INDUSTRIAL LIGHT SOURCE

Flat Light

Category: FST Industrial Light Sources

A flat light offers a large, uniform emitting surface. Its most common use is as a backlight: the part is placed between the light and the camera, producing a sharp-edged silhouette. That silhouette gives pixel-level repeatability in dimensional measurement, which is why it underpins most measurement applications.

Typical Applications
  • Dimensional and contour measurement
  • Hole presence and diameter checks
  • Edge detection on transparent parts
  • Silhouette measurement requiring high accuracy
