UV cameras see what remains hidden from our eyes

ultraviolet cameras let you see what is hidden. This enables many unique applications, including sorting plastics, wafer surface inspection, solar cell inspection, and inspecting security features.

UV spectrum

Capturing images in the invisible light spectrum with wavelengths from 0.2 µm to 0.4 µm

High sensitivity

Thanks to the Sony IMX487 Pregius S UV sensor with 8.1 MP resolution, global shutter, and back side illumination

Small design

Easy to design in thanks to its compact 29 mm x 29 mm housing

UV accessories

Large selection of UV components suitable for ultraviolet applications

Typical fields of application in the UV spectral range

Wafer inspection

Effective inspection of wafer material, even below the visibility limit, includes surface inspection. Here, UV cameras offer the possibility of capturing even finer features and structures, as they achieve even higher resolutions in the short-wave UV range.

Material sorting

Glass and plastics such as PVC, PET, PMMA, and PC each have different levels of UV light transmission. They can therefore be differentiated based on their optical properties and be sorted during recycling, for example.

Security check

During the production and inspection of banknotes and ID documents, security features under the surface can be checked for errors or forgeries. The inspection of special printing inks is also possible in the UV spectrum.

Solar inspection

Scratches or cracks on the surface of solar systems must be detected early on in the process chain. UV cameras help to automate production processes and quality controls for testing everything from individual silicon blocks to complete photovoltaic cells.

Unique Beyond features

The UV camera is equipped with an extensive feature set for maximum performance: Compression Beyond and Pixel Beyond are unique in-camera features for more efficient bandwidth use and more flexible scalability of pixel sizes.
