PC pericentric lenses are unique 360° view lenses designed to perform all-round inspection of objects from 2 mm up to 65 mm in diameter, quickly and reliably.
The innovative design allows one camera to see the top and lateral surfaces of an object in perfect focus all in one image. This allows you to greatly simplify the layout of the vision system, with no need for multiple cameras, lenses or mirrors.
The term pericentric comes from the specific path of the light rays: the lateral surface of the object appears to be wrapped around the top face, making the PC series ideal for cylindrical objects which are very common in the beverage, pharmaceutical, automotive and metal industry.
Typical applications include bottleneck thread inspection and data matrix reading – the code will always be properly imaged regardless of its position.
