The new BVS-E Identification vision sensor from Balluff checks the markings on your products regardless of whether you label them with 1D codes (barcodes) or 2D codes (Data Matrix codes), reading all common codes on the market. Text and sequences of numbers such as code plain text can be verified using OCV, Optimal Character Verification, the result a simple 'Inspection OK' or ‘Inspection not OK'. If you need to view the read code data to find out which parts are being processed you can output via the RS232 or Ethernet interface.

The BVS-E Identification forms a new part of the expanding range of Balluff’s Vision sensors. Included is the BVS-E advanced vision sensor with 360o position tracking. This monitors the rotational position, detecting an object regardless of the location and position. All configured inspections are also compensated for the parts rotation, minimising the need to tightly fixture parts, reducing setup costs. The new BVS’s added output logic functionality provides the ability to link the result from any tool or combination of tools to any output. This allows the inspection to be customised to any production situation where simple inspection results are not enough.
