Industrial Applications

1. High-Speed Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) for Electronics

Integrating the U3-34F0CP Rev.2.3 camera into an inline AOI system to perform rapid defect detection on printed circuit boards (PCBs). The high-speed USB 3 interface streams raw Bayer or Mono data seamlessly at 5.00 Gbps to the vision controller.

Problem Solved

Detecting microscopic soldering and placement defects on fast-moving production lines without bottlenecking throughput, leveraging the camera's 5.11 MP resolution, 75.4 fps frame rate, and hardware trigger for precise strobe synchronization.
