CCD and CMOS Cameras with GigE Vision®, CameraLink® and FireWire™

Excellent image quality and high frame rates, plus a camera design which enables rapid and flexible integration – Baumer's digital cameras are developed especially for demanding tasks. Our portfolio includes matrix cameras in color and monochrome versions as well as resolution ranging from VGA to 8 megapixels. The cameras are based on innovative technologies such as CCD and CMOS and include all relevant standard interfaces (GigE Vision®, CameraLink® and FireWire™).

VeriSens® vision sensors for automation technology

VeriSens® is a compact image processing system in the shape of a sensor. Typical applications among many others are packaging and quality assurance. As a true inline solution, different product attributes can be easily verified directly after a manufacturing step. Thus, not conforming products can be sorted out immediately. Flexibility and versatility of image based part verification is a must for many users today. The ideal component is VeriSens®. As a complete image processing system, it includes all necessary hardware and software. It can be intuitively configured using a PC.

A high-quality image processing system consists of more than just a camera:
cables, socket connectors, PCI interface cards, adapters, stands, lenses and lighting. But no matter how good the components are – if they are not perfectly tuned to each other, the entire image processing system is at risk.

Baumer can help you here and provide security. Because with us you are single-sourcing everything: fully tuned compatible hardware for each interface – already tested, established that it works then recommended to you.

At Baumer you will find everything you need to develop cameras and vision sensors into individual, complex and high-performance image processing systems.

Electronically or mechanically – counting and display of qualitative and quantitative production data are performed thousands of times by our proven counters.

We offer the ideal solution for force and strain measurement in machine and plant construction – statically and dynamically with high-quality signal processing.

Inclination sensors are like electronic "water levels" – and their importance is increasing. We make a substantial contribution to increasing safety in automation.

Based on the Ferraris principle, they analyze the dynamic behavior of a drive system. Robust and reliable.

Reducing setup times, avoiding adjustment errors and lowering reject rates with Baumer solutions – crucial for machine construction.

Machinery is as varied as our overall portfolio, which features a vast number of products and product variants.

Large-scale plants in major industries. Baumer's wide and comprehensive portfolio offers distinct advantages here.

Every gear has to mesh perfectly – not only in a figurative sense.

Railed vehicles, heavy vehicles, cranes and heavy lifting equipment. Tough demands - harsh environments. We have a solution for both.

To optimize wind turbine efficiency, the rotor speed is adapted to the current wind conditions. When the system is shut down for maintenance, the current position of the rotor must also be readily available.

For more than 20 years Baumer has consistently relied on absolute encoders with contact-free multi-turn sensing systems which have stood the test thousands of times as the optimum solution for nacelle adjustment in wind turbines.

As one of the world's leading manufacturers of absolute encoders, Baumer has been active in the wind power industry for more than 15 years.

Speed measurement at the generator with maximum robustness and precision – heavy-duty encoders from Baumer Hübner, formerly Hübner Berlin, reliably ensure optimum control quality during input to network.

If the plant's operation is to be interrupted, maybe for a maintenance cycle, the blades are turned out of the wind and brought to a halt. Inductive sensors reliably detect the piston position in the locking cylinder and the stop position of the hydraulic pitch system.

Tower and blades of a wind power station are permanently exposed to heavy loads. The Baumer strain sensors, Vision Systems or measuring inductive sensors monitor the loads on tower and blades and provide a cost-efficient long-term solution that allows for predictive and preventive maintenance techniques to reduce downtimes and optimize yield and improves safety.

The enormous load impacts on the blades are directly transmitted to the hub and consequently to the main bearing. In gearless plants, asymmetric strain may reduce the air gap between rotating shaft and nacelle. Measuring inductive sensors monitor the air gap tolerances at the respective critical points and allow for balancing the load.

Gear components are often the cause for unscheduled maintenance measures in wind power stations. Baumer level monitoring sensors are installed straight at the gearbox or oil pan for equipment state monitoring to enable maintenance cycle scheduling early on. Leakage sensors are attached to the base of the oil pain and reliably detect even the smallest amounts of fluid.

Wind power plants employ disk brakes in many different places. Robust and accurate inductive sensors permanently monitor the disk pads and will give a warning early on prior to the pads having been consumed. This allows for predictive maintenance cycles that boost plant efficiency.

To prevent breakdowns caused by defective gears and hydraulics, these components must be monitored continuously. Temperature sensors reliably monitor the gear, the gear oil cooling system in the nacelle and the the lubricant circuit with high temperature stability. Overpressure-resistant sensors reliably monitor the state of hydraulic components.
