1. Highway bayonet system

The traditional camera may blur or distort the image due to the movement of high-speed vehicles when passing by, but the Sterway array sensor series can capture the entire image data in the same time period to avoid the image blur caused by motion. In addition, the area array CMOS image sensor has high-speed image acquisition capability, which can realize fast high-definition image acquisition and processing, thus improving the accuracy and speed of vehicle identification. This technical advantage helps solve the problem of image recognition in the process of fast vehicle passing, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of data acquisition at the bayonet.

LA linear array image sensor series: Comprehensive machine vision support to help the industry fine inspection

Industrial linear array application panoramic analysis

The transformation and upgrading of the manufacturing industry has brought a huge demand for high-end industrial cameras. With deep technical support, Steway has made rapid efforts since the first launch of the linear array image sensor SC430LA in 2022, achieving a new breakthrough in the application of machine vision in the field of high-end industrial applications. At present, the Steway LA line array series has grown into an important engine for the continuous development of Steway, covering 4K, 8K, 16K high resolution. This series of products is based on the unique SmartClarity®-3 technology, combined with the newly upgraded BSI pixel process and mask splicing technology, using the excellent analog circuit design of Steway, with high resolution, high QE, low energy consumption, high line frequency four characteristics, can greatly improve the detection capability of high-end industrial linear camera applications. 24/7 high-quality image capture to ensure inspection efficiency and reliability.

It is highly compatible with the following three industrial scenarios:

1. New energy photovoltaic panel detection

One of the main difficulties in the detection of new energy photovoltaic panels is the need to accurately detect defects in solar photovoltaic panels, such as surface defects or anomalies in the production process. These panels typically have large areas and require high-resolution and high-speed imaging techniques to achieve accurate defect detection. In addition, during the inspection process, it is necessary to ensure the surface smoothness and consistency of the photovoltaic panel to ensure its efficiency and performance in practical applications. The LA Line Array series provides high-speed, high-definition scanning of solar photovoltaic panels to capture subtle imperfections and anomalies by providing ultra-high-resolution imaging capabilities. Its linear imaging structure enables continuous and coherent capture of image data during panel scanning, ensuring comprehensive inspection of photovoltaic panels.

2. Electric vehicle and energy storage lithium battery film detection

There are some challenges in the detection of thin films for electric vehicles and lithium battery storage. These films need to be inspected with high precision to ensure their surface smoothness and flawlessness. Because thin films often have extremely fine features and large areas, traditional imaging techniques are difficult to accurately capture subtle defects, such as bubbles, stains, or foreign bodies. With their superior sensitivity and low noise performance, LA linear array products capture images continuously and seamlessly, providing comprehensive inspection coverage to help ensure product quality and improve production efficiency.

3. Intelligent manufacturing line quality inspection

There are some challenges in the quality inspection of intelligent manufacturing line. These lines require efficient, high-precision quality monitoring to ensure product consistency and high quality. However, traditional imaging techniques are often unable to meet the needs of high-speed assembly lines and can not accurately capture subtle flaws and defects on the assembly line. The Sterway LA line array series enables high frequency image acquisition and accurate detection of surface defects such as blemishes, foreign objects or damage. Its high-performance imaging function helps to realize real-time monitoring and quality control of the assembly line, and improve the accuracy and efficiency of product manufacturing.
