Overview
The Vision Box Touch is an industrial panel PC with an integrated touchscreen, designed for decentralized, on-machine image processing and real-time machine vision tasks.
Description
The device integrates processor, touch user interface, real-time I/O and an LED controller in a single rugged housing placed close to the inspection point. It eliminates the need for external PCs or large control cabinets, enabling faster integration and localized control of cameras, lighting and sensors.
Advantages
- Direct touchscreen operation for intuitive configuration and monitoring at the machine.
- Real-time I/O and deterministic performance to synchronize sensors, lighting and cameras with high-cycle processes.
- Integrated LED controller to reduce external components and simplify lighting management.
- Rugged industrial design for continuous 24/7 operation and installation in series machines.
Applications
- Pharmaceuticals – real-time code reading, counting and contamination detection.
- Food & Beverage – inspection of product codes, expiry dates and packaging integrity.
- Production & Web Inspection – defect detection in film, textile and metal production with integrated lighting control.
- Packaging & Logistics – barcode, label and printed-text reading on variable production lines.
- Printing industry – capture of changing codes and layouts; flexible camera integration.
Interfaces and compatibility
- Support for common vision standards and camera interfaces such as GigE Vision, USB and Camera Link.
- 5GBase-T mentioned as an integration option for high-bandwidth network connectivity.
- Digital I/Os for trigger and control signals to peripheral equipment.
Technical specifications
- Form factor: panel PC with integrated touchscreen for direct operation at the inspection point.
