The I20 offers four different lens options that make it easy to quickly alter the field of view based on the type of application. In addition, the I/O extension module enables users to program up to 19 outputs. These additional outputs, along with the Inspector’s ability to logically combine detailed inspection tools, provide improved confirmation on pass/fail inspections. The I20’s increased flexibility allows for more precise analysis of parts – no matter what angle or orientation a product comes down the line.
