Guide complet de sélection des caméras industrielles Baumer (2026 Edition)

Clarify Application Requirements → Match Core Parameters → Select Series & Model → Verify Environmental Adaptability → Complete Selection Validation.

The entire process balances accuracy, vitesse, and cost as core indicators.

1. Application Requirement Analysis Before Selection (Fundamentals)

The core of selection is application-oriented, not blind pursuit of high specifications.

Core Formulas:

Minimum Resolution = (Field of View ÷ Minimum Inspection Size) × 1.5–2× redundancy

Minimum Frame Rate = (Object Speed ÷ Pixel Accuracy) × 1.2–1.5× redundancy

Maximum Exposure Time = Pixel Accuracy ÷ Object Speed (to avoid motion blur)

2. Core Parameter Selection (Clé)
3. Résolution & Sensor Selection

Baumer Recommendations:

Entry-level: EXG series (5 MP, rolling shutter)

Mid-high end: VCXG series (5 MP, Sony IMX264 global shutter)

Haut de gamme: LX series (10 MP+, haute résolution)

2. Frame Rate & Exposure Control

3. Interface Type Selection (System Critical)

Key Note: Prefer GigE for multi-camera systems (supports PTP sync); USB3 for short-distance high speed; Camera Link / 5GigE for ultra-high speed / haute résolution.

4. E/S & Function Selection

3. Baumer Series Matching (Implementation)

Baumer industrial cameras are divided into five main series for different scenarios:

4. Adaptabilité environnementale & Installation Selection (Guarantee)
5. Paramètres environnementaux

2. Montage & Lens Selection

5. Étapes de sélection & Decision Flow (Practical)
6. Requirement Clarification
7. Define inspection object, accuracy requirement, movement speed
8. Calculate required minimum resolution, frame rate, exposure time
9. Confirm interface type, transmission distance, system architecture
10. Series Screening
11. Select series based on budget and performance (EXG → VCXG → LX)
12. Match sensor type, shutter mode, paramètres de base
13. Verify environmental adaptability (température, IP rating)
14. Model Finalization
15. Select specific model (résolution, interface, fonctions)
16. Select matching lens (focal length, mount, distortion requirements)
17. Verify software compatibility (GenICam, GigE Vision support)
18. Validation & Procurement
19. Test d'échantillon (image quality, frame rate, trigger response)
20. Confirm warranty and after-sales service (Baumer standard: 24 mois)
21. Bulk purchase (verify authenticity via unique part number)
22. Recommended Selections for Typical Applications

7. Common Mistakes & Avoidance Tips
8. Focus only on pixels, not accuracy: High megapixels ≠ high precision; must calculate with FOV and inspection size
9. Ignore shutter type: Rolling shutter on moving objects causes severe motion blur
10. Incorrect interface choice: USB3 for long distances (≤5m) or GigE for ultra-high speed hurts performance
11. Miss environmental parameters: Unprotected cameras fail in high-temperature / humid environments
12. Neglect software compatibility: Non-GenICam cameras hard to integrate with mainstream vision software
13. Selection Summary & Next Steps

The core logic for choosing Baumer industrial cameras is:

Application-oriented, balance performance and cost, ensure system compatibility and long-term stability.

1. List your specific application requirements (précision, vitesse, environnement, budget)
2. Use Baumer’s official Camera Selector tool for preliminary filtering
3. Contact an authorized Baumer distributor for sample testing
4. Conduct system integration testing to verify camera performance and compatibility
