Overview of the OPT-BC50-W coaxial light
On reflective surfaces such as glass, wafers or polished metal, angled light easily causes glare and hides detail. The OPT-BC50-W coaxial light from the OPT-BC series by OPT Machine Vision sends light along the same optical axis as the camera, bringing out scratches and unevenness on reflective surfaces.
As a machine vision distribution partner in Vietnam, BeeVision supplies the genuine OPT-BC50-W together with matching controllers and accessories. Full figures are in the Specifications tab and the original catalog is in the Documents tab.
What is a coaxial light and how does it work
Light from the LED array passes through a diffuser to an angled beam splitter, which directs it down onto the object along the lens axis. Light reflected by the surface travels back up through the beam splitter into the camera. Flat areas reflect straight up and appear evenly bright; scratches and uneven areas deflect the light and appear dark, creating clear contrast.
According to OPT's section drawing, the light consists of a housing, heat sink, PCB, LEDs, diffuser, beam splitter and dustproof mirror.
Key features and benefits
- Excellent directional light: Suits long working distances and enhances image features.
