Designed to provide a broader range of inspection capabilities, the Legend LS Line Scan vision system incorporates a Texas Instruments DSP processor and features a 2K linear sensor, yielding images up to 18,000 lines per second.

The Legend LS uses the vendor’s FrameWork 3.0 software. The Legend LS will have a major impact on two application areas: unwrapping cylindrical objects for label inspection and scanning an object to obtain a high resolution image, says the vendor. “Using an encoder feature in FrameWork 3.0, the Line Scan Legend LS will provide consistent sampling for a number of applications,” says Steve Gieseking, director of research and development at the vendor. “This machine vision system will run the full array of FrameWork tools, and in some cases, will be suitable for applications that formerly required a cluster of high-resolution cameras.”
