HIKROBOT MVL-MF2518M-5MPE — Lenses
25 mm, F1.8–F16, 2/3″, C-mount

The MVL-MF2518M-5MPE moves to a 25 mm focal length, narrowing the field of view to concentrate more sensor resolution on a smaller area than the 12 mm and 16 mm lenses. It keeps the F1.8 maximum aperture of its 16 mm sibling, so the step up in focal length does not come at the cost of light-gathering, and the achromatic design continues to correct color fringing for accurate color-camera reproduction.

Key features
- High resolution and consistency of image clarity
- Lower distortion and higher relative illumination rate
- Achromatic optical system design for better imaging performance with color cameras
- Excellent performance at high and low temperatures
- Good optical performance at ultra-short working distance
Where it is used
Fits stations where the camera is set back further from the part and the task calls for closer inspection of a defined region rather than a whole tray — label and barcode verification, connector or pin inspection, and robotic-guidance tasks needing a tighter, more detailed view than the wide-angle models in the series provide.
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.
