HIKROBOT MV-SC3020XC-16M-WBN — Smart Cameras & Vision Sensors

The MV-SC3020XC-16M-WBN is a 2.0MP colour smart camera (vision sensor) from HIKROBOT’s SC3000X family, delivering 1536 × 1264 resolution at up to 100 fps. Its fixed 16 mm lens gives a narrow field of view combined with a long working distance, making it suited to setups where the camera must be mounted away from the target. The colour sensor handles colour differentiation and colour measurement tasks on its own, without needing a separate unit. Certified CE and KC, the camera runs on the SC3000X family’s embedded hardware platform, combining image processing, decision-making and communication in a single housing without requiring an external PC or controller.

Running on its embedded hardware platform, the MV-SC3020XC-16M-WBN carries built-in high-precision algorithms for tasks such as counting, defect detection, presence/absence checking and positioning. It supports a range of communication protocols — RS-232, TCP, UDP, FTP, Modbus, PROFINET and EtherNet/IP — together with a rich digital I/O interface, so it integrates easily with different PLCs and line controllers. A 360° visible status indicator keeps the unit readable from any angle on the line, while the rotatable cable outlet suits tight mounting spaces. A multi-layer optical lighting design with polarised, diffuser and fully transparent options helps preserve image quality across different surfaces and materials, and an IP67 rating lets it work reliably in dusty or humid production environments.

Specifications

Key features

• Multi-layer optical lighting. Polarised, diffuser and fully-transparent optical lighting options provide good adaptability to varying environmental conditions.
• IP67 protection. IP67 protection allows confident use in harsh industrial environments.

Where it is used

Its 16 mm focal length suits stations where the MV-SC3020XC-16M-WBN cannot be mounted close to the line, or where the target sits at a distance — the narrow field of view still resolves fine detail from further away. The colour sensor is sufficient on its own for tasks that verify a product’s colour, label colour or print colour. On lines with restricted access, or where the camera must sit behind a protective barrier, it offers a more practical option than wide-angle models.

Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
