Description
VLXT-31M FO Camera for High-Speed Precision Imaging
The VLXT-31M.FO is a high-performance monochrome industrial camera designed for applications that demand exceptional speed, precision, and system flexibility. Built on the Sony IMX252 3.1 megapixel CMOS sensor, it delivers sharp grayscale imaging at a resolution of 2048 × 1536 pixels while achieving up to 217 frames per second at full resolution.
This camera is engineered with a global shutter, ensuring that fast-moving objects are captured without distortion or motion artifacts. This makes it highly suitable for automation inspection, electronics manufacturing, packaging lines, and high-speed measurement systems where accuracy is critical.
One of the key strengths of the VLXT-31M.FO is its high-speed 10 GigE interface with SFP+ connectivity. This enables extremely fast and stable data transmission, making it ideal for real-time machine vision applications that require large data throughput with minimal latency.
The camera offers advanced image control capabilities, including adjustable gain, offset, LUT, gamma correction, and noise reduction. These tools help optimize image quality under varying lighting conditions, ensuring reliable inspection results. Flexible acquisition modes such as Multi ROI, partial scan, and binning allow users to tailor resolution and speed based on application needs.
For system integration, the VLXT-31M.FO includes a robust 1024 MB internal buffer that stabilizes image acquisition during peak processing loads. The camera also supports IEEE 1588 precision time protocol, enabling synchronized operation in multi-camera setups where timing accuracy is essential.
Its compact 60 mm aluminum housing ensures durability while maintaining a lightweight structure. The C-mount lens compatibility allows easy integration into existing optical systems, while support for Corning liquid lens technology enables dynamic focusing in automated environments.
With powerful triggering options, including hardware, software, Action Command, and sequencer-based control, the VLXT-31M.FO provides high flexibility for complex automation workflows. Combined with its industrial-grade reliability and advanced imaging performance, it stands as a strong solution for modern high-speed machine vision systems.
