PCPW optics provide eight different views of the side and top surfaces of an object.

The wide angle of view (45°) enables the inspection of the side features of an object (for example the threads of a screw or a nut) otherwise impossible to acquire with a single camera. Both the external walls of an object and its top can be imaged at the same time, while internal surfaces of hollow objects can be completely inspected from the outside. A combined view of the internal and external surfaces is possible and an image displaying both the inner walls and the bottom of a cavity can be obtained. In addition to these unique features, PCPW optics also ensure excellent image resolution and image brightness.

HC series features hypercentric lenses for sensors up to 1.1” designed for the simultaneous inspection of the inner sides and bottom surfaces of hollow cylindrical samples of various diameters, such as bottles, cans, vials, threaded holes, and tubes.

HC lenses image the inside of cavities from the outside thanks to the special optical path of the rays passing through bottlenecks and narrow openings. This unique optical design allows to fully inspect the inside surfaces of cavities without the need to rotate the sample or use complex multi-camera systems.
In addition, HC lenses feature variable iris for maximum flexibility and a wide viewing angle to clearly image the features of interest.

HC lenses are available in three different versions:

• SIDE & BOTTOM hypercentric lenses (i.e., HCSIxxx models) are designed for the inspection of both the bottom and the inner walls of cavities in perfect focus;
• BOTTOM hypercentric lenses (i.e., HCBIxxx models) have been developed to specifically inspect the bottom surface of hollow objects at high resolution. By changing the f/N of the lens, part of the side wall can also be inspected in focus.
• NANO hypercentric lenses (i.e., HCN13xxx models) are designed for the high-quality inspection of the inner surfaces of small cavities, down to 0.75 mm.

Hypercentric lenses innovative optical design has been optimized to image inner defects in containers and cavities, specifically for the beverage, pharma, cosmetics and metal industries but also to generally inspect hollow objects in many other industry sectors.

PCCD series features catadioptric lenses exclusively developed and manufactured by Opto Engineering® to enable the 360° top and side view of objects with a single camera.

Their innovative optical design, based on a catadioptric system, makes it possible to image objects of different diameters, ranging from 7.5 mm to 110 mm.

The sides of the object are imaged through the catadioptric system, while the top surface is imaged directly onto the center of the sensor area, allowing for a complete and perfectly focused view of the inspected object.

In addition, the sides of the object being inspected are observed at a wide viewing angle of 35°: this allows to clearly image the features of interest even when inspecting complex geometries.

The compactness and high resolution of these lenses make them ideal to inspect components like pharmaceutical containers, plastic caps, pre-forms, bottlenecks, screws and other threaded objects.

MCSM3M1-025X is a variable macro lens for sensors up to 1.1” specifically designed for 3D measurement and imaging applications where the object plane is not perpendicular to the optical axis. A precise built-in adjustment mechanism allows the lens to accurately meet the Scheimpflug condition and to image tilted planes in perfect focus. This lens offers a wide range of magnifications and angles of view. It can be interfaced with any structured light source to build up extremely accurate 3D imaging systems. Image sharpness is maintained even when the lens is tilted by a wide-angle, since the Scheimpflug adjustment tilts around the horizontal axis of the sensor plane. The tiltable mount is compatible with any C-mount camera.

TCSM series is a unique family of bi-telecentric lenses for extremely accurate 3D dimensional measurement systems. All TCSM lenses are equipped with a high-precision Scheimpflug adjustment mechanism that fits any type of C-mount camera. Besides achieving very good focus at wide tilt angles, bi-telecentricity also yields incredibly low distortion. Images are linearly compressed only in one direction, thus making 3D-reconstruction very easy and exceptionally accurate.

The available magnifications ranges from 0.5x to 0.1x while the angle of view reaches 30°-45° to meet the measurement needs of triangulation-based techniques. The Scheimpflug mount tilts around the horizontal axis of the detector plane to ensure excellent pointing stability and ease of focus.

An upgraded version of TCZR lenses, the newly designed TCZRS lenses feature an extremely precise positioning system with a bipolar stepper motor and an incremental magnetic encoder, delivering exceptional magnification repeatability. Moreover, focusing and image-centering stability are guaranteed at every magnification position, thus avoiding recalibration at any given time.

Four different magnifications, featuring a total zoom range of 8x, can be selected through a dedicated remote control software.

Bi-telecentricity, high resolution and low distortion make these zoom lenses able to perform the same measurement tasks as classic telecentric lenses.

TCDP PLUS series is a range of dual magnification telecentric lenses supporting two cameras to measure objects with different magnifications.
