WATERLOO, Canada, May 26, 2026 — Teledyne DALSA is pleased to announce the expansion of its AxCIS family of high-speed, high-resolution, fully integrated line scan imaging modules, now available in resolutions up to 1,800 dpi and lengths of up to 1,500 mm. These easy-to-use Contact Image Sensors (CIS) integrate sensors, lenses and lighting into a single compact unit, offering a cost-effective inspection system for many demanding machine vision applications, including semiconductor wafer, battery and print inspection. 

Powered by Teledyne’s multiline CMOS image sensors, AxCIS delivers exceptional image quality with monochrome line rates of up to 80 kHz at a 14 µm pixel size, or resolutions up to 1,800 dpi. For color inspection, it outputs a native RGB 3-line rate of up to 60 kHz, at a 28 µm pixel size or 900 dpi resolution, so that flaws can be identified with unprecedented precision. AxCIS also offers a unique high dynamic range (HDR) capability to further improve defect detectability. Its unique sensor design covers the entire field of view without missing pixels, providing a 100% seamless image without interpolation, and the telecentric lens supports true metrology applications.

AxCIS has been designed for scalability across various fields of view using a single 24V power supply. With a small form factor and an IP60 dust proof optical path, AxCIS provides the flexibility to fit into systems with limited vertical clearance. Its SFP+ fibreoptic interface delivers high throughput data over standard low-cost, long-length cables with immunity to EMI radiation for harsh industrial environments.
