HIKROBOT MV-CB060-10UM-S — Area Scan Cameras
6 MP, Sony IMX178, USB3.0, Mono, M12-mount, 60.9 fps

As the CB family’s M12-mount mono/USB3.0 member, this model shares the same 35×35×8.6 mm board footprint as its C-mount sibling but is slightly heavier due to the M12 mount barrel (approx. 43.5 g versus 30 g). With the Sony® IMX178 mono sensor and USB3.0 interface it reaches 60.9 fps at 3072×2048. Being a housing-free board-level camera, it must be fixed into the customer’s enclosure via the PCB mounting holes; the M12 screw mount pairs directly with compact board-camera lenses.
It is powered from the USB3.0 line at typ. 1.5 W with no separate power supply needed; two bi-directional I/O lines (Line 2, Line 5) support hardware/software triggering and free-run mode. The HDR function combines different exposure/gain settings for scenes with a wide brightness range. USB3 Vision and GenICam compliance let it integrate with the MVS client and compatible third-party software.

Where it is used
The M12 mount suits compact automation modules, robot end-effectors or devices with limited mounting volume that need an embedded mono imaging solution with small lenses. The mono sensor and 60.9 fps rate are effective for high-speed counting and position/presence checks that don’t need color. HDR support improves image consistency in compact cells with variable lighting.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
