Back Lights and When to Use Them
We are here to help. Back lights define crisp, high-contrast object outlines, perfect for dimensioning, foreign object control, and fill level measurements.
How back lights workWhen to use back lights and where to place them
Back light illumination places a bright, luminous surface opposite the camera with the target object placed in the beam path between the illumination and the camera. This makes outlines visible and measurable with great precision due to the maximum contrast achieved with backlighting.
Application example: Contour and dimension measurement, foreign object inspection, fill level control, inspection for burrs.
