PCMP optics are 3D, multi-image lenses designed to completely measure and inspect objects whose dimensions range from 1 to 10 mm, such as electronic components, solder paste and micromechanical components. Six different lateral views are provided by an array of mirrors interfaced to a bi-telecentric lens; the top of the object is directly imaged at the center of the field of view.

The lateral views feature exactly the same magnification and the images remain in perfect focus even when the object is displaced from its nominal position. All the views can be used to precisely measure the dimension of components from different angles.

The PCMP series integrates LED illumination optimized for this specific assembly.

KEY ADVANTAGES

Small parts lateral imaging
Inspection of objects whose size ranges from 1 to 10 mm.
Measurement capability
Top and lateral views show the same magnification.
High field depth
Top and Lateral views are imaged without significant defocusing.

Custom features

- different number of views
- different view angles
- asymmetric or special mirror arrays
can be supplied upon request.

DO NOTE

Camera phase adjustment feature is available upon request

Notes

Working distance: distance between the front end of the mechanics and the object. Set this distance within +/- 3% of the nominal value for maximum resolution and minimum distortion.
F/# = F-number, wF/# = working F-number, the real F-number of a lens when used as a macro.

Frequently asked questions

Glossary

The suggested working distance ranges from 1.5 to 5 mm. The best focusing can be achieved by adjusting the number of spacers in the C-mount interface or by vertically positioning the illuminator+mirror assembly.

The image orientation phase can be adjusted by simply rotating the mirror cage or the whole assembly.

The top and side views show exactly the same magnification; however the side views appear to be compressed because of the perspective angle. Thanks to telecentric imaging such compression is purely linear and therefore very easy to calibrate.
