Fast mono fiber scanning with 2-TDI

Mono 4096 × 2 acquisition at 195 kHz in 1-Line mode is the core position of MV-CL042-91FM. Its CMOS line uses 7 × 7 µm pixels and can switch to 2-TDI at 100 kHz. Image data passes through an LC fiber connector, exposure covers 3 µs to 10 ms, and selectable gain steps of 1.0×, 1.4×, 1.6×, 2.4× and 3.2× provide adjustment for the optical setup.

The high 1-Line rate supports moving-surface inspection where travel-direction sampling is the limiting factor, while 2-TDI offers a different acquisition arrangement at the same 4096-pixel line length. The 12-pin P10 connection combines power with four configurable I/O lines and supports single-ended or differential timing. This allows fiber data transport to remain separate from encoder or machine-control signals.

MV-CL042-91FC shares the LC fiber link, 4096 × 2 geometry and 7 µm pitch, but records color and reaches 100 kHz rather than 195 kHz. MV-CL042-91CM-V2 reaches the same 195 kHz mono ceiling through 80-bit Camera Link in a shorter 36.9 mm body. MV-CL082-91F1M extends fiber-linked mono capture to an 8192-pixel line, running at 146 kHz in 1-Line mode when cross-web sampling has priority over peak rate.

Selection and applications

Fast 4K mono fiber inspection. 2-TDI line acquisition. Encoder-linked scanning at 195 kHz.

Minimum kit: Use the MV-CL042-91FM, an M42*1.0 line-scan lens or adapted F-mount lens, an LC fiber cable and receiver, and a 12 V DC to 24 V DC supply on the 12-pin P10 connector.

Nearby in the range: MV-CL042-91FC — Prefer it when the fiber-linked 4096 × 2 task requires color; MV-CL042-91CM-V2 — Prefer it for a 195 kHz mono ceiling over Camera Link; MV-CL082-91F1M — Prefer it when an 8192-pixel mono line is more important than 195 kHz.

FAQ

How do the 1-Line and 2-TDI rates differ on MV-CL042-91FM?

The camera reaches 195 kHz in 1-Line mode and 100 kHz in 2-TDI. Both modes use the 4096 × 2 mono CMOS array, so mode selection should follow the illumination and line-timing arrangement as well as the required travel-direction sampling.

What must the lens cover on the MV-CL042-91FM sensor?

MV-CL042-91FM has an M42*1.0 mount, a 12 mm flange focal length and 4096 pixels at a 7 µm pitch. An F-mount lens can be fitted through an adapter, with image-circle coverage and resolving ability matched to that line.

Which connector carries control and power for MV-CL042-91FM?

A 12-pin P10 connector carries 12 V DC to 24 V DC power and four configurable input/output lines. Those lines accept single-ended or differential signals. Typical camera consumption is 8.8 W at 12 V DC; image data uses the separate LC fiber connection.

Can MV-CL042-91FM operate below freezing in a protected station?

Yes. Its working range extends from -20 °C to 55 °C, with 5% RH to 90% RH without condensation. Storage spans -30 °C to 80 °C. The IP40 rating assumes proper lens installation and wiring and does not provide liquid sealing.

How does MV-CL042-91FM compare with MV-CL042-91CM-V2?

Both are 4096 × 2 mono models with 7 µm pixels and a 195 kHz top rate. MV-CL042-91FM uses an LC fiber connector and supports 2-TDI at 100 kHz; MV-CL042-91CM-V2 reaches 195 kHz in 80-bit Camera Link operation.
