Solution and Benefits:
High-speed imaging are often required to help engineers see, measure, and understand motions that are…
…a blur to the human eye in real time. By playing back recorded images in expanded time, engineers could measure timing errors, bounce, vibration, displacements, and many other anomalies that cause manufacturing problems.
In this real life example, we use Mikrotron MotionBLITZ Eosens mini 2 camera which have high capturing frame rate (Stepless adjustable frame rate up to more than 200,000 frames per second at reduced resolution) to capture the mechanism of shave rotation.
Unlike standard industrial camera which has limited buffer memory on-board, Mikrotron MotionBLITZ Eosens mini 2 camera uses solid-state memory as a ring buffer, the cameras can record up to 3 secs at full resolution and full speed without connecting to a PC.
By adjusting the AOI to resolution 336 x 400 and 2020 fps and the combination of three lightings (internal coaxial spot light, back light and ring light) on this application, we able to record a crystal-clear image and video for the monitoring. In addition to that, the price and performance of the system is better than other stand-alone, handheld systems in the market.
