Hikrobot MV-CH120-60NM

Mono tasks and range context

A 24 fps Mono 8 stream at 4096 × 3072 gives MV-CH120-60NM a middle position between standard Gigabit Ethernet and the higher-rate 10 Gigabit Ethernet cameras. The 12.6 MP Stacked BSI CMOS sensor has a 1.1-inch optical format, uses 3.45 µm pixels and exposes globally. Images leave through 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, with stated compatibility for Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet. The optical interface is C-mount and the enclosure measures 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm.

This mono configuration addresses dimensional edges, fiducial alignment and contrast-defined surface features at a moderate conveyor rate. Because the global shutter samples the entire field together, a moving part retains its geometry within the exposure. The 4096 × 3072 grid supports fine spatial decisions, while 24 fps provides temporal coverage beyond the 9.5 fps network models. Network compatibility lets the camera participate in existing Ethernet layouts, with the selected link rate determining available transport capacity.

The colour counterpart MV-CH120-60NC shares the Stacked BSI sensor format, 24 fps ceiling, C-mount and 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet but outputs Bayer RG 8. MV-CH120-60GM is the lower-rate mono network alternative, recording 4096 × 3000 at 10 fps over Gigabit Ethernet with PoE. When 24 fps is insufficient, MV-CH120-60TM-C-NF provides mono 4096 × 3072 at 80 fps over 10 Gigabit Ethernet, with a larger fan-cooled enclosure.

Selection and applications

Mono feature measurement at 24 fps. 4096 × 3072 inspection of moving geometry. 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet image acquisition.

Minimum kit: MV-CH120-60NM, a C-mount lens, 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet cabling and an appropriate camera power connection constitute the basic operating set.

Nearby in the range: MV-CH120-60NC — Select it when the 24 fps networked frame must carry Bayer RG 8 colour; MV-CH120-60TM-C-NF — Select it for mono 4096 × 3072 capture at 80 fps over 10 Gigabit Ethernet.

FAQ

Which resolution and output format are available at 24 fps?

MV-CH120-60NM reaches 24 fps at 4096 × 3072 in Mono 8. The Stacked BSI sensor has a 1.1-inch format, a 3.45 µm × 3.45 µm pitch and a global shutter. Data uses 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet.

Can this mono model join a Gigabit Ethernet machine network?

The native interface is 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet, and the description explicitly includes Gigabit Ethernet and Fast Ethernet compatibility. Available image throughput depends on the network rate used by the installation.

What mechanical envelope and lens thread does the camera require?

The housing is 29 mm × 29 mm × 42 mm and the optical connection is C-mount. Those are the stated integration facts for selecting a mounting location and matching the lens mechanically.

How does mono output support dimensional or edge-based inspection?

The camera delivers one Mono 8 intensity value per pixel across its 4096 × 3072 frame. Combined with global exposure, that supports geometry and contrast decisions without Bayer RG 8 colour sampling.

When is MV-CH120-60TM-C-NF the higher-throughput alternative?

It is the neighbouring mono choice when the same 4096 × 3072 global frame must rise from 24 fps to 80 fps. That change also moves the data path from 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet to 10 Gigabit Ethernet.
