BUILD YOUR VISION
Cognex vision systems, vision sensors and 3D laser displacement sensors
provide the widest range of application solutions with greater reliability and
repeatability than any other supplier. Cognex also has a global network of
vision experts with the knowledge to assist you wherever and whenever
needed. With Cognex machine vision systems in place, you can perform
100% inspection, ensure brand quality and instantly improve your
production processes.
Cognex vision technology performs tasks that are difficult or impossible for
people to do reliably and consistently. Our vision systems help to automate
and error-proof production, minimizing defects and reducing costs.
Inspection
Inspect for assembly errors, surface defects, damaged parts and
missing features. Identify the orientation, shape and position of
objects and features.
Guide/Align
Guide automation equipment and robotic devices. Align parts for high
accuracy assembly operations and other manufacturing processes.
Gauge/Measure
Gauge parts to check critical dimensions. Measure components
for sorting and classification.
OCR/OCV
Read and verify alphanumeric characters marked directly on parts
and printed on labels.
Presence/Absence
Detect the presence or absence of simple features and objects
to give basic pass/fail results.
Code Reading
Read 1-D barcodes and 2-D matrix codes as part of an overall
inspection. For applications that are specific to barcode reading,
also look to DataMan image-based barcode readers.

MACHINE VISION PRODUCTS
3D Laser Displacement Sensors
3D laser displacement sensors optimize product quality by providing
three-dimensional inspection of your products. These industrial sensors
come bundled with vision controller, Cognex Designer software and
world-class 3D and 2D vision tools.
Benefits:
Unlike traditional 2D machine vision, laser displacement sensors provide
a topographical representation of the 3D features relative to any surface.
Cognex 3D laser displacement sensors are factory calibrated to deliver results
in real units of measurement with micron-level accuracy, and Cognex field
calibration techniques allow preservation of accuracy despite mounting and
motion errors. Multiple Cognex sensors can be used in combination across
wide production lines to generate single high resolution 3D images.
Inspects and measures in 3D: Volume, area, height, tilt, circle fitting and
curvature removal tools
Performs OCR on raised or embossed characters
Calibrated to micron-level accuracy in real-world units
Provides contrast independent inspection: Dark object on dark background
Concurrently acquires intensity data for aligned 2D and 3D inspection
Combines 3D sensors and 2D cameras with world-class 3D and 2D vision
tools: PatMax, 1DMax and OCRMax algorithms
Industrial IP65 housing: IP69K enclosure option
Fast scan rates: Up to 18KHz

Cognex Designer
The Cognex Designer development environment allows quick creation
and deployment of high-performance vision applications. Providing all
thats needed to configure vision tools, design professional graphical user
interfaces, synchronize with external hardware, and connect to the factory
network, Cognex Designer includes the rich, factory-proven VisionPro
library of alignment, inspection and identification tools that are optimized
for fast, accurate performance.
Benefits:
Graphically create vision applications that are easy to deploy
and maintain
Connect Cognex 3D displacement sensors, or a wide
range of other Cognex and third-party industrial cameras
Efficiently inspect, identify, and guide parts using
PatMax, 1DMax and OCRMax vision tools
Interact with robots, motion stages, reject mechanisms
and other industrial hardware
Deploy on a Cognex Vision Controller for standalone
operation, or integrate in a high-speed industrial PC

INDUSTRY LEADING TECHNOLOGY
Reliable Part Location
Finding a part in the image is an essential first step in most machine
vision applications and is often the determining factor in the success
of the application. Pattern matching is the most common method for
finding a part in an image.
