Cognex Easy Builder
The EasyBuilder interface walks you through the process of setting up your vision application, step by step. Great for novice users, the application is deployed and running in a very short time. EasyBuilder doesn’t require users to learn programming, enabling them to focus on what’s most familiar … the part! Intuitive, Easy to Use Working from an image of the part, four simple steps complete the application setup: 1. Start - Find an In-Sight vision system on the network, then be guided through triggering the vision system and setting up scale and nonlinear calibrations. 2. Set up tools - After finding the part, a library of 22 vision tools is available to inspect the part. The most powerful vision tools available are now made easy to use. 3. Configure - A new point-and-click communications setup provides easy selection of data to be sent, and the protocol to use for communicating to a PLC, robot, or HMI for data collection and archiving results. 4. Finish - In the deployment mode, colorful tool graphics, a results table, and a filmstrip control to review images simplify troubleshooting the application and identifying bad parts. That’s all it takes to complete an application! In a fraction of the time that you would normally spend learning how to set up a vision system, you can have your entire solution configured, deployed, and productive.
In-Sight Vision Tools
The industry-leading Cognex vision tool library provides reliable, repeatable performance in even the most challenging vision applications. Powerful Location Tools PatMax If a vision system can’t repeatably locate parts because of wide variations in part orientation, size and appearance, then vision inspection yield and reliability will be significantly reduced.
These variations include: Part contrast Multiple parts Changes in lighting Image focus Degraded appearance Partially-hidden parts
In-Sight Vision Performance Tools
Tool Categories and Descriptions	Description: Locate parts in widely-varying locations reliably and accurately. The Cognex Advantage: Handles wide variations in part orientation, size, and appearance. Simplifies mechanical fixturing and lighting, making vision projects easier and less expensive to implement.
Inspection Tools	Description: Verify the correct assembly of components and find flaws in part appearance. The Cognex Advantage: Provides robust, repeatable inspection results despite changes in part orientation. Allows users to easily classify defects by defect type.
Measurement Tools	Description: Measure distances between features, verify tolerances, and locate edges. The Cognex Advantage: Enables high-accuracy gauging of critical part dimensions despite changes in part orientation and ambient lighting
Industrial Code Reading Tools	Description: Reliably read 1D and 2D codes on labels or directly marked on parts. The Cognex Advantage: Handles low-contrast, poorly formed codes resulting from process degradation and marking techniques such as dot peen and laser etch. Reads up to 7200 parts per minute.
OCV/OCR Tools	Description: Verify and read alphanumeric text strings. The Cognex Advantage: Handles low-contrast characters, as well as confusing or unevenly-spaced characters. Verifies/reads up to 600 strings per minute.
Color Vision Tools (available on 5400C model)	Description: Verify and sort a wide range of part types based on color. The Cognex Advantage: Provides robust, reliable color detection of a wide range of part types. Converts color images to grey-scale for additional types of inspections.
