Increasing the capability of machine
vision lenses
In applications where there is little space above the object - Moritex's side looking prism adapters enable the optical axis to be turned through 90 degrees overcoming the space limitations
Moritex, a manufacturer of optical lenses and illumination systems for wide ranging machine vision and inspection applications, has announced new additions to its range of prism adapters Designed for use with Micro Machine Lenses (MML) - Moritex prism lens adapters enable manipulation of the optical axis

In applications where there is little space above the object - Moritex's side looking prism adapters enable the optical axis to be turned through 90 degrees overcoming the space limitations.
To enable narrow pitch marks within a small area to be recognised (mark recognition) a range of optical axis pitch conversion prisms are available to decrease the pitch between two MML lenses.
New prism adapters are available that provide two optical views with different focusing.
Standard prism adapters are available for 16mm, 18mm, 25mm, 35mm and 37.5mm diameter lenses.
Moritex can also supply custom designed prism adapter units, with adjusting CCD cameras and optical unit positions.
Moritex MML's are ultra compact, low mass lenses that are recognized as a high performance benchmark for applications including machine vision alignment, image gauging and surface inspection.
Moritex MML's are telecentric lenses, which maintain a constant view angle to the subject.
This is achieved by keeping the optical ray paths parallel to each other.
Lens telecentricity is crucial in machine vision applications such as alignment or gauging where view angle and magnification errors need to be minimised.
