HIKROBOT MV-CA060-11GM — Area Scan Cameras
6 MP, Sony IMX178, GigE, Mono, 17 fps
The MV-CA060-11GM is the highest-resolution model in this group: built around a 1/1.8″ Sony® IMX178 CMOS rolling-shutter sensor, it produces 6 MP mono images at 3072×2048. Unlike the other CA050 models here, it uses a rolling-shutter architecture, and its smaller 2.4 μm pixels support 41.3 dB SNR and 71.3 dB dynamic range, while its frame rate is the lowest in the group at 17 fps. HIKROBOT marks this model in its catalog as ‘Delisting Preparation’.
The Gigabit Ethernet interface allows cable runs of up to 100 m without a relay and is backward-compatible with Fast Ethernet; the camera can be powered via 12 VDC or PoE. A 6-pin Hirose connector provides 1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output and 1 bi-directional non-isolated I/O line, with hardware/software triggering supported and up to 128 MB of local memory for burst transmission. Its C-mount and compact 29×29×42 mm housing, together with GigE Vision V2.0/GenICam compliance, let it integrate into existing GigE-based vision systems.

Where it is used
The high resolution and small pixel size suit fine-detail applications such as PCB/electronics inspection or dimensional measurement. Because of its rolling-shutter design, this model performs better on high-resolution inspection of stationary or slow-moving parts than on fast-moving objects. Its high SNR is useful in precision quality-control scenarios such as detecting low-contrast surface defects.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
