What inspection variables should be evaluated?
Start with the target defect, material and cycle time. Select the lighting geometry before size, colour and controller.
What lighting geometry fits this inspection task?
Break the task into observable features such as outline, surface, lettering or colour before choosing illumination. Camera, lens, light, motion and processing work together; more brightness alone may not improve recognition.
Prepare good parts covering normal variation and confirmed defective samples. Compare lighting directions under controlled exposure. Record difficult defects and textures that cause false detections, then validate at the real cycle time. Base the selection on representative conditions rather than a single ideal image.

Before choosing a configuration?
For selection, specify the field of view, smallest target feature, height variation, cycle time and installation space. Use the specific product page and drawing to verify electrical ratings, dimensions and compatibility.
Defining a useful lighting trial?
Begin with the feature to detect, the smallest relevant size and the acceptable variation in good parts. Select samples that represent both normal production and known faults. Choose camera geometry before comparing light families.
Change one variable at a time: direction, source size, colour or exposure. Record the result and keep a baseline image. Select a configuration by repeatable contrast and installation feasibility rather than maximum brightness alone.
