Description
VLXT-31M I Camera for High-Speed Monochrome Machine Vision
The VLXT-31M.I is a high-performance monochrome industrial camera designed for demanding machine vision applications that require speed, precision, and reliable data handling. Built around the Sony IMX252 Gen2 sensor, this 3.1 megapixel camera delivers sharp grayscale imaging at a resolution of 2048 × 1536 pixels while achieving up to 217 frames per second at full resolution.
Its global shutter technology ensures that even fast-moving objects are captured without distortion or motion blur. This makes the VLXT-31M.I highly suitable for high-speed inspection tasks such as electronics manufacturing, packaging lines, automation systems, and precision measurement environments where timing accuracy is critical.
The camera is equipped with a powerful 10 GigE Vision interface, enabling extremely fast and stable data transmission across industrial networks. This ensures minimal latency and supports high-throughput imaging systems where large volumes of data must be processed in real time.
The VLXT-31M.I also provides a rich set of image enhancement and control features. Users can adjust gain, offset, LUT, gamma, and noise reduction to optimize image quality under varying lighting conditions. Functions such as Multi ROI, partial scan, binning, and adjustable framerate allow flexible configuration to balance resolution and speed according to application needs.
For system-level reliability, the camera includes a 1024 MB internal buffer that stabilizes image acquisition during peak processing loads. In addition, IEEE 1588 time synchronization enables precise coordination across multiple cameras in synchronized inspection systems.
Designed for industrial environments, the VLXT-31M.I features a compact 60 mm aluminum housing with C-mount compatibility, making it easy to integrate into existing optical setups. Its robust design supports protection up to IP67 when used with appropriate accessories, ensuring durability in challenging factory conditions.
With advanced triggering options including hardware, software, Action Command, and sequencer-based control, the VLXT-31M.I provides exceptional flexibility for automation workflows. Its combination of high speed, precision imaging, and industrial reliability makes it an ideal choice for modern machine vision systems.
