HIKROBOT MV-CU020-80GC V2 — Area Scan Cameras
2 MP, SC235, GigE, Color, 53.5 fps

The MV-CU020-80GC V2, the CU series’ 2 MP color GigE model, offers 1600 × 1200 pixel resolution from a 1/2.6-inch SC235 global shutter CMOS sensor and 53.5 fps in Bayer GB 8. On the datasheet its visible differences from the standard 80GC are the Bayer GB pixel pattern and a weight of approximately 100 g; the 40.1 dB SNR, 60.4 dB dynamic range and 1.9 W typical consumption are the same. Its exposure range of 45 μs to 1 second suits both moving and static scenes.
The Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbit/s) link is backward compatible with Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) and runs over existing Ethernet infrastructure. Power arrives as 9–24 VDC through the 6-pin P7 connector or optionally via PoE; there is an opto-isolated input for triggering, an opto-isolated output for the result signal and an additional bi-directional I/O line. Gain, exposure, LUT and Gamma settings are made from GigE Vision V2.0 / GenICam compliant software.

Where it is used
Grading produce by color on food and agricultural lines, spotting color deviation in the seal area of packaging closures, and color-based separation in mixed-part bins are jobs within this camera’s scope. Horizontal and vertical reverse image output reduces the need for software-side correction when the camera is mounted mirrored or upside down. At 53.5 fps it delivers one frame per product on medium-speed lines.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
