Description and Features
Grablink Full XR is a cost-effective full-featured frame grabber for single Camera Link camera applications featuring ECCO+. It supports one 80-bit, Full-, Medium- or Base-configuration camera. In most cases, ECCO+ allows the Grablink Full XR users to double the maximum length of the Camera Link cables used, thus making the use of a repeater unnecessary. Grablink Full XR features on-board processing, such as LUTs and a Bayer CFA decoder, in addition to a rich set of I/O lines compatible with a wide range of sensors and encoders, and a 4-lane PCI Express bus.
This high-end acquisition board targets high-speed and high-resolution area-scan and line-scan applications such as printing, web and flat panel display inspection, 3D inspection and manufacturing inspection for fast production lines.
