New Balluff Configurator Tool Simplifies Building a Machine Vision System

August 19, 2019

With Balluff’s new online Machine Vision configurator tool, users can confidently and efficiently select the product combinations required for configuring a complete vision system to meet their application needs.

Users start by inputting basic physical parameters including working distance and image size and the configurator filters selections of cameras, lenses, filters, lighting devices and accessories to only those tested and proven to work together.

Once a system has been built to meet the application needs, users can add products to the web cart, where they can view availability and pricing, or export the product list to an Excel or CSV file.

Additional products will be added to the configurator tool as they are released.

Industrial image processing is indispensable for modern, flexible manufacturing because it ensures product quality and supports efficient manufacturing processes. Balluff offers complete industrial image processing solutions from a single source.

Key features include:

  • Web configuration system simplifies the vision system product selection and ordering process
  • Product combinations have been tested and proven compatible together

B&R Automation: Cost-effective motor/valve control

B&R’s new digital output module X20DO4332-1 has integrated pulse width modulation and is a cost-effective alternative to motor modules. In addition, the module offers a dither function that prevents valves from sticking. Pulse width modulation (PWM) is mainly used for controlling larger loads, such as motors. Instead of using electronics to regulate a continuous input voltage down to the desired motor voltage, the motor is controlled by the width of the switching pulses.
