    The Legend 510 offers low-cost machine vision for inspection and assembly.

    According to the creator DVT Corp., Duluth, Ga. (www.dvtsensors.com), the Legend 510 SmartImage camera system has enough power for machine-vision inspections.

    The unit is streamlined to offer the inspection features of the company's Legend series cameras without reader capabilities. It operates with DVT Windows-based Framework software and includes integrated ring lights, Ethernet compatibility, and 640 3 480-pixel resolution.

    Recent field tests by Gibson Engineering, Norwood, Mass. (www.gibsonengineering.com), showed the Legend 510 could measure small round parts within 0.1° in static tests and 0.18° in dynamic tests. The system also guided a robot to precisely pick-and-place the parts in an assembly.

    Part-inspection speed is said to be on a par with CCD cameras. Typical uses include inspecting presence or absence of parts in an assembly or features in a part, as well as counting and sorting parts in packaging, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, automotive, and other applications.
