Matching the illuminated spot with LXV-HL
Selection

Matching the illuminated spot with LXV-HL

Spot matching involves edge falloff and central hotspots as well as diameter. Test at the actual working distance.

Checking full-width uniformity with LXV-4LINS
Selection

Checking full-width uniformity with LXV-4LINS

Sample the entire useful line at one exposure. Pay attention to ends, joins and mounting obstructions.

Collimated spot lighting in vial inspection
Selection

Collimated spot lighting in vial inspection

Separate vial-wall features from particles in liquid. Fix rotation and capture timing before comparing illumination arrangements.

Installation conditions for precision coaxial lighting
Selection

Installation conditions for precision coaxial lighting

Check the relative position of lens front, viewing aperture and part plane. Assembly offsets can create an uneven background.

Integrating LXV-3LINR into line-scan systems
Selection

Integrating LXV-3LINR into line-scan systems

Place the scan line inside the useful light band. Then check synchronisation and image proportions as speed changes.

Inspecting glass bottle walls, mouths and bases
Selection

Inspecting glass bottle walls, mouths and bases

Bottle walls, mouths and bases differ in curvature and thickness. Use appropriate views to prevent refracted highlights hiding defects.

Getting started with LuxMV vision lighting
Selection

Getting started with LuxMV vision lighting

Start with the target defect, material and cycle time. Select the lighting geometry before size, colour and controller.

Material screening with SWIR illumination
Selection

Material screening with SWIR illumination

Compare visible and SWIR captures side by side. Record actual changes in transmission, absorption and surface reflection.

Coin scratches, relief and lettering
Selection

Coin scratches, relief and lettering

Normal coin relief and scratches can both form bright lines. Compare good samples under several lighting directions.

Comparing light on wafers and chips
Selection

Comparing light on wafers and chips

Wafer marks, chip surfaces and edge chips may need different light paths. Compare coaxial and oblique illumination for each task.

Revealing scratches along the travel direction
Selection

Revealing scratches along the travel direction

A single line-light direction can weaken long travel-aligned scratches. Rotate the illumination and inspect scratch continuity.

Cooling and working distance with LXV-4LIN
Selection

Cooling and working distance with LXV-4LIN

Working distance changes both band width and sample brightness. Recheck thermal conditions and exposure margin after adjustment.

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.
