See Product Details

The PL-B741 & PL-B741E & PL-B742 have a rich set of features and capabilities all controllable through software. A global shutter and external trigger allows for synchronization in demanding machine vision applications. In video mode, the camera can deliver 33 fps at 1k x 1k resolution, 105 fps at VGA resolution (640 x 480) and 4400 fps at 24 x 24, all with an 8 pixel user-definable region of interest (ROI). Full field-of-view images can be decimated for high-speed transmission. The CMOS sensor architecture provides excellent anti-blooming capability.

*Note - The 741E offers excellent responsivity in the Near-IR. From 700 nm to 1000 nm, responsivity is substantially increased over the PL-B741 providing users with an affordable solution for Near-IR imaging.

Multi-slope dynamic range controls enable a balanced exposure in images with large scene dynamic range (low light areas to direct sunlight). This "logarithmic shutter" capability allows the camera to image scenes with 100+dB dynamic range making the camera well suited for traffic monitoring and welding inspection applications.

Reduces cost and shortens development cycle

PixeLINK believes the integration of imaging products with software should be a quick endeavor. That's why our industry leading Software Developer's Kit (SDK) uses a common API for all of the cameras regardless of the customer's chosen interface. Software code developed for one camera model is easily transferred to other PixeLINK camera models, without the need to recompile, saving you time and money. The SDK also includes the source code forPixeLINK Capture OEM, our free image capture and camera control application, wrappers for National Instruments LabVIEW and full documentation. For those requiring additional software flexibility, Direct Show, DCAM (FireWire only),Halcon and TWAIN are also supported.

Typical Applications include:

  • Automated Parts Inspection
  • PCB and Semiconductor Inspection
  • Container Inspection
  • Welding Inspection
  • Food, Beverage and Lumber Inspection
  • Manufacturing Quality Control
  • Traffic Monitoring
  • PL-B741E Offers Applications requiring NIR Responsivity (Medical)
