  • BOA is fully loaded with iNspect Express, a comprehensive set of click and apply tools to satisfy a wide range of optical automation tasks:
  • Suite of applications tools:
    • Positioning tools locate features for alignment, assembly verification or robotic guidance
    • Identification tools read coded symbologies or text for a variety of applications, such as part tracking, product identification and package readability
    • Measurement tools verify critical measures on a part, such as distance, angle, radii and circularity
    • Verification tools check for presence or correctness of features, such as number of holes on a part or the integrity and uniformity of a glue bead
    • Flaw detection tools detect scratches, cracks or other types of maufacturing defects
  • The BOA tool box includes editing capabilities for parametric control and copy/paste/delete functions
INTEGRATION:

Flexible Communications Options for Factory Integration

BOA allows a wide range of connections to networks, PCs, factory equipment, triggers, PLCs, and more.boa integration

  • Built-in opto-isolated I/O allows direct wiring to associated control devices, such as part-in-place triggers and post inspection part steering10/100 BaseT Ethernet port provides setup and monitor access, runtime control, and standard communication protocols such as TCP/IP, Ethernet/IP and Modbus/IP

  • Passive Power over Ethernet supports single cable interface option - ideal for robotic applications

  • RS-232 link offers additional serial communication and control option

  • Integrated lamp connector provides power and strobe control to external LED light sources

  • Exposed status LEDs indicate device health and application activity

  • M12 connectors support standard low-cost factory cabling

NEXUS BRIDGE:

BOA NEXUS Smart Bridge

A complementary device for BOA smart cameras, the BOA NEXUS Smart Bridge works with existing BOA camera systems to expand their information sharing and monitoring capabilities. The BOA NEXUS uses a standard monitor to conveniently display inspection images and application specific information from multiple BOA cameras, eliminating the need for an HMI. Featuring its own BOA NEXUS Navigator built-in software interface, support for iNspect Express and Sherlock software, and six Gigabit Ethernet ports, the BOA NEXUS is the perfect low-power companion to BOA smart camera systems.
