Combine controls from multiple devices using a single camera.
Imagine reading a barcode and checking the color on the same part with traditional systems. Omron's F430-F Series Smart Camera brings all these functions into one device, significantly simplifying application design. The single camera solution also reduces initial investment, reduces cabling work and keeps maintenance costs to a minimum.
Presence, color and shape detection and code reading simultaneously
The F430-F Series can simultaneously perform detection tasks (presence, color and shape) and code reading within the field of view. You can easily increase checkpoints for quality improvement.

Moreover, with high resolution…
When low-resolution cameras are used, multiple cameras are required to divide a view into several sections and achieve the resolution required for inspections.
The F430-F Series' 5-megapixel color camera enables high-resolution imaging of multiple points with a single device.

Long-life autofocus lens ensures long operating life without the need for replacement.

How long does it take to replace the camera due to malfunction caused by focus changes?

Featuring a long-lasting liquid lens, the F430-F Series provides unlimited autofocus by easily focusing on different positions by simply changing the focus. The liquid lens also eliminates the problem of having to replace it every few months, which is the case with mechanical autofocus lenses.
Difference between mechanical autofocus and liquid lens autofocus

Mechanical autofocus uses a small motor as the main component. Metal fatigue and wear shorten the life of the camera, which must be replaced every year. The liquid lens can flexibly change the focal length without mechanical wear by applying voltage to change the shape of internal oil and water.

Easy setting in 3 steps
Follow the onscreen guide to start examining in three steps: View, Edit, and Run.

[STEP 1. Image] One click to optimize image
Position an object at a focal length and press the Autofocus button to optimize the focus and brightness of the review image.

[STEP 2. Edit] Just select the tools and specify the review areas
Setup can be done by selecting tools and identifying inspection areas. You can check the test measurement results from this screen and adjust the control limits by examining the screen.

[STEP 3. Output] Set the outputs.
Reduce PLC connection design time by selecting values and register fields for each control point to assign outputs. In addition to OK/NG results, measured values, code reading results and OCR results can be output, which are useful for data collection.
