"Smart Sensor" ZFX-C
"Essential Innovation
for Future Generations"
Easy Vision Being Our Vision
The Omron's new ZFX-C Smart Vision Sensor is a total Image
Processing system that includes everything from a camera with
an integrated light source to an image-processing unit.
With Omron's newly developed proprietary measurement
algorithm, the parameter can be set through only a few steps
involving the operation of a touch-panel color monitor.
This “Smart” user interface provides simplicity of usage giving
anyone all they can need to perform a complete image
enhancement.
The new technology and style of the ZFX-C paves the way to a
new era of vision sensors.

“Smar t Recipe”
with condensed know-how
“Smart Recipe” has radically reduced setting up time allowing for greater productivity.
World's first
Capturing the image processing know-how Omron has accumulated over many years, the world's first
One-touch automatic setting
The essential skills for image processing are now packaged into Omron's unique algorithm. The setting
that traditionally required much fumbling is now made easy with the “select from auto listed options”
using recipes. Lighting setup, the longtime problem for image processing, and the tricky parameter
details involved in measurement setup, can now be done automatically with just the flip of a switch.

Recipe
Step1
Smart Recipe is on Omron's invention of 3-step setting procedure.
By adopting a new algorithm to encapsulate “human know-how”, the auto setup
for lighting and measurement now possible.
Anyone can rapidly perform a high level of image processing.
Choose best lighting
Patent pending
The know-how and trial and error that have been indispensable and required much time
and effort up to now in lighting setup is now an automated process. By just selecting the
best one from the candidate images automatically captured by changing the lighting
pattern with the auto-lighting, anyone can easily find the optimal lighting. User can now
easily determine settings for shiny work with high degrees of reflection and black
monochrome work with low degrees of reflection, something very tricky before. In
addition, when a more detailed setup is needed, the customized setup can be used to
incorporate know-how.
Automatic lighting setup
Customized lighting setup
With automatic lighting setup, user can simply select
the best image from thumbnail of candidate images.
A more detailed set up is possible with the customized
lighting setup while looking at the image.
Built-in lighting camera that enables an advanced automatic lighting
The Built-in lighting camera and improved controller brings
about an even higher degree of automatic lighting. With this
camera you can produce up to a maximum of 1296 patterns of
reflective lighting making the chore of choosing lighting
equipment unnecessary. The lighting setup can be managed as
digital data so it is possible to store the optimal setup for each
job, and it smoothly handles the changing of settings. It is also
possible to fine-tune the customized setup can be added.

Draw region, press and go
The measurement method can be specified by just choosing
the icon from out of a total of 9 measurement items for
different types of inspection.
Just specify the region of interest and press Auto key and
the system will determine the most suitable parameters for
the target image.
Now anyone can easily perform a complex and advanced
parameter setting which used to require special knowledge

Customized setting is also possible by fine tuning the
parameters automatically set up. The time required to set up
parameters can be significantly reduced.

3-step position correction
Even when the position of work changes due to the
conveyer condition, the excellent position correction
function can come into play allowing adjustment using
the work contours, two stage position correction and so
on. With the auto setup, position difference can be easily
adjusted to enable stable measurement.
