iRAYPLE AE5137MG010E

AE5137MG010E

The AE5137MG010E is part of iRAYPLE's AE series of Gigabit Ethernet area scan cameras, delivering 1280 x 1024 monochrome images at up to 90 fps over a 1 Gbps GigE interface with up to 100 m cable runs. It uses a CMOS sensor with 4.0 µm x 4.0 µm pixels and provides 256 MB of on-board cache for image buffering or resend. The camera conforms to GigE Vision V2.0 and the GenICam standard, supports software, hardware and free-run trigger modes, and includes ISP functions such as sharpness, denoising, gamma, LUT, black-level correction and contrast. It uses a C-mount and is powered via PoE or DC 9–24 V through a Hirose connector.

Technical overview

The iRAYPLE AE5137MG010E is a 1.31 MP (1280 x 1024) monochrome area scan camera built on a global-shutter CMOS sensor with 4.0 um square pixels, delivered over a standard GigE Vision V2.0 / GenICam interface. The global shutter is the headline characteristic for an installer: every pixel is exposed simultaneously, so parts moving on a conveyor or rotating in front of the camera are captured without the skew and smear that a rolling shutter introduces. Combined with the 90 fps frame rate, this makes the camera suited to inline inspection where product does not stop for imaging. At 1.31 MP the resolution is modest by today's standards, so this is a sensor for tasks where field coverage, speed and clean motion freezing matter more than capturing very fine detail across a large field of view; it is a strong fit for presence/absence checks, code reading, OCR/OCV and dimensional gauging over a constrained field rather than high-magnification surface metrology.

The GigE interface defines how this camera designs into a cell. A single Cat5e/Cat6 cable carries image data, and the camera can also be powered over PoE, supporting cable runs up to roughly 100 m without repeaters, which is convenient for distributed lines and machines where the controller sits far from the imaging station. Because it follows GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam, the camera is vendor-neutral at the software layer and will enumerate in any compliant SDK or third-party vision package. The 1 Gbps link sets the practical throughput ceiling: 1280 x 1024 frames at 90 fps fit comfortably within GigE bandwidth, and the 256 MB of on-board cache buffers bursts and supports image resend, smoothing delivery on a busy or imperfect network. Power is flexible with either PoE or DC 9-24 V through a Hirