BAUMER CAMERAS WITH INTEGRATED COOLING PIPE WIN INSPECT AWARD 2023
The CX camera with integrated cooling pipe currently ranks among the best innovations in industrial image processing.
Baumer strives to find new ways in order to offer customers measurable added value. A current example of industrial image processing is the industrial camera of the CX series with an integrated cooling pipe. So far, in high-temperature environments, the camera housing has been embedded in external cooling components to ensure constant camera temperature. Such effort is time-consuming and adds to camera dimensions. To counteract this drawback, Baumer has extended the CX series with cameras with integrated cooling. The patented cooling pipe of the CX.XC cameras space-savingly winds its way inside the camera housing to ensure thermal stability within an instant.
Integrated cooling pipe to ensure continuously low camera temperature
Unlike external cooling from outside of the housing, the integrated cooling pipe dissipates the heat exactly where it is generated: close to sensor and lens. Thanks to effective heat dissipation, the CX.XC cameras acquire images at very low noise and reduced pixel errors. Cooling via an integrated channel utilizes compressed air (2 to 3 bar) or liquids such as water (up to 6 bar). Further to semiconductor production, further application examples for the Baumer cameras with integrated cooling channel are industries where excessive ambient temperatures prevail: glass and metal processing, large bakeries and many more. The CX.XC cameras deliver reliable image data even at up to 65 degrees Celsius present at the housing.
At the upcoming SPS in Nuremberg, the camera will be awarded the Silver inspect award 2023 in the Vision category.
