HIKROBOT MV-CU200-20GM — Area Scan Cameras
20 MP, AR2020, GigE, Mono, 5.9 fps

The MV-CU200-20GM is the monochrome version of the CU series’ 20 MP GigE camera, using the 1/1.8″ AR2020 rolling-shutter CMOS with 1.4 μm pixels. It delivers 5120 × 3840 in Mono 8 at 5.9 fps, with 39 dB SNR and a 61 dB dynamic range. Without a Bayer filter every pixel carries direct intensity information, which is why it is chosen for fine measurement and dense code reading.
Connection is via Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbit/s); Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) compatibility is retained and cabling up to 100 meters is possible without a repeater. Power is supplied at 9 VDC to 24 VDC, PoE is optional, and typical 2.0 W consumption at 12 VDC keeps thermal load low. Hardware trigger, software trigger and free-run modes use the opto-isolated input (Line 0), opto-isolated output (Line 1) and bi-directional non-isolated line (Line 2) on the 6-pin P7 connector. The approximately 100 g C-mount camera complies with GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam.

Where it is used
The 20 MP monochrome array is for measurement tasks that must gather fine detail across a wide field in a single frame: dimensional checks on sheet-metal and plastic parts, solder and component-presence inspection on populated PCBs, and scratch or residue detection on glass and film surfaces. The low frame rate pairs with inspection benches and indexed lines where the product is held still. High pixel density also allows many small codes to be read from one image.
Suitability depends on working distance, field of view, target characteristics and positioning. Selection is assessed on a per-project basis.
