Unlimited color spectrum analysis
for your most challenging applications.
For inspection features best examined by spectral analysis, Banner offers
solutions designed to meet your requirements and fit your machinery. The new one-
piece PresencePLUS® P4 COLOR OMNI and the compact PresencePLUS® Pro COLOR
sensor with a separate DIN-mountable controller offer two powerful platforms for
color vision applications—with all of the robust inspection tools and capabilities of
their gray scale counterparts.
PresencePLUS Pro COLOR and P4 COLOR OMNI vision sensors inspect unlimited
color variations visible in the camera’s field of view. Shape and color data can be
combined to identify minute variations and color consistency can be monitored within
a taught range of acceptable color.
Combining intuitive PresencePLUS software, remote TEACH for rapid configuration
and a precision 752 x 480 pixel resolution color CMOS imager, PresencePLUS Pro
COLOR and P4 COLOR OMNI vision sensors inspect for a specific color or color range
taught to the sensor with the Color Match tool. All models include the powerful suite
of gray scale vision tools—including Locate, Pattern Find and Count, Geometric Find
and Count, Edge, Object, Blob and Average Gray Scale—that deliver extraordinary
precision and versatility, for the most demanding inspections.
A PresencePLUS P4 COLOR OMNI mounted above a conveyor inspects each
box of 12 chocolates, making sure each paper nest contains the correct type,
based on color. It rejects boxes that have the wrong chocolate in a nest, are
missing product or have damaged product.
A PresencePLUS Pro COLOR vision sensor verifies that pour spouts inserted
into detergent bottles are present, fully inserted and of the correct color to
match the bottle. The IP68 sealed housing protects the sensor and light
from liquids.
To verify that fuses of the specified amperage are placed in the correct location
in an automotive fuse box assembly, a PresencePLUS Pro COLOR vision sensor
using a Banner White Area Light provides fast and easy error proofing.
Tightened federal regulations require critical quality controls in pharma-
ceutical packaging. A PresencePLUS Pro COLOR vision sensor under a Banner
Tubular Fluorescent Light inspects blister packs to ensure each blister
contains the correct tablet, verifies each tablet is unbroken, and detects
empty blisters or those containing foreign matter.
As glass bottles pass on a high-speed conveyor, a PresencePLUS P4 COLOR
OMNI confirms each bottle is completely filled, while verifying the stopper
is fully inserted and is the correct color. Dual Banner Area Lights bracket
directly to the sensor to create the optimum contrast for the inspection.
