3S Series: 3D Vision Sensors
Bringing Efficiency to Manufacturing and Logistics with Advanced 3D Vision Technology
3D Inspection and Detection Optimizes Quality to New Levels. The high-resolution, high-speed 3S Series 3D sensors are plug-and-play ready with a power over ethernet (PoE) connection. They are enhanced with Zebra’s Aurora Design Assistant™ or Aurora Vision Studio™ to speed up development and bring 3D vision applications online quicker. Kits with Zebra’s 4Sight Series EV7 vision controller will also be available for multi-camera machine vision and deep learning applications on the factory floor.
The 3S40 sensor supports new use cases with a large field of view for the inspection and dimensioning of larger, static objects, with a scanning area of up 1626 (width) x 1312 (depth) x 1280 (height) mm. The 3S80 sensor is ideal for accurate inspection and dimensioning of static or in motion objects, with a scanning area of up to 862 (width) x 567 (depth) x 442 (height) mm for the 3S80-4M, while the 3S80-4L scan area reaches to 2495 (width) 1836 (depth) x 2256 (height) mm.
The 3S80 provides high-quality 3D data, colour information, and the ability to scan random movement in a picking application. The technology behind the 3S80 is patented, parallel-structured light technology which enables users to 3D scan whole areas of scenes with sub-millimetre resolution and accuracy, including those that are high-gloss, translucent or transparent.
Together, the 3S Series sensors can cover a range of use cases in manufacturing and logistics. These include electric vehicle battery surface inspection, automotive parts inspection, 3D measurement of angles in post assembly inspection, volume measurement, box dimensioning and object sizes in logistics operations. As part of a picking solution, the 3S Series can support logistics palletising and depalletising, bin picking, and robotic picking for automotive assembly lines.
