industrial White Papers
Ruggedized Lens Metrology
The Ruggedized Lens Metrology Whitepaper discusses what the term Stability Ruggedized means and to what extent lenses that have been ruggedized can eliminate detrimental effects such as pixel shift that results from external shock and vibration placed on the imaging system. This whitepaper explains pixel shift and how it affects an imaging system, how Edmund Optics Stability Ruggedized lenses are designed to minimize the effect of pixel shift, and the metrology methods used to ensure that these...
5 Most Common Mistakes in Designing Precision Super Hard Components
Over nearly four decades, IRD has been manufacturing precision optical and non-optical components in super hard materials. Roughly 80% of the designs have benefited from IRD’s proprietary Design for Manufacturability (DFM) Review. During these...
Ordering Options: What Does Your Camera Need?
This paper covers how to best optimize a camera order to improve camera performance. The topics in this paper include: camera ordering options, removing cover glass, removing all the glass within the camera (including the optical window and cover...
Remote API
The Remote API is a means of communication between a controller and a laser marking engine using Ethernet or a serial cable. The controller can be a PLC, a PC, or any other device capable of transmitting commands using the protocol described herein....
CoaXPress 2.0 – The Standard in Industrial Image Processing for Demanding Applications
CoaXPress is a well-known interface for industrial image processing and it is coming soon in the new standard version 2.0 (CXP-12). The interface is particularly relevant for demanding applications especially whenever high data rates or short...
Maximizing Camera Performance with Filters
The use of filters allows a camera to be more selective with what kind of light will make contact with the sensor. Filters are often designed with the intent of blocking out a certain amount of light, whether this is a specific band of light (a set...
Optical Fiber Alignment
Minor losses in fiber couplings translate to large problems in data transmission. This paper discusses the alignment of optical fiber devices, the motion parameters that must be considered, the methods that are used to find the location of peak...
Joined Fast Together: e-Mobility and Laser Welding in Automotive Production
The future of the automobile is the subject of hot debate. China is the leading market for electric cars and US startups have completely changed the approach for building a car. Wherever the road leads, one thing is sure – the latest automotive...
Raman Spectroscopy in Crystallization
Two trends in the regulatory landscape have created new scientific opportunities and financial motivations for using process analytical technologies (PAT) in small molecule and biopharmaceutical manufacturing. One critical quality attribute of a...
Design Optimization & Sensitivity Analysis of Photonic Integrated Circuits
This paper covers the use of design and simulation software in the development of photonic integrated circuits (PICs). Using the workflow put forward in this paper, users can analyze their PIC layout in 3D to calculate scattering parameters and...
Behind the Scenes of Today's Imaging Process
Image processing has become so ingrained in everyday life that we often forget how quickly it has advanced over the last few decades. Today, we are able to snap photos and then rotate, crop, and apply various filters to the images directly on the...
How Does Prism Technology Help to Achieve Superior Color Imaging
Achieving superior image quality requires real and full color depth for every channel, improved color contrast and color differentiation, low inter-channel crosstalk and noise levels. These vital image quality factors can be achieved using the...
Slow Axis Collimators for Laser Diodes
Diode laser technology is advancing at a breathtaking pace as suppliers add new wavelengths and improve output power but still present one big challenge to the system designer: their output is inherently asymmetric. FISBA solves this with their...
Going Polarized - Polarization Adds A New Perspective To The Imaging Industry
In many machine vision applications the use of polarization cameras can provide information that cannot be obtained with standard monochrome, color, multi-spectral or hyperspectral cameras. In this White Paper, LUCID Vision Labs provides a deeper...
New Approach for High Reliability, Low Loss Splicing between Silica and ZBLAN Fibers
In the past decade, ZBLAN (ZrF4-BaF2-LaF3-NaF) fibers have drawn increasing interest for laser operations at wavelengths where Fused Silica-based (SiO2) fibers do not perform well. One limitation to the expansion of ZBLAN fiber lasers today is the...
The Most Important Camera Parameters for Aerial Imaging
Selecting components for an aerial imaging payload does not have to be complicated. Although the right camera choice is crucial for an aerial imaging system, the key to a success is to focus on the specifications that matter the most when imaging...
Beam Profiling: A Brief Review of Best Practices
Currently, lasers that vary widely in light wavelengths and beam powers are available for many scientific, industrial, and medical applications. This article reviews the components that comprise a laser beam profiler, and describes the methods of...
Daisy-chaining Data and Power to Reduce Cabling
Setting up motion control systems can be time consuming, costly, and complex. At Zaber, we focus on simplifying motion control. One way our systems can save you time and money is by reducing the number of cables required for a multi-axis system....
Designing a Vision System
There are a number of factors that need to be considered when designing a vision system, including: the hardware platform, the operating system, the software and API, and the very things that make the vision system “see” – the camera and its lens....
Reducing Production Waste with Laser Profiling and Characterization
A laser profiling system can characterize and identify which variables affect product quality and waste. But many laser users have never evaluated the quality of the beam beyond the initial delivery. This leads to frequent process adjustments to try...
Understanding Latency in Real-Time Imaging Applications
Imaging system designers rely on latency performance data to help determine how quickly a system can process, analyze and in some applications display images. Low latency enables higher-speed quality inspection, and is critical for applications such...
Beam Shaping Concepts for kW-class CW and QCW Diode Lasers
In this presentation, the beam shaping concepts developed at DILAS for high fill factor bars are presented. Starting from optical simulation and choice of optical elements the laser modules incorporating these bars are presented. The concepts...
DPAL Pump System Exceeding 3kW at 766nm and 30 GHz Bandwidth
Due to their low quantum defect, diode pumped alkali metal vapor lasers (DPALs) offer the promise of scalability to very high average power levels while maintaining excellent beam quality. Research on DPALs has progressed to ever increasing power...
Multi-kW High-Brightness Fiber Coupled Diode Laser Based on Two Dimensional Stacked Tailored Diode Bars
We have developed a scalable and modular diode laser architecture that fulfills these requirements through use of a simple beam shaping concept based on two dimensional stacking of tailored diode bars mounted on specially designed, tap water cooled...
How can I find the right digital camera for my microscopy application?
Nowadays, image processing is found in a wide range of optical microscopy applications. Examples for this are medical and biological research, diagnostics, testing of medicinal products, or material sciences. Microscopy cameras are an important...
