KEYENCE 2D Vision Systems

KEYENCE XG, CV-X, XG-X, and VS series provide imaging and processing tools for industrial machine vision. For supported 2D robot vision configurations, Ethernet communication and Lua scripts connect the vision system with DOBOT CRA series robots. The integration supports communication, calibration workflows, and positioning-data exchange for application-specific robot guidance. Vision tasks are configured in the appropriate KEYENCE software, while robot motion and application logic are developed in DobotStudio Pro. Applicable scripts and setup procedures depend on the selected series and hardware configuration.

Product Highlights

Script-Based Robot Integration
Lua scripts exchange commands and positioning data over TCP/IP, supporting customized robot guidance programs developed in DobotStudio Pro.
VS: AI and Rules-Based Inspection
The VS series combines AI and rule-based inspection tools in a smart camera, with optical zoom and software-based image adjustment for different inspection tasks.
CV-X: Guided Inspection Setup
The CV-X series uses an icon-driven tool catalog and application guidance to configure inspection tasks, including part detection, measurement, and assembly verification.
XG-X: Customizable Vision Processing
The XG-X series provides flowchart programming through XG-X VisionEditor, allowing developers to configure image-processing sequences and application-specific inspection logic.

Application

Vision-Guided Pick and Place
Locate workpieces and provide positioning results for robot pick-and-place programs using a calibrated 2D vision configuration.

Part Alignment and Position Correction
Use detected workpiece position and orientation to adjust programmed robot target positions within the configured vision application.

Inspection and Assembly Verification
KEYENCE vision tools inspect part presence, assembly conditions, and visible defects according to the selected system and inspection program.
