LXV-2LFX flat diffuse illumination
Selection

LXV-2LFX flat diffuse illumination

Check for a dark area near the viewing aperture. Compare centre and edge behaviour using reflective samples.

Output geometries for fibre illumination
Selection

Output geometries for fibre illumination

Line, ring and spot fibre heads produce different coverage. Choose by inspection area as well as interface compatibility.

Read article
High-intensity line lighting and short exposures
Selection

High-intensity line lighting and short exposures

Short exposures limit motion blur. Validate speed, pixel scale and trigger delay rather than simply increasing brightness.

Choosing lighting for automotive parts
Selection

Choosing lighting for automotive parts

Group automotive parts by finish, assembly position and inspection target. Include oil, colour and incoming-part variation.

Optical lens surfaces and outlines
Selection

Optical lens surfaces and outlines

Lens-surface defects and outline measurement need different light paths. Define whether the task concerns scratches, thickness or edge position.

Read article
Selecting fibre illuminators and light guides
Selection

Selecting fibre illuminators and light guides

Guide length, bending and coupling losses affect output. Verify brightness and uniformity in the final installed configuration.

Read article
Planning lighting for battery inspection
Selection

Planning lighting for battery inspection

Plan separate lighting evaluations for tabs, welds, adhesive and wrapping. One arrangement need not suit every battery surface.

Read article
LXV-ML focused spot illumination
Selection

LXV-ML focused spot illumination

The focused spot should cover the target without excessive concentration. Check for local saturation when part height changes.

Read article
Corner coverage with square ring lighting
Selection

Corner coverage with square ring lighting

Check incidence on straight edges and all four corners separately. Correct centre exposure can still leave corner highlights.

Read article
LED chip defects and substrate colour variation
Selection

LED chip defects and substrate colour variation

Evaluate LED-chip brightness and substrate colour separately. Distinguish true defects from colour variation and position shifts.

Read article
Grating coaxial line light on reflective surfaces
Selection

Grating coaxial line light on reflective surfaces

Establish a stable grating image before interpreting surface changes. The projected pattern itself must not become a false defect.

LXV-3DPC digital brightness control
Selection

LXV-3DPC digital brightness control

Save channel values and trigger mode for each station. Verify that identical settings are reproduced after restarting.

Questions

What questions help frame the discussion?

What can I find in the LuxMV article library?

The library contains machine vision lighting notes, selection guidance, inspection application examples, controller integration topics, and company updates.

Can an article replace sample testing?

No. Articles provide selection context; final lighting choices work well when compared with the actual workpiece, camera, lens, and production conditions.
