Smarter
Since the inception of Cognex over a quarter century ago, weve recognized the importance of performance in successful machine vision applications. Not only the need for high-speed image acquisition and processing, but also the need for a library of powerful vision tools. And thats what Cognex In-Sight delivers today. This assures users of reliable, repeatable performance in the most challenging vision applications.
Easier
The highly-intuitive EasyBuilder user interface delivers everything required to easily set up robust applications. With no programming or spreadsheet needed, applications are deployed at breakthrough speed. The optional VisionView touch-screen operator interface panel creates a tiled view for as many as nine systems. Operators can monitor processes, without requiring a PC.
Die-cast Aluminum Models with sealed M12 connectors and protective lens cover provide an IP67 (NEMA 6) rating for dust and wash-down protection.
Stainless Steel Models are IP68-rated for caustic processing environments, such as in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
In-Sight 3400
Standalone Configuration provides a remote head, with no PC required for setup, only a VGA display.
Image-centric A new point-andclick approach lets users drop in tools quickly by simply clicking on the features of interest I/O Tab allows the user to monitor the input and output signals
Results table Consolidates tool results for easy viewing and helps users understand tool references and performance timing
The EasyBuilder user interface provides intuitive setups for even the most difficult applications. With no programming or spreadsheets needed, applications are deployed at breakthrough speed.
Find an In-Sight vision system on the network, then be guided through triggering the vision system and setting up scale and nonlinear calibrations. After finding the part, a library of 40 vision tools is available to inspect the part. The most powerful vision tools available are now made easy to use. A new point-and-click communications setup provides easy selection of data to be sent, and the protocol to use for communicating to a PLC, robot, or HMI for data collection and archiving results. In the deployment mode, colorful tool graphics, a results table, and a filmstrip control to review images simplify troubleshooting the application and identifying bad parts.
Thats all it takes to complete an application! In a fraction of the time that you would normally spend learning how to set up a vision system, you can have your entire solution configured, deployed, and productive.
The CustomView interface is created easily, and is a cost-effective way to monitor single or networked In-Sight vision systems from a PC.

Advantages
Applications
PART LOCATION TOOLS ... LOCATE PARTS IN WIDELY-VARYING CONDITIONS RELIABLY AND ACCURATELY
PatMax, the industrys performance standard for part and feature location software, utilizes advanced geometric pattern matching technology to locate parts under difficult conditions Simplifies mechanical fixturing and lighting, making vision projects easier and less expensive to implement Locate automotive, electronic, pharmaceutical, and consumer parts and assemblies for inspection Identify locations of parts for robotic handling
INSPECTION TOOLS ... VERIFY THE CORRECT ASSEMBLY OF COMPONENTS AND FIND FLAWS IN PART APPEARANCE
Provides robust, repeatable inspection results despite changes in part orientation Allows users to easily classify defects by defect type Verify correct assembly of automotive parts Verify the contents and seals of packaged goods for food, consumer, and pharmaceuticals Inspect correct assembly of electronics
MEASUREMENT TOOLS ... MEASURE DISTANCES BETWEEN FEATURES, VERIFY TOLERANCES, AND LOCATE EDGES
Enables high-accuracy gauging of critical part dimensions despite changes in part orientation and ambient lighting Measure and verify tolerances of automotive parts, assemblies, and product labels Measure critical tolerances of medical and surgical devices

Advantages
Applications
COLOR VISION TOOLS * ... VERIFY AND SORT A WIDE RANGE OF PART TYPES BASED ON COLOR
Provides robust, reliable color detection of a wide range of part types Converts color images to grayscale for additional types of inspections Verify label color of food and beverage, consumer, and pharmaceutical packaging Sort parts by color on processing and packaging lines, and verify components prior to assembly
ADVANCED OCV /OCR TOOLS ... VERIFY AND READ ALPHANUMERIC TEXT STRINGS
Handles low-contrast characters, as well as confusing or unevenly-spaced characters Inspection speeds of faster than 1ms per character Font editor improves the readability of poorly-trained or degraded fonts Read or verify date/lot codes and SKUs of food and beverage, pharmaceutical, and consumer items Verify character legibility and proper printer operation Read direct-marked numbers and characters on automotive components
INDUSTRIAL CODE READING TOOLS ... RELIABLY READ 1D AND 2D CODES ON LABELS OR DIRECTLY MARKED ON PARTS
Handles low-contrast and poorly formed codes resulting from process degradation and marking techniques such as dot peen and laser etch. Damaged codes, such as the example at left, can also be read with Cognex ID tools. Reads up to 7200 parts per minute Read direct-marked 2D parts for automotive, aerospace, and pharmaceutical products Read and track 1D and 2D codes, and verify print quality to industry standards for consumer, food and beverage, and pharmaceutical products
Pre-configured and user defined RS-232 and RS-495 (Serial) DeviceNet, PROFIBUS, CC-Link (Fieldbus networks)
HMI Communications
To integrate into vision data and images into the operators existing interface, Cognex offers ActiveX Display Controls capable of integrating into common third-party HMI devices and a powerful OPC Server. The In-Sight OPC Server, included with every vision system, allows users to quickly configure and publish OPC tags, delivering quality data to HMI devices, statistical process control systems and plant supervisory systems. Using FTP communications, In-Sight can also send images to data servers for lot and part traceability.
Robot Communications
In addition to locating parts for pick-and-place, or guiding a robot to assemble components, In-Sight vision systems also inspect, measure, and read 1D and 2D codes as products are being handled or assembled. Tight, seamless communication is assured through robot drivers, robot sample code, string formatter, and spreadsheet snippets.
PLC Communications
Where existing PLC equipment uses Ethernet, fieldbus or serial communications or a combination of all three, In-Sight vision systems easily integrate for control and data exchange. Conformance to industry-standard protocols such as Ethernet I/P, PROFINET, MC Protocol, and Modbus TCP ensures acquisition triggers, vision inspection results and statistical data are reliably exchanged over Ethernet. Protocol gateways place In-Sight vision systems on fieldbus networks such as CC-Link, DeviceNet and PROFIBUS. Legacy PLC systems are easily integrated through serial protocols and discrete I/O.
Lighting
In order to achieve the highest quality images possible, Cognex offers a wide array of lighting accessories. When basic lighting works for the application, integrated ring lights are ideal for In-Sight vision systems. Easily mounted directly to the vision system, these lights provide basic front lighting without having to purchase and install a separate light. Integrated ring lights are available in red LEDs, red diffuse LEDs, and white LEDs.
I/O Modules
In-Sight I/O modules are designed to simplify connections and expand the I/O capabilities of In-Sight vision systems. They allow easy access to power, acquisition triggers, and light strobe, and provide convenient general-purpose input and output wiring. Rugged quick-connect cables ensure reliable connections to the In-Sight vision system. Additionally, I/O modules provide an RS-232 communications port for serial devices.
Lenses
Cognex offers a full range of high-quality compact camera lenses designed specifically for machine vision applications. And, for In-Sight ID readers, Image Formation Systems are available in 7 different lens focal lengths.
Cables
In-Sight cables provide superior performance with rugged, stainless steel M12 connectors and are rated for ten million linear and thirty thousand torsional flex cycles ... ideal for robot-mounted applications.
Your Cognex sales engineer or Automation Solution Provider (ASP) can provide information on other accessories that enhance In-Sight systems.
Training
