Teledyne’s Contact Image Sensors for high-speed, high-resolution line scan are now in production

Powered by Teledyne’s multiline CMOS image sensors, AxCIS delivers superior image quality, up to 120 kHz line rates for mono, or 60 kHz x 2 for HDR imaging, at a pixel size of 28 µm or 900 dpi resolution, so that defects can be detected with unprecedented precision.

Teledyne DALSA is pleased to announce that its AxCIS™ family of high-speed and high-resolution fully integrated line scan imaging modules are in production. These easy-to-use Contact Image Sensors (CIS) combine sensors, lenses, and lights all-in-one, offering a lower cost inspection system for many demanding machine vision applications.


Powered by Teledyne's multiline CMOS image sensors, AxCIS delivers superior image quality, up to 120 kHz line rates for mono, or 60 kHz x 2 for HDR imaging, at a pixel size of 28 µm or 900 dpi resolution, so that defects can be detected with unprecedented precision.

Its unique sensor design covers the entire field of view without missing pixels, providing a 100% seamless image without any interpolation. HDR imaging is achieved using dual rows with independent exposure control, which enables better detectability for highly reflective materials with improved dynamic range. In addition to defect detection, its unique design also supports true metrology applications.

AxCIS has been designed with scalability to various fields of view with a single 24V power supply. With a small form factor and an optical path with an IP60 dust proof design, AxCIS can fit almost anywhere in your system, even with limited vertical clearance. Its Camera Link HS SFP+ fibreoptic interface delivers high throughput data over standard low-cost, long-length cables with immunity to EMI radiation for harsh industrial environments.

Cold air to -50°F (-46°C) from your compressed air supply — with no moving parts!

Cold air to -50°F (-46°C) from your compressed air supply - with no moving parts!

A low cost, reliable, maintenance free solution to a variety of industrial spot cooling problems. Using an ordinary supply of compressed air as a power source, vortex tubes create two streams of air, one hot and one cold, with no moving parts. Vortex tubes can produce: • Temperatures from -50° to +260°F (-46° to +127°C) • Flow rates from 1 to 150 SCFM (28 to 4248 SLPM) • Refrigeration up to 10,200 Btu/hr. (2571 Kcal/hr.) Temperatures, flows and refrigeration are adjustable over a wide range using the control valve on the hot end exhaust. EXAIR Vortex Tubes are constructed of stainless steel. The wear resistance of stainless steel, as well as its resistance to corrosion and oxidation, assures that EXAIR Vortex Tubes will provide years of reliable, maintenance-free operation. https://exair.co/184_530
