Backlights

Backlighting provides an area of uniform illumination, oriented behind the object of interest, primarily for creating a part silhouette of instant contrast between dark and light. It is most useful for edge detection, part location/orientation or presence/absence, hole detection, and object gauging. Linear Backlights can also be deployed behind a moving web of material when used in conjunction with line scan cameras.

Bar Lights

Bar Lights, also known as Linear Array Lights, offer both bright field and dark field illumination, depending on angle of incidence. Because of the variety of lengths available, Bar Lights are useful for large area illumination when used in opposing pairs or in a picture frame mounting orientation. Bar Lights can substitute for Spot or Ring Lights when greater intensity is required.

Line Lights

Line Lights, as opposed to Linear Array Bar Lights, employ a secondary lens to focus the light into a narrow beam, typically for short to intermediate working distances. Line Lights are mostly used in conjunction with line scan cameras and are typically mounted in a medium to high angle bright field orientation.  As with any line scan application involving moving surfaces, the lights must have sufficient intensity to freeze motion.

Spot Lights

Spot Lights are typically characterized as general-purpose illuminators. They may be used to create both bright field and dark field effects, depending on the light angle of incidence. Working distances can be short to long, depending on available intensity and beam spread. Small Spot Lights are beneficial when deployed in tight spaces.

Dark Field Ring Lights

Dark Field Ring Lights provide illumination that is projected at a shallow angle to the imaging surface, 45 degrees or less.  Typical applications include reflective flat surface defect or edge detection, where the majority of the light may reflect away from the camera on the flat, featureless surface, but defects may scatter the light to the camera, creating feature-appropriate contrast.  Dark field illuminators can be dedicated ring lights or any general bar or spot light oriented at low angles of incidence, depending on defect orientation.

Bright Field Ring Lights

Bright Field Ring Lights provide illumination directly onto an object, at angles of incidence above 45 degrees from horizontal, creating distinct shadows or general purpose illumination, depending on subject features.  This type of lighting is effective when used on objects requiring high degrees of contrast, but may create unwanted specular reflections when directed at shiny or reflective materials because of the high angle of incidence. Working distances can be short to very long.

Diffuse Lights

Diffuse Lights, also known as “cloudy-day illuminators” provide non-directional, soft illumination that is free of shadowing.  This effect is well suited for inspecting highly specular and curved objects, but at close working distances.  The light I.D. needs to be approximately 50% oversized compared with the object size to be illuminated.

Coaxial Lights

Coaxial Lights provide a type of diffuse illumination, generated from an internal source.  The light is then deflected downward onto the imaging plane via a 50% beamsplitter, which also allows light from the object to be collected by the camera above.  Ideal for imaging highly reflective objects or where the area of inspection is obscured by shadows from its surroundings.
