HIKROBOT MVL-HF4028M-6MPE — Lenses
40 mm, F2.8 to F16, Ø9 mm (1/1.8″), C-mount
The MVL-HF4028M-6MPE moves further toward the telephoto end of the family, a fixed-focal C-mount lens at 40 mm for 1/1.8″ 6 MP sensors. The long focal length lets the camera sit noticeably farther from the target while keeping the field of view narrow and magnifying fine detail. HIKROBOT’s data shows the lens still holds high image clarity and low distortion at this range, which matters for precise reading and measurement tasks carried out from a distance.

Where it is used
The 40 mm focal length is considered for applications with a long working distance, where the camera cannot physically get close to the target — for instance in a hot, dusty, or access-restricted section of a line. It provides magnification without losing detail for tasks such as reading a serial number or 2D code on a small part from farther away. It can be a fit for setups where the camera is mounted off the line, behind a protective enclosure.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
Is this lens right for your application?
Let us determine focal length, sensor size, working distance and field of view together, based on your application. FST is HIKROBOT’s distributor in Türkiye; product selection, commissioning and after-sales support all come from one source.
The data herein may vary based on the environment, objects and other various factors, and HIKROBOT shall not assume the consequences arising therefrom.
