Detailed mono work and alternatives

Fine-pitch monochrome capture is the engineering profile of MV-CA060-11GM. A Sony IMX178 CMOS sensor combines 3072 × 2048 resolution, a 1/1.8-inch optical format and 2.4 µm pixels. The rolling-shutter camera transfers 17 fps over Gigabit Ethernet from a 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm C-mount housing and can receive power from 12 V DC or PoE.

The high pixel count and monochrome output serve edge measurement, structure analysis and surface inspection on stationary parts or indexed stages. Because the IMX178 reads with a rolling shutter, the acquisition should occur after motion has stopped when geometric accuracy matters. Exposure from 27 µs to 2.5 sec allows the lighting and cycle to be balanced, while isolated input and output on the 6-pin Hirose connector support hardware timing.

MV-CA060-10GC is the direct color counterpart: it keeps 3072 × 2048, 17 fps, Gigabit Ethernet and the same sensor format, but records color and typically consumes 3.5 W rather than 2.5 W. MV-CB060-10GM-S offers the same monochrome IMX178 in a 30.2 mm-long body with C-mount or M12-mount and a listed 19.1 fps. Retain MV-CA060-11GM when the enclosed CA body, PoE and monochrome 17 fps workflow define the station.

Selection and applications

Monochrome edge measurement on indexed parts. Fine-structure inspection at 3072 × 2048. PoE-connected static surface analysis.

Minimum kit: MV-CA060-11GM, a 1/1.8-inch C-mount lens, a Gigabit Ethernet cable, and either PoE or a 12 V DC supply provide the minimum acquisition hardware.

Nearby in the range: MV-CA060-10GC — Prefer it when the same 3072 × 2048 inspection requires color; MV-CB060-10GM-S — Prefer it for a shorter body and selectable C-mount or M12-mount.

FAQ

What optical requirements follow from the 2.4 µm pixels?

The C-mount lens needs to cover the 1/1.8-inch sensor and support detail across 3072 × 2048 pixels. The 2.4 µm pitch makes lens resolution and focus discipline important when the application uses the sensor's fine spatial sampling.

How may MV-CA060-11GM be powered in a GigE system?

The camera accepts 12 V DC and also supports PoE. Its typical draw is 2.5 W at 12 V DC. PoE can place data and operating power on the Ethernet connection, while the separate Hirose interface remains available for I/O.

Does the shutter suit measurements on a moving conveyor?

The Sony IMX178 uses a rolling shutter, so a stationary or indexed object is the straightforward measurement condition. If the target moves throughout exposure, rows can represent different positions and alter the measured geometry.

What full-frame timing is available from MV-CA060-11GM?

The maximum is 17 fps at 3072 × 2048 over Gigabit Ethernet. Exposure is adjustable from 27 µs to 2.5 sec, and the interface remains compatible with Fast Ethernet for installations that require that link support.

What do the three I/O lines on MV-CA060-11GM provide?

The 6-pin Hirose connector provides one opto-isolated input on Line 0, one opto-isolated output on Line 1 and one bidirectional non-isolated channel on Line 2. They can coordinate trigger and illumination timing.
