Key Features Description
Key Features DescriptionThe Basler A404K excels in high-speed imaging with its optimized sensor readout architecture. Its global shutter eliminates motion blur for moving conveyor belt applications, while the 12-bit ADC provides superior grayscale resolution for defect detection. The camera’s “Multi-ROI” feature allows simultaneous scanning of multiple regions of interest, boosting processing efficiency in complex inspection scenarios.
Enhanced connectivity:
Dual GPIO ports support hardware triggering (optically isolated) and strobe output synchronization with LED lighting systems. The A404K implements Basler’s “pylon” SDK for easy configuration, offering features like auto-exposure, LUT adjustments, and flat-field correction. Its <1.5 W power consumption (PoE mode) reduces thermal load in enclosed vision systems.
The camera’s robust aluminum housing achieves IP65-rated protection against dust and moisture. For harsh environments, optional lens heaters prevent condensation. The A404K supports 8/10/12-bit pixel formats and offers pixel binning modes (2×2) for enhanced sensitivity in low-light conditions.
Application Areas
The Basler A404K is widely deployed in automated optical inspection (AOI) systems requiring high spatial resolution. In electronics manufacturing, it verifies PCB component placement and solder joint quality. Automotive plants utilize it for robotic guidance during windshield installation, while pharmaceutical companies employ it for blister pack integrity checks.
Critical implementations include:
- Food packaging date/lot code verification
- Solar panel micro-crack detection
- Metal stamping tool wear analysis
- Textile fabric defect identification
- Logistics parcel dimension measurement
The camera’s NIR sensitivity (up to 1000 nm with optional filter) enables specialized applications like semiconductor wafer inspection. In agricultural sorting systems, the A404K differentiates produce ripeness using multispectral imaging techniques.
