F160 Vision Sensor



Great performance from a Sensor with No Blind Spots

The development of the F160 represents the arrivals of a remarkable vision sensor that answers the needs of today's inspection line.  It has the processing speed required for ultra high-speed lines and, using memory cards, has the capacity  required for multi-product lines.  Choose from a comprehensive selection of cameras for just the right type of inspection, and customize screens and operations to ensure optimum on-site operability.  Initial setup can be performed even by inexperienced operators thanks to user-friendly conversational menus, and inspection performance has been comprehensively improved using new algorithms.

Creating new possibilities with incredible speed

The F160 can be applied to ultra high-speed lines.  It allows a greater range of inspections within the required tact time, contributing greatly to the improvement of inspection quality

+ The newly-developed Double-speed Camera allows images to be captured up to 4 times faster than with previous cameras, and image processing can now be achieved 2 to 10 times faster than before.  For example, gray search for the image shown in the picture below can be performed 5,000 items-a-minute inspection lines.  Also, because each individual inspection is made at high speed, the total inspection time for complicated applications has been dramatically reduced.  This creates extra time for inspections that were not possible before, leading to significant improvements in inspection quality.

 Use in a wide variety of applications with a greatly reduced installation time

Data-handling capacity increased with memory cards click to view enlarged picture
+ The F160 enables reductions in setup costs and allows a greater number of scenes to be used.  The F160 is equipped with a memory card slot that allows the number of available scenes to be increased simply by inserting a card.  With a 128-MByte card, for example, up to 1,000 scenes can be saved (see note).  The construction of computer-based systems for exchanging scene data is no longer required.

Note: The actual number of scenes that can be saved depends on the scene settings
Increased functionality for storing images click to view an enlarged picture
+ Up to 35 screens of measurement images and improper images (i.e. images of improper products) can be stored.  Also, because the most recent improper image can be viewed while performing measurement, problems in the inspection line can be analyzed without stopping production.
I/O monitor

+ The status of input and output terminals can be displayed on the screen.  This function can be used for checking wiring when making adjustments to the system.
Screen capture

click to view an enlarged picture

+ Images of menu setting screens, measurement screens, and improper images can be captured and stored in the memory card.  This feature is very useful for creating documentation.
A wide variety of cameras

+ Omron's Double-speed Cameras, F150 Cameras, or F200/F300 Cameras can be connected.  Use the Camera that meets your speed, cost, and lighting requirements.
Double-speed Camera
F160-S1/SLC20/SLC50


The shutter speed can be set to one of 8 settings from the Controller.  Cameras with Intelligent lighting are also included in the lineup.
 F150 Camera
F150-S1A/SLC20/SLC50/SL20A/SL50A


Compact and cost-effective. Models with intelligent lighting or compact LED lighting are available.
 F200/F300 Camera



Existing cameras can be used by just moving them from the F200/F300 to the F160.

Customize operations, screens, and output to suit your requirements


Operations

Menu masking

click to view an enlarged picture

+ Utility data, such as power, air, and water consumption, and other types of analog data, are automatically collected from DeviceNet slaves and serial devices at the factory.  With the ONC, monitoring and setting can be performed via the Web using browser. 
Password setting

click to view an enlarged picture

+ Passwords can be set to restrict the personnel allowed to operate the F160.  This function helps to improve security and reduce incorrect operation.
Shortcut keys click to view an enlarged picture

+ Screen messages can be changed to suit the on-site environment and can be displayed in any desired position on the screen.

It is possible to select the character-size and the display can be black-white inverted.
Drawing figures click to view an enlarged picture
+ Figures such as lines, boxes, circles, and cross cursors can be drawn.  It is also possible to these figures at measurement positions.
Color Display

Inspection revolutionized with new algorithms
Quest character recognition

click to view an enlarged picture

+ The F160 uses OMRON's character recognition system - QUEST.

Features
- The user does not have to register characters
- High-level of discrimination of similar characters
- Adapts to fluctuations in shape and size
"Variable Box" measurement for defect inspection

click to view an enlarged picture

+ The measurement region can be set to change automatically when performing inspections for objects with varying sizes, such as electronic chip components.  This feature ensures that the optimum measurement regions are always used for inspection.
Flexible search

click to view an enlarged picture

+ Using this method, matching is performed using more than one reference image and so the F160 can perform inspection for objects with varying shapes.  This feature helps to reduce incorrect judgments.
A variety of functions accessible with easy-to-use menus

Rotation search



click to view an enlarged picture
E.g. Searching in a rotation angle of 360" with a skipping angle of 5" 

+ Using this method, search is performed while the image is rotated.  Processing is performed 10 times faster than with existing models.  Using angle interpolation, it is possible to detect angles with a high degree of precision.
Classification

click to view an enlarged picture

+ A search is performed for more than one model, and the model number with the highest correlation is output.  The flexible search function can be used for applications involving objects with different shapes.
Edge width

click to view an enlarged picture

+ The positions of both edges of an object are detected with high accuracy, and from this the width of the object is calculated.  It is not necessary to set expressions for calculating the width.
Labeling

click to view an enlarged picture

+ The number of labels (i.e., objects) inside the measurement region is counted.  After they have been sorted according to area or center of gravity, the measurement data for specified labels is output.
Position displacement compensation

click to view an enlarged picture

+ With the F160, compensation using only the outline of the object, 2-stage position compensation, and setting priorities for the compensation direction are all possible.
Expressions

click to view an enlarged picture

+ Judgments and data output based on a maximum of 32 expressions is possible.  Up to 32 variables (representing other expressions) can be used, enabling more complex calculations.
