Product Description:

The VSS112F21.043P-000 smart sensor is built by B&R Automation for the VS Smart Sensors series. It combines optics, white LED illumination, and onboard processing in an IP-rated enclosure with an S-mount interface. In automated inspection cells, it performs one active vision task such as presence verification, dimension checking, or code decoding without requiring a separate industrial PC or frame grabber.

Its processing platform uses a Cortex A9 i.MX6 running at 800 MHz. With 2 cores, 512 kB of L2 cache, and 1 GB of DDR3 RAM, the unit can handle image filtering, blob analysis, and result formatting inside the housing. A global-shutter imager with 1.3 MP resolution supports clear image capture so edges and printed characters can be evaluated before data is sent to the automation network. This local processing reduces network load and shortens response time in fast inspection sequences on production lines.

Capture speed reaches 90 fps, which supports multi-image bursts and helps maintain accuracy on moving conveyors. The factory-aligned lens has an 8 mm focal length, and the optical system provides an effective 37° field of view for work distances of about 100 to 300 mm. A ring of 16 LEDs with type-2 diffused optics produces white light, while segment control allows bright-field, dark-field, or asymmetrical illumination for low-contrast targets.

Wake Industrial stocks this smart sensor for immediate order fulfillment. Same-day shipping options can be arranged on qualifying orders. Quotations for this unit remain valid for 30 days, which helps purchasing teams plan replacement or project timing.
