HIKROBOT MV-CL043-A1GC — Line Scan Cameras
4096×3, GigE, Color (True RGB)

The MV-CL043-A1GC is a 4096×3 GigE line-scan camera from HIKROBOT’s CL Series that delivers true RGB color imaging. It integrates multiple ISP image algorithms and functions such as Gamma, flat field correction (FFC), and gain, giving it higher color resolution than the family’s 4096×2 color model.

Where it is used
The three-line true-RGB sensor delivers higher color fidelity for applications where color accuracy is critical, such as packaging print, textile pattern inspection, or solar cell color grading. Its GigE interface allows this color-critical line to integrate easily with standard network infrastructure.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
