TC16M series telecentric lenses have been specifically designed to fit 45 mm format (36 x 24 mm) detectors with very high resolution, such as 11, 16 or 29 MP.

This combination is the typical choice for extremely accurate measurement of large items such as engine parts, glass or metal sheets, PCBs and electronic components, LCDs, etc.

TC16M lenses are also perfectly suitable for 4kpx and 8kpx linescan cameras and can be successfully used to determine the diameter of cylindrical objects: for example shafts, turned metal parts, machine tools, etc.

Besides the standard F and M58x0.75 mount options, any other mechanical interface can be supplied upon request

KEY ADVANTAGES

Wide image circle for large detectors up to 43.3 mm.
Excellent resolution and low distortion
Simple and robust design for industrial environments
Detailed test report with certified optical parameters

Which telecentric lens is right for my application?

It depends on your detector resolution and the size of the sample to be inspected: our telecentric selection form will guide you through all the possible sample/lens/detector combinations.

New M58x0.75 mount option now available (-Q).

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.
Working F/#: the real F/# of a lens when used as a macro. Lenses with smaller apertures can be supplied on request.
Maximum slope of chief rays inside the lens: when converted to milliradians, it gives the maximum measurement error for any millimeter of object displacement. Typical (average production) values and maximum (guaranteed) values are listed.
Percent deviation of the real image compared to an ideal, undistorted image: typical (average production) values and maximum (guaranteed) values are listed.
At the borders of the field depth the image can be still used for measurement but, to get a very sharp image, only half of the nominal field depth should be considered. Pixel size used for calculation is 5.5 μm.
FD stands for Flange Distance (in mm), defined as the distance from the mounting flange (the “metal ring” in rear part of the lens) to the camera detector plane.
Indicates the availability of an integrated camera phase adjustment feature.
Measured from the front end of the mechanics to the camera flange.
