Keyence Vision Sensor IV-500CA

Keyence Corporation was founded in 1974 in Osaka, Japan and specializes in factory automation. Ranging in everything from photoelectric and proximity sensors to measuring instruments for inspection lines and high precision microscopes used in institutions. Keyence not only manufacturers high end parts but specializes in product planning and development and does not manufacture the final products. These products are produced at contract qualifying manufacturing companies. Keyence is a direct sales organization that develops automation sensors, vision systems, barcode readers, laser markers, measuring instruments, and digital microscopes.

Vision sensors use images captured by a camera to determine presence, orientation, and accuracy of parts. These sensors differ from image inspection “systems” in that the camera, light, and controller are contained in a single unit, which makes the unit’s construction and operation simple. There are differences between these sensors and other general-purpose sensors. For example, multi-point inspections can be done with a single sensor. In addition, thanks to the wide field of view, detection is possible even when the target position is not consistent.
