Cognex introduces In-Sight 500 industrial vision system

February 7, 2012 - Cognex introduces the In-Sight 500, with the fastest acquisition speed of any of its industrial vision systems. The In-Sight 500 can inspect parts on the very fastest production lines.

The In‐Sight 500 vision system is a high‐performance, fixed‐mount vision system packaged in a rugged, IP65‐rated housing. It is powered by a proprietary vision chip technology, Cognex VSoC (Vision System on a Chip), which enables the system to process images at up to 500 frames per second (fps) with windowed acquisition.

High-speed, simple vision inspection
In addition to the standard In‐Sight programming interface, tool set and communication methods, the In‐Sight 500 vision system achieves speeds of 100fps at the full 1024 x 768 pixels of resolution and 200fps at 640 x 480.  In‐Sight 500 also provides the ability to further window an acquired image which can accelerate the acquisition to as high as 500fps.

Inspection using blobs, histogram, edges at higher acquisition speeds
In-Sight 500 can acquire images while simultaneously processing applications at 500fps. Its fast acquisition speed and powerful processor make this vision system ideal for applications requiring relatively simple inspection applications. The full suite of In-Sight tools and communication methods is available with In-Sight 500, including Cognex Connect which supports EtherNet/IP and PROFINET, among other communication protocols.

There is an acute need for this level of performance among global manufacturers, particularly in the medical device, packaging and pharmaceutical industries where the programming interface, extensive tool set and communication of the In-Sight 500 can be used very effectively.
