Request InfoJos. Schneider Optische Werke GmbH, Industrial SolutionsJos. Schneider Optische Werke GmbH has introduced its Xenoplan and Cinegon compact C-mount lenses for use with high-resolution megapixel CCD and CMOS cameras in machine vision applications. Built-in filter threads that simplify filter mounting have been added to lenses having focal lengths from 4.8 to 50 mm and featuring image circles with 2/3- or 1-in. formats and measuring up to 22 mm diagonally. An enhanced-precision iris improves control of gray-scale calibration, and a focus mechanism enables fine-focus adjustment and locking without backlash. The lenses have a broadband antireflection...See full productRelated content from Photonics MediaPRODUCTSPhotonics.com 7/26/2022Optical MountsThe E-Series of Adjustable Size Kinematic Optical Mounts from Edmund Optics Inc. can be used for mounting a wide range of round, rectangular, and square optical components, including round and...Promoted Content September 2022 IssueC-Mount LensesThis JADE family of C-Mount Lenses covers a 1.2-in. format (19.3-mm image circle) with a broadband antireflection coating that allows transmission from 400 to 1000 nm.
