3 Equipment Overview

3.1 FunctionThe V11 is a modular, expandable vision inspection system that provides simple label or print qualityinspection of flat, oriented products. The V11 is a kit for integration in existing lines.

3.2 Configuration PossibilitiesThe V11 is available in three major configurations:

1. Without tracking option, without VCU, without Inspection Manager2. Without tracking option, with VCU (or customer PC), with Inspection Manager3. With tracking option (PLC), with VCU, with Inspection Manager

3.3 ComponentsThe V11 always consists of the following components:

• Smart Camera (SMC) with SMC Client software and JDataTrans software• Electrical cabinet (recommended), drop-in electrical panel or Patch Panel 3.0

3.3.1 Smart Camera (SMC)

3.3.1.1 Function

An SMC (Smart Camera) is a camera that sequentially reads pre-printed information from variouspackaging surfaces such as labels, bottles, or cartons. The SMC can check both the presence and thequality of the printed information.For every product that arrives at the camera, the SMC captures an image. After capturing the image, thesoftware calculates the characteristics of the product and compares it to reference samples that the user hastaught-in before. In case that one or more of the compared values exceed the set tolerances, the product isevaluated as 'bad'.SMCs can process image data on their integrated signal processor. As opposed to PC-based cameras(such as the HRC) which capture an image and send the result to a connected PC for evaluation, SMCs usetheir installed software to evaluate the image by themselves. The user can define an "area of interest" in animage with so-called control windows and teach the camera how to interpret the information from thatimage.

3.3.1.2 Equipment Overview SMC Series 3

ComponentsThe hardware of the SMC comprises the following components:• Housing• Lens• Internal illumination• Mounting block• Connectors and interfaces• Status LEDs• Manual trigger• Integrated signal processor• Main board• Flash memory• Optical component


In case that the internal illumination is not sufficient, external illumination can be mounted to the SMC bymeans of mounting brackets.

3.3.1.3 SMC Client Software

The SMC Client is an application for accessing the SMC core software. The software is provided at no costand must be installed on a customer PC.The SMC Client software is used for the following tasks:• Remote control of all SMC software types• View the actual reading results of the SMC (OCV; OCR)• Edit the SMC software from a tablet PC or any other PC in a common network• Configure SMCs• Access all SMCs via LAN (add, delete)

NOTE: The functionality of SMC Client does not include user management, statistics, or camera formatback-up.

3.3.1.4 SMC OCV Software

The OCV/OCR and Code Control software (short: SMC OCV) is the main software of the SMC. This softwareis used for the evaluation of prints or printed labels on products. You can determine the type of control thesoftware should perform and you can set tolerances for the individual control types.For details on the design and handling of the SMC OCV software refer to the User Manual on the SMC OCV.

3.3.2 Electrical CabinetThe electrical cabinet contains all electrical and electronic components of the equipment, for example,cabling, wiring, and switches. The electrical cabinet protects the user against electrical shock and protectsthe contents from the environment.The size and equipment of the electrical cabinet depends on your application (number of devices, VCUmounting options, tracking).

Lockout - TagoutThe electrical cabinet has a fixed guard that can only be opened with a special key. The electrical cabinet isprovided with an interlock to disconnect the main switch.

3.3.3 Drop-in or Patch Panel

Drop-in Electrical PanelThe drop-in electrical panel is used for the wiring inside the electrical cabinet. The drop-in panel is designedin a way to fit inside the electrical cabinet of the customer, thus eliminating the need for a separateenclosure.The drop-in panel can contain up to two patch panels to control up to two SMC.

Patch Panel 3.0The Patch Panel 3.0 is a small connection board for a quick and simple wiring of cameras and scanners.The patch panel is mounted into the electrical cabinet onto a DIN rail and can be used instead of a drop-inelectrical panel. Up to three patch panels may be incorporated into a solution, supporting a maximum ofthree cameras (one patch panel per camera).If the solution requires only one camera, the patch panel option can be quite cost-effective, since anEthernet switch is not required in that case.

3.4 OptionsThe following options are available:• Additional SMC bundles• SMC OCV Software• Inspection Manager Software (IM)• Vision Configuration Unit (VCU)


• VCU mounting options• Tracking components such as PLC• Electrical cabinet with electrical panel• External illumination with cabling• Mounting brackets for cameras and external illumination

3.4.1 Inspection Manager Software (IM)The Inspection Manager Software (IM) centrally controls and manages units such as cameras and scannersat one line. The provided settings are stored in the database.

NOTICERead the User ManualFor details on the design and handling of the Inspection Manager software refer to theUser Manual on the Inspection Manager. The User Manual is available on www.mt.com/civ-manuals.

