design, the IM-compact M digital microscope can be set up quickly at a wide variety of workstations.
IM-compact M as a miniaturized microscope replacement
The difference in size becomes clear when compared to a standard microscope. When displayed on a monitor, i.e. a camera image, there is no difference in quality. A machine vision microscope (MVM) may only have a fixed magnification, but the fixed optical parameters guarantee a much higher reproduction of the image quality and repeatability of your measurements. In addition, two imaging modules are available for the budget of a large standard microscope – these in turn are optimized for their respective inspection task.
