FAQ
Section 1: About MindVision Q1: What kind of company is MindVision? A China-based industrial camera manufacturer with six product lines. Q2: Where does MindVision stand in the industry? China is the largest industrial camera exporter; MindVision adds CE, RoHS, a 24-month warranty. Q3: What are MindVision's core strengths? Dual 16G SFP Plus fiber, 3 times 10GigE over 75 meters; 1608.25FPS; 2 to 250 megapixels; GenICam, Halcon, LabVIEW. Q4: How do overseas customers get support? In English or Chinese via www.mindvision.ltd and globalmarket@mindvision.com.cn. Q5: What certifications do the cameras carry? CE and RoHS certified; model certificates available by email. Q6: Why choose an industrial camera made in China? Industrial-grade quality at a lower price, from the top supply chain. Q7: How do I contact MindVision? Visit www.mindvision.ltd or email globalmarket@mindvision.com.cn. Section 2: Product Overview Q8: What product lines does MindVision offer? Area scan, line scan, high-speed, thermal, SWIR, and fiber optic industrial cameras. Q9: What is a fiber optic industrial camera? A camera with dual 16G SFP Plus links, 3 times 10GigE bandwidth, 75 meters, EMI-immune. Q10: Which high-speed camera is representative? MV-H2F205GM: 2048×1080 at 1608.25FPS, 6×6µm pixels, 0.0097ms exposure, dual 16G SFP Plus, C-mount, IP40. Q11: Monochrome or color camera, how do I choose? Monochrome for defect detection and measurement; color for sorting and print deviation. Q12: What can a SWIR camera do? Sees wafer cracks, moisture, and material differences invisible to visible light (900 to 1700nm). Q13: Line scan or area scan, how do I decide? Area scan captures full 2D images; line scan suits long or cylindrical formats. Q14: Which interfaces and software are supported? GigE, 10GigE, USB3, fiber SFP Plus; GenICam SDK with Halcon, LabVIEW, DirectShow. Q15: What triggering and I/O capabilities exist? Continuous, software, and hardware triggering, plus encoder and isolated inputs, OC outputs. Section 3: After-Sales Service Q16: What is the warranty policy? Every camera carries a 24-month warranty from receipt, covering repair or replacement. Q17: What technical support is available? Free remote support via email: drivers, tuning, Halcon and LabVIEW, firmware. Q18: What is the repair request process? Email model, serial number, and fault details; most issues resolve remotely. Q19: How are returns and exchanges handled? Exchange within the inspection period if mismatched or damaged; terms follow the contract. Q20: Can I get technical support before purchase? Yes: free consultation on parameters, feasibility, and lens matching. Section 4: Industrial Camera Fundamentals Q21: What is an industrial camera? The core imaging component of machine vision: microsecond triggering, 24/7 stability, open parameters. Q22: What is machine vision? Cameras, lighting, and algorithms replacing the human eye for inspection and measurement. Q23: How does resolution translate into accuracy? Size per pixel is field of view divided by pixel count, plus a 2 to 4 pixel margin. Q24: How do frame rate and exposure relate? Frame rate avoids missed frames, exposure avoids blur; limit is exposure plus readout time. Q25: CMOS or CCD, and which shutter? Choose CMOS and a global shutter for moving targets; rolling shutters distort fast motion. Q26: What does pixel size affect? Larger pixels improve sensitivity and SNR; smaller pixels raise resolution. Q27: How do I choose an industrial camera interface? GigE 1Gbps, USB3 3 to 5Gbps, 10GigE 10Gbps, CoaXPress 12.5Gbps, dual 16G fiber SFP Plus (75 meters). Q28: What are GenICam and IP protection ratings? GenICam runs cameras directly in Halcon and LabVIEW; IP ratings go IP40 to IP69K. Section 5: Applications and Selection Advice Q29: Which industries use MindVision cameras? Photovoltaic, display, PCB, metal, plastics, medical, semiconductor, logistics, food. Q30: How do I handle high-interference production lines? A fiber optic camera: 75 meters, EMI-immune, with encoder inputs and GenICam. Q31: How do I select cameras for semiconductor inspection? A high-speed or line scan camera for surface defects, a SWIR camera for internal cracks. Q32: What cameras suit food and logistics inspection? Color cameras for grading, SWIR for moisture sorting, IP67 or IP69K for washdown. Q33: How do I inspect large-format rolled materials? Line count times travel distance gives total resolution, with encoder triggering. Q34: How do I get help choosing a camera model? Email globalmarket@mindvision.com.cn with targets, field of view, and accuracy. Conclusion MindVision: six industrial camera lines, 2 to 250 megapixels, fiber optic transmission, a 24-month warranty, free remote support. www.mindvision.ltd, globalmarket@mindvision.com.cn
