HIKROBOT MV-CS060-RC — Area Scan Cameras
6 MP, IMX178, USB3.0, Color, 42.7 fps
The MV-CS060-RC is a 6 MP color model in the CE Series USB3.0 family. Its 1/1.8″ IMX178 CMOS rolling-shutter sensor (2.4 μm pixels) reaches 3072×2048 resolution at the highest frame rate in this group, 42.7 fps. With a 41.3 dB SNR and 71.3 dB dynamic range, it trades lower resolution for speed and strong signal quality.
The USB3.0 interface (with M2 screw holes for securing the cable) runs on either 12 VDC external power or power drawn from the USB3.0 line (typ. 2.7 W). A 6-pin Hirose connector supplies 1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output and 1 bi-directional non-isolated I/O line, supporting hardware trigger, software trigger and free-run mode. With a C-mount lens interface and a compact 29×29×30 mm, 56 g body, it complies with USB3 Vision and GenICam.

Where it is used
As the fastest model in this group at 42.7 fps, the MV-CS060-RC suits fast-moving lines needing position/presence checks and color-based classification; its color output enables product-color or label verification on high-speed sorting conveyors. Its 6 MP resolution and light, 56 g body are an advantage in stations requiring a compact, space-constrained mount.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
