C-Mount Low Distortion Machine Vision Lens Applications

Core Application Scenes

This 45MP C-Mount low distortion lens is developed for precision imaging applications where image detail and geometric accuracy are both important. Its 50mm focal length provides a controlled field of view while the extremely low TV distortion helps preserve the shape and position of objects across the image.

For machine vision inspection, the lens can be integrated with high-resolution industrial cameras to inspect components, mechanical parts, electronic assemblies, printed materials, and other objects where image deformation could affect measurement or defect detection. The 45MP optical performance is particularly useful when fine surface features or small defects need to be resolved from a relatively close working distance.

The 250mm M.O.D. also makes the lens suitable for compact inspection stations where the camera needs to be positioned relatively close to the target. Manual focus and iris adjustment allow system integrators to optimize the optical setup according to working distance, illumination conditions, and required depth of field.

For factory automation and FA systems, the combination of C-Mount compatibility, large image format support, fixed focal length, and extremely low distortion provides a stable optical platform for automated inspection equipment. It can be paired with high-resolution line or area-scan imaging systems when consistent image geometry is important for downstream vision processing.

Designed for high-resolution machine vision inspection, precision measurement, and factory automation applications.
