Product Description:

The VSS112Q25.051P-000 is a machine-vision smart sensor produced by B&R Automation within the VS Smart Sensors series. It combines optics, lighting, and processing in one housing, allowing equipment builders to add code reading, presence checks, or basic gauging without a separate industrial PC. Local execution of vision logic shortens inspection latency and reduces network traffic inside automated cells. This helps keep machine communication loads lower.

A Cortex A9 i.MX6 CPU runs at 800 MHz, and its 2 cores split image capture from analysis so cycle times remain stable during repeated inspections. An 512 kB L2 cache reduces external memory access when filters or thresholding routines are applied. The built-in 1 GB RAM can hold burst image sequences and statistical data, which helps the sensor maintain its licensed vision function without dropped frames. This standard preprocessing variant fits mid-range inspection duties on packaging and assembly equipment.

The global-shutter imager captures 5.3 MP images at up to 43 fps, supporting accurate feature extraction on moderately fast conveyors. A fixed optical path provides a 37° field of view through a 12 mm F4 lens in an S-mount, giving useful coverage at typical working distances. For illumination, 16 LEDs arranged in four RGB-lime segments allow selectable white, monochrome, or colored lighting profiles for both area and line-sensor tasks.

Wake Industrial supplies a 1-year warranty with every unit. Same-day shipping is available on qualifying orders. The chat tool available on the website can be used for general questions about type codes or fault indications.
