As a vision technology-focused company, we have an in-depth understanding of a wide range of optics, equipment and systems. The following takes you a minute to understand industrial lenses and their classification, uses and advantages.

1. What is an industrial lens?

Industrial lenses are a kind of lenses specialized in industrial inspection and machine vision systems. Unlike ordinary camera lenses, industrial lenses have higher precision and smaller aberration, which can meet a variety of high-precision industrial inspection needs.

2. Classification of industrial lenses？

Industrial lenses can be categorized into a variety of types based on different ways of classification, and the following are some of the common classifications:

• According to the focal length of the lens: it is divided into fixed-focus lens and zoom lens. The focal length of the fixed-focus lens is fixed, while the zoom lens can be adjusted by the position of the lens to realize the change of focal length.
• According to the magnification of the lens: divided into magnification lens and reduction lens. The magnification lens can enlarge the target to make the detection more convenient; the reduction lens can reduce the target to make the detection more accurate.
• According to the type of lens interface: divided into C interface lens, F interface lens. Different types of lenses have different interfaces and can be adapted to different industrial cameras and inspection systems.

3. Uses of industrial lenses？

Industrial lenses are widely used in a variety of industrial inspection and machine vision systems, such as surface defect detection, dimensional measurement, barcode recognition, color recognition and so on. Through the use of industrial lenses, high-precision image acquisition and data processing can be realized to improve production efficiency and product quality.

4. Advantages of industrial lenses？

Compared with ordinary camera lenses, industrial lenses have the following advantages:

• High precision and high stability: industrial lenses have very small aberrations and deviations, enabling high precision image acquisition and measurement. At the same time, industrial lenses also have high stability and durability, and can work stably in a variety of harsh industrial environments.
• Strong adaptability: industrial lenses have a variety of interface types, can be adapted to a variety of different industrial cameras and inspection systems, convenient for users to integrate and debugging.
• Cost-effective: compared with other high-precision inspection equipment, industrial lenses are more affordable, cost-effective, suitable for large-scale application and promotion.

As a kind of equipment specialized in industrial inspection and machine vision system, industrial lens has the advantages of high precision, high stability, high cost-effective, etc. It can improve production efficiency and product quality, and is one of the indispensable and important equipments in modern industrial production.
