IDS ENSENSO S SERIES Alternatives & Competitors

SOLOMON vision's Solscan offers an advanced 3D scanning solution designed for tailored industrial automation applications. Utilizing structured light technology, it excels in generating accurate and high-quality point clouds. This makes Solscan a versatile choice for system integrators, machine builders, and industrial users looking to customize 3D applications to their specific requirements.

Key Advantages:

1. Rapid Scanning: Solscan's remarkable scanning speed of around 1.5 seconds, combined with its six-axis configurations, ensures the capture of comprehensive and precise data, enabling efficient and effective scanning processes.

2. Dual Camera: The incorporation of two built-in 2D cameras guarantees continuous monitoring, minimizing potential errors caused by overlapping objects. This feature enhances the accuracy and dependability of the 3D scanning procedure.

3. Color Functionality: Equipped with high-quality RGB cameras, Solscan is particularly effective for tasks involving color differentiation. This capability is invaluable for applications where color-based object identification is critical, adding to the versatility of the system.

The Ensenso N-Series is designed specifically for use in rough environmental conditions. Thanks to its compact design, the N-Series is equally suitable for 3D detection of moving and stationary objects in a space-saving stationary or mobile application on a robot arm. Even under difficult lighting conditions, the integrated projector projects a high-contrast texture onto the object using a pattern mask with a random dot pattern, thus filing in the structures that are not present or only weakly present on the object's surface. All cameras are pre-calibrated and therefore easy to set up.

Industrial suitability
The lockable GPIO connectors for trigger and flash also make all models suitable for industrial use. For particularly high demands on robustness, both Ensenso N30 and Ensenso N40 3D camera series are available with IP65/67 protection class and thus protected against dirt, dust, splash water or cleaning agents.

Lightweight and cost-optimised - the N40 series
The completely decoupled 3D stereo electronics of the new N40 series allows the use of a lightweight plastic composite as housing material, which makes it possible to manufacture the 3D camera family more cost-effectively.

The reduced weight also makes Ensenso N40 models applicable to collaborative robotic arms, whose driving forces are limited to protect the human colleague. The haptics of the plastic surface and rounded edges also help to minimise injuries.

For highest demands - the N30 series
The aluminium housing of the N30 models ensures optimum heat dissipation of the electronic components and thus a stable light output even under extreme environmental conditions. This ensures the consistently high quality and robustness of the 3D data.

The metal construction also allows a very flexible and robust mounting of the CMOS sensors with vergence angles of 2° to 10°, which makes it possible to realise application scenarios with very short object distances.
