Product Description:

The VSS112Q21.M51P-000 smart sensor is manufactured by B&R Automation for the VS Smart Sensors series. It is designed for integrated machine vision tasks such as part inspection, assembly verification, and robot guidance on automated lines. By combining optics, lighting, and onboard processing in one housing, the unit operates near the process without requiring an external controller.

In the standard variant, preprocessing is handled by a Cortex A9 i.MX6 dual core processor running at 800 MHz. The platform uses 1 GB of RAM, which supports one active vision function at line speed without relying on separate computing hardware. Image capture is based on a CMOS sensor with 1.3 MP resolution, making the device suitable for area inspection, barcode reading, and dimensional checks. The design is intended for area-based imaging rather than line-scan operation.

Optical hardware uses a 12 mm F4 1/1.8 inch macro lens with a field of view of 37°, and the lens mounts through an S-mount interface for easy replacement. The front glass includes an anti-reflective coating that helps control glare during imaging. Illumination comes from 16 LEDs arranged in four multicolored segments, supplying red, green, blue, and lime light for flexible contrast control. Continuous capture at 90 fps helps the sensor keep pace with fast conveyors and repetitive inspection cycles.

Wake Industrial stocks this sensor and can arrange same-day shipping when required. The chat tool available on the website can be used for general questions about error codes, type codes, or specifications. This is useful when downtime matters.
