HIKROBOT MV-SC5050XM-16L-WBN — Smart Cameras & Vision Sensors

The MV-SC5050XM-16L-WBN is a 5MP mono smart camera from HIKROBOT’s SC5000X series, built around a liquid lens with a 16 mm base focal length. The liquid lens allows electronic refocusing without swapping optics, which matters on lines where the object’s working distance is not constant. Choosing a mono sensor keeps contrast-based measurement and defect detection free of color-filter light loss.

Processing is handled through HIKROBOT’s VisionMaster (VM) platform, which runs deep-learning models for object recognition, defect detection and OCR directly on the device and ships with more than 140 ready-made algorithms for code-free setup. Paired with the liquid lens’s auto-focus capability, this lets the camera hold a sharp image even when part height varies from unit to unit on the same line.

Specifications

Key features

• Adopts AI deep learning algorithm to achieve OCR, object recognition, defect detection, etc.
• Integrates VM functions, and supports more than 140 algorithms.
• Adopts multiple I/O interfaces, such as multiple input/output signals.
• Supports multiple communication protocols.
• Supports indicators displaying device status for easy debugging and maintenance.
• Supports ingress protection IP67.

Where it is used

This configuration suits assembly stations where the working distance cannot be fixed, such as inspecting electronic components or small mechanical parts of varying heights. Typical tasks include OCR/OCV for serial numbers and date codes, edge and dimensional checks that benefit from mono contrast, and general presence/defect inspection.

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