Product Description:

The VSS112Q31.071P-000 is a smart vision sensor produced by B&R Automation within the VS Smart Sensors series. Integrated directly on the machine, it performs autonomous inspection tasks and sends pass-fail results to PLCs without requiring an external vision PC. Its compact housing combines processing hardware, optics, and multicolored lighting, which helps reduce panel space and simplifies use in industrial automation environments for technicians.

At its core is a dual-core ARM platform running at 800 MHz. The Cortex A9 i.MX6 dual core processor works with 1 GB of DDR3 memory to handle real-time image preprocessing while keeping decision latency low. An image rate of 90 fps supports fast conveyors, and the 1.3 MP resolution provides enough detail for code reading, presence checks, and basic feature verification.

The sensor uses an S-mount and a fixed 25 mm lens that narrows the viewing angle to 23 degrees for more concentrated imaging. Lighting comes from 16 LEDs arranged in four segments, and the R/G/B/Lime emitters help the unit adapt to reflective or low-contrast targets. Anti-reflective front glass improves contrast, and the standard preprocessing variant helps maintain predictable inspection timing during operation.

Wake Industrial stocks this sensor and offers same-day shipping options for facilities that need a fast replacement. Quotations remain valid for 30 days, which can help purchasing teams complete approval steps and compare budgets before issuing a purchase order. The chat tool available on the website can be used for general questions about type codes or fault codes when quick clarification is needed.
