Product Description:

The VSS112R21.M51P-000 belongs to the VS Smart Sensors series from B and R Automation. It serves as an integrated machine-vision smart sensor for automated inspection tasks in industrial environments. The compact S-mount housing combines imaging optics, illumination, and onboard processing, allowing one active vision function to run without an external PC. Inspection results can then be forwarded directly to a PLC for machine response.

Computation is handled by a Cortex A9 i.MX6 dual core processor running at 800 MHz. Paired with 1 GB of DDR3 RAM and a 512 kB L2 cache, the platform supports image preprocessing while keeping cycle times predictable. The dual-core design also separates communication tasks from vision routines, which helps maintain stable throughput during repetitive inspection work.

The optical system uses a 12 mm F4 macro lens with a 37° field of view and protective anti-reflective glass. A global-shutter sensor captures up to 90 fps at 1.3 MP, which supports fast part tracking without the motion blur common in rolling-shutter designs. Illumination comes from 16 LEDs arranged in four multicolored segments, distributing R, B, IR, or white light evenly across the target for area imaging.

Wake Industrial offers a 1-year warranty on each sensor and can arrange same-day shipping for urgent orders. The chat tool available on the website can be used for questions about error codes or general specifications. This smart sensor fits compact inspection stations where integrated vision hardware reduces cabinet space, simplifies wiring, and shortens commissioning compared with PC-based imaging setups in practice.
