X-Strobe Series Machine Vision High Intensity Xenon Stroboscopes
Features Specifications Dimensions Ordering Information

X-Strobe pictured with optional nosepiece and fiber optic bundle

The X-Strobe Series is an advanced machine vision illumination strobe system. It's high output, long life, small size and superior reliability combine to make the X-Series the most versatile fiber optic stroboscopes available. These products incorporate the latest innovations in Xenon flashlamp technology, Power supply engineering, trigger performance and reflector design while meeting CE requirements.

The Xenon Flashlamp produces intense pulses of radiant energy covering the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS) and near infrared (NIR). When coupled to a CCD/CID camera system, the strobe "freezes motion" which eliminates blur and enhances image quality. Several variations of the X-Strobe Series are available; each optimized for maximum light output at a specific flash rate. External signal inputs allow you to further customize the stroboscope to your unique application.

MVS-2027, 2067 and 2200 SERIES

The MVS-2027, 2067 and 2200 Machine Vision Strobe
systems produce short duration, high intensity light pulses for
industrial vision applications. When coupled to a CCD/CID
camera system the MVS-2027, 2067 or 2200 "freezes motion", eliminates blur from the camera image and enhances image quality.

The three models are identical in every respect except the MVS-2067 and MVS-2200 provide higher flash repetition rates at lower flashlamp input energies than the MVS-2027. Each unit is contained in a robust industrial enclosure with two connectors,
one for the input power line and the other for signal level inputs.

The Xenon light output is focused onto a port configured for mounting one end of a Fiber Optic Bundle so that the light can be projected to an area remote from the instrument. Various fiber optic bundles, nose pieces and adapters are available to interface the fiber cable to the strobe enclosure.
