GEVA 300 Back to iPD Back to Smart cameras

Compatible with the full range of DALSA Genie cameras as well as wide variety of GigE area and line scan cameras (colour or mono), GEVA-300 offers a cost-effective and expandable performance platform for a wide range of industrial inspection tasks where multi-camera vision is necessary.

The high-bandwidth GigE camera ports are compatible with with the resolution range of mono or colour, area and line scan GigE cameras, which can be mixed to suit your application needs. Camera expansion is easily accommodated using commercially available network technologies and thus further reducing costs.

In addition to the six GigE ports (four of which are typically used for connecting cameras), the vision system includes a dedicated display and USB ports for setup and run-time control and a serial port for factory communication. The vision system can also be expanded with an optional PL-USB companion module that offers I/O expansion and easy integration for as many as four more Genie cameras.

Design benefits
Incorporating Intel's dual-core ATOM architecture allows GEVA-300 to use low power consumption while providing solid performance. The fanless design of the GEVA-300 means a smaller form-factor that delivers space savings and the appliance also tolerates harsh factory conditions and varying temperatures making it sufficiently rugged and reliable for harsh factory environments

Camera expansion is easily accommodated using commercially available network technologies which enables large configurations to be realised with much lower system costs.

Software Options
GEVA's flexibility is underpinned by two software choices: DALSA's iNspect or Sherlock application software.

The iNspect software is easy to use and requires little or no prior vision experience, while the Sherlock software offers greater flexibility to tackle more challenging inspection tasks as well as allowing mixing of camera technologies within the same application.

Both packages offer a full complement of tools together with interfacing and control options for both users and equipment, such as for applications that require positioning, identification, verification, measurement and flow detection.

PL-USB companion I/O module
The new PL-USB companion I/O expansion module provides additional expansion ports allowing up to four more cameras to be easily integrated. The PL-USB's DIN mountable plastic enclosure makes installation simple without sacrificing valuable panel space, and its compatibility with iNspect Express and Sherlock software ensures quick and easy integration into any GEVA-300 system.
