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
