Description

The monochrome SK512U3HU line scan camera is equipped with a 512 pixel CMOS sensor. The maximum line frequency is 26.315 kHz.

Features
All lenses show some vignetting as a function of the field angle. Hence, even with homogeneous object illumination, the signal intensity of the image decreases with increasing image height. Shading correction (or flat field compensation) is used to compensate for lens vignetting as well as for inhomogeneity in the illumination. The sensor has a blooming protection against over exposure. The integration control / electronic shutter function enables to control the exposure time independently from the line frequency.

Synchronization
Line scan cameras have to be externally synchronized in order to obtain distortion-free images. There are two different synchronization functions that can be applied together or individually:
1. Line Synchronization triggers each individual exposure of the sensor line by line, this includes: Line Start, Exposure Active , Exposure Start .
2. Frame Synchronization is the recording of a set of lines (frame) representing a two dimensional image, including: Frame Sync and Threshold Trigger.

Lenses and Adapters
The lens or tube attachment is C-Mount. Adapters are available for other dimensions, see Accessories.

Software and SDK
SKLineScan is designed for start-up and control the line scan camera. It is free for use. The SDK SK91GigE-WIN is based on C++ and includes examples for C/C++ with Visual Studio 2012 / 2017 / 2019. Supported operating systems are Windows 7, 8.1, 10, both 32 bit and 64 bit."
