Ring Light (Direct Lighting)
Ring lighting
comprises a series of radially mounted LEDs. It is a very
powerful lighting system which enables illumination of the
object along its axis, from above. Ring lighting is recommended
for monitoring precision, type marking

Low Angled Light (Direct Lighting)
Low angled lighting enables
edge detection, monitoring a marking and detecting flaws on
glass or metal surfaces. Slightly angled lighting is recommended
for monitoring printed characters, surface condition, detecting
grooves, scratches
Direct lighting is used for
highlighting a small surface area of the object to be monitored
and casting a shadow. Direct lighting is recommended for location
of specific flaws, monitoring screw threads…
The lighting is placed behind
the object and facing the camera. The diffused lighting provides
a clear silhouette of the object (shadow puppet). Back-lighting
is recommended for measuring the sides of an object or analysing
opaque elements encapsulated in glass.
By directing the light towards a semi-reflective
mirror, coaxial lighting enables highlighting of smooth surfaces
perpendicular to the optical axis. Coaxial lighting is recommended
for monitoring, analysing and measuring flat metal and other
reflective surfaces.
