HIKROBOT MV-SC3060XC-12M-WBN — Smart Cameras & Vision Sensors

Within the 6.0 MP colour SC3000X family, the MV-SC3060XC-12M-WBN sits between its siblings with a 12 mm M12 lens — a narrower field of view than the 8 mm model and a wider one than the 16 mm model. The sensor is CMOS rolling shutter, with 2 µm × 2 µm pixels and 1/2.4″ optical format, delivering 3200 × 1920 resolution at up to 20 fps. Gain is 0 dB – 33 dB, exposure 540 µs – 200 ms, pixel format Mono 8 / RGB 8. Mechanical motorised focus is retained. The lens cover is semi-polarised (transparent or fully polarised optional); red/blue/infrared/ultraviolet illumination can supplement the white light source.

This model keeps the same illuminated power profile: 12–24 VDC, average 6.6 W / maximum 22 W with illumination on. The body is 80.1 × 43 × 43.5 mm flat-angle or 58.5 × 43 × 64.6 mm right-angle, approx. 190 g, IP67-rated, with a 360° indicator and a 2-LED aiming light for targeting. Connectivity uses the 12-pin M12 connector, providing 3 opto-isolated inputs (LINE0/1/2), 3 opto-isolated outputs (LINE3/4/5) and 1 RS-232 line. Vision tools cover blob/edge/contour/pattern/circle/line presence detection, anomaly detection and multiple counting methods (blob, edge, pattern, learning-based, colour); RS-232, TCP, UDP, FTP, PROFINET, Modbus, EtherNet/IP, MELSEC/SLMP, FINS, Keyence KV protocols, the Fast Ethernet interface and 32-program capacity are standard.

Where it is used

Sitting between the 8 mm wide angle and the 16 mm narrow angle, the 12 mm focal length offers a middle ground of field of view and working distance — a balanced option for colour inspection stations that need to cover an area fully while still viewing from a set distance. The 2-LED aiming light assists alignment. It should be chosen once the project’s distance and field-of-view requirements are clear.

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