3.4.2 Vision Configuration Unit (VCU)The Vision Configuration Unit (VCU) is a permanent touchscreen that can be used as a replacement for acustomer PC. The VCU includes a board PC that runs the Inspection Manager software.The VCU allows the viewing of inspection results, real-time status updates (such as pass/fail counts), andan easy parameter input.

There are three VCU versions available:• 12", IP 65• 15", IP 65• 15", IP 54

3.4.3 VCU Mounting Options

Mounting options for the 15" VCU (IP 54)The following mounting options are available for the 15" VCU (IP 54):• Wall mounting


• Post mountingBoth options are implemented with the help of a VESA mount. Three adjustment knobs allow you toarticulate the VCU to an optimal position.

Mounting options for the 12" and 15" VCU (both IP 65)The following mounting options are available for the 12" and 15" VCU (both IP 65):• Floor mounting• Machine vertical mounting• Wall mounting• Horizontal mounting

3.4.4 External IlluminationIn some environments, the existing lighting is not sufficient which would lead to bad inspection results. Forthese cases, you can deploy additional illumination.The external illumination is connected to the SMC, using a prepared cable set (not included), and mountedto the equipment by means of mounting brackets. The typical distance to the object that is to be inspected is>130 mm.The SMC triggers the external illumination in the correct moment. The external illumination can be regulatedindividually by the parameters in the implemented software.

3.4.5 Mounting BracketsMounting brackets may be purchased to hold cameras and external illumination. The brackets incorporateuniversal mounts for lights and cameras which make it easy to align components for the desiredinspections.There are three types of mounting brackets available:

• Mounting bracket for camerasThis mounting bracket is used to mount and align a camera.

• Top mounting bracket for external illuminationThis mounting bracket is used to mount and align external illumination. The lights illuminate the productin front of the camera from above.

• Side-by-side mounting bracket for external illuminationThis mounting brackets are used to mount and align external illumination. The lights are located to theleft and to the right of the camera, thus illuminating the product in front of the camera from both sides.

3.4.6 Tracking

3.4.6.1 PLC

In applications with tracking, the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) is used.


Function and ComponentsThe PLC consists of the following two main components:• Hardware modules (the actual PLC)• Vision Real-Time Core Software (VRC)The main function of a PLC is to control the components in an application (production line), for example:• Rotary encoder• Smart Camera (SMC)• Detection sensor• Printer• RejectorFor details on the design and handling of the PLC and the VRC software refer to the User Manual on thePLC.

Triggering PossibilitiesThe PLC supports two different possibilities to trigger the devices in your application:• Encoder-based (or distance-based) triggering: The encoder tracks the distance that a product travels.

The PLC triggers the devices as soon as the product passes the defined offsets. Teach-in tools imple-mented in the VRC software of the PLC help to determine the offsets for your application.

• Time-based triggering: There is no encoder in your application. You define how long the product travelsfrom device to device. The devices are triggered automatically as soon as the set times have elapsed.

3.4.6.2 Tracking Components

In applications with tracking, the following components are commonly used:

• Rotary encoder: The encoder is linked with the conveyor motor and provides position and speedfeedback by transmitting pulses based upon the rotation of the conveyor motor shaft. The encoderenables the tracking system to track the product. The encoder can accurately track the product duringchanges in line speed.

• Conveyor belt: The products travel on the conveyor belt.

• Sensors: The sensors are used to detect the presence of a product during the tracking process.Depending on the application and the configuration (with or without tracking), the number of deployedsensors varies. Usually, in applications with tracking, there is a product sensor, a reject verify sensor,and a reject verify counter check sensor. See chapter [Operation Workflow } Page 25] for details.

• Rejector and reject bin: The rejector ejects the products that have been evaluated as 'bad' by theupstream SMC. Bad products are collected in the reject bin.

NOTICEMalfunction and damage due to faulty handlingSome of the components mentioned above are supplier components. Details on thehandling of these components must be taken from the respective user manuals by thesupplier.

–– –– Trigger and feedback signals

The products travel on the conveyor belt. The PLC (2) determines the conveyor belt speed with the help ofthe encoder (3). The product sensor (4) detects a product and sends a feedback signal to the PLC. The PLCtriggers the SMCs (5) which take a picture of the print. The SMCs send their inspection results ('good' or'bad') to the PLC.In case of a 'good' signal, the product passes the rejector (6) without being ejected. The reject verify countercheck sensor (7) verifies that the 'good' product has actually passed the reject bin without being ejected.In case of a 'bad' signal, the PLC triggers the rejector. The rejector then pushes the 'bad' product into thereject bin (8). The reject verify sensor (9) verifies that the 'bad' product goes to the reject bin.The operator can monitor the production on the VCU (1) where the Inspection Manager, the SMC OCVsoftware, and the PLC software (VRC) can be called up.
