Why are Line Scan Cameras Needed?

Customers use line scan cameras for many reasons and in various scenarios. In summary, there are primarily three factors:

Characteristics of the target object: Moving, infinitely long objects, such as fabrics, steel strips, film materials, and paper. Products of varying sizes, colors, and distributions on conveyor belts: fruits and vegetables, ores, metal parts, etc. Cylindrical objects: beverage cans, roller devices.

High requirements for light uniformity: Line scan light sources achieve more uniform illumination than area scan light sources.

Cost considerations: 1 line scan camera vs. multiple area scan cameras: Lower cost, easier deployment.

Line scan cameras vs. high-resolution area scan cameras: Lower cost. For example, in the high-resolution flat panel inspection industry, using high-resolution area scan cameras is very expensive, whereas using line scan cameras can significantly reduce costs. Furthermore, the physical characteristics of screens are well-suited for line scan cameras: uniform length and width. A single top-to-bottom scan with
