LEDs are current driven devices and current control from the LED power supply is essential for precise intensity control. The Gardasoft LED Lighting Controller range offers precise current control (strobe, pulse or continuous control) to ensure stable and repeatable illumination for Machine Vision Lighting and Image recognition systems.
Available in 1, 2, 4, 8 and 16 channel modules, the Gardasoft range of LED Lighting Controllers allows the user to precisely control an LED light module on each channel.
Each channel is controlled independently, with either continuous output or strobing of the light, with timing control down to 1µS on selected models so fast moving objects can be 'frozen' when imaged. Gardasoft's patented SafeSense™ allows the LEDs to be overdriven safely, protecting the LEDs whilst optimising the amount of light produced. The Gardasoft White Paper "Practical Use of Lighting Controllers" a useful reference in obtaining maximum performance for Machine Vision illumination and is available in English, German and Chinese.
The Gardasoft Series of LED Controllers provide high precision control of LED Lighting for Machine Vision applications. They include the power regulation, intensity control, timing and triggering functions required for Machine Vision systems and utilise Gardasoft's SafePowerTM and SafeSenseTM patented technology. The TR-HT Series are the industry's most powerful LED Lighting Controllers with 150W per channel (50A pulsed, 5A continuous).
Gardasoft TR Series LED Controllers are a core component of a triniti Intelligent Lighting system. triniti is a new enabling technology from Gardasoft, which provides expert control, operational intelligence and full integration of Machine Vision lighting – all within a 'plug & play' environment.
The CC320 Series provides an easy and complete working solution for accurate timing of component sensing, camera triggering and reject gates. Timing can be based on precise delays or on exact conveyor belt travel using an encoder.
The RTCC4 combines all the features of the Gardasoft RT Series with the timing functionality of the CC320. The combination provides a high level of integration in Machine Vision systems - saving complexity, space and costs.
OLED panels have many benefits in machine vision applications because they give an exceptionally stable and uniform light intensity across the width of the panel. They are also very thin and can be moulded into complex shapes. However, OLED lights are challenging to control because the physical properties inherent in OLED panels demand sophisticated drive techniques to obtain fast and accurate pulsing.
