1. High-Clearance PCB Solder Joint Inspection
Utilizing the IDS-12M23-C7528 lens mounted on a 12MP 2/3" sensor camera, automated optical inspection (AOI) systems can reliably capture microscopic solder defects. The 75mm focal length and 0.25m minimal object distance provide significant magnification while maintaining enough physical clearance for robotic soldering arms and lighting equipment.
Problem SolvedSolves the problem of spatial constraints in AOI machines by allowing the camera to be placed further away from the circuit board without sacrificing the high magnification required to see microscopic defects.

2. Standoff Metrology in High-Temperature Manufacturing
In metal forging or glass extrusion processes, cameras must be placed at a safe distance from extreme heat sources. The narrow 6.7° x 5.0° angle of view and 75mm focal length allow the vision system to capture precise dimensional measurements of hot parts from a standoff distance, utilizing the full 12MP resolving power for exact tolerance checks.
Problem SolvedEliminates heat damage to sensitive camera sensors and optics by enabling high-resolution dimensional inspection from a distant, thermally safe mounting point.

3. Pharmaceutical Vial Particulate Inspection
Pharmaceutical lines require high-speed, high-resolution imaging to detect foreign particulates inside sealed vials. The f/2.8 to f/16 aperture range provides the necessary depth of field control, while the 2.20 µm minimal pixel pitch ensures that even the smallest contaminants are resolved clearly by the sensor without optical distortion.
Problem SolvedOvercomes the challenge of reliably detecting micro-contaminants in transparent liquids by providing high-resolving power and adaptable depth of field for fast-moving production lines.
