Dual Camera Vision Appliance | iPD VA20

The VA20 provides end users and system integrators with a practical machine vision solution for single or dual camera applications. This DIN mountable system has been specifically designed to minimise integration and speed deployment by providing easily accessible control and intuitive software setup.

The VA20 is a dual camera vision appliance. Unlike its traditional smart camera counterparts, the VA20 incorporates the "smarts" inside the camera controller, as opposed to the camera head. This has the dual benefit of easier integration, since it can be positioned in a chassis alongside other automation controllers. Its small camera size makes it suitable for tight-fit applications. The VA20 offers a very cost effective solution for single camera applications and far surpasses the price performance capability of its competitors. As a two camera system it offers even more price performance.

The key benefit of Vision Appliance is their ease of use. Interfacing the VA20 is a snap. The unit is fully equipped with industrial grade Inputs and Outputs that are wired using removable screw terminal connectors. A visible LED light is coupled to each connection that reflects the active state of the signal. The I/O, together with all external interfaces, is conveniently accessible on the front of the unit facing the user. Application setup software is preinstalled and ready to run, thus eliminating installation and revision control problems.

The VA20 offers two distinct software interfaces, called iNspect and Sherlock. iNspect provides application versatility and ease-of-use, allowing you to setup and deploy a vision solution in a matter of minutes. For more complex tasks, Sherlock provides even greater flexibility and control, giving you the tools and capabilities at your fingertips to apply to almost any application.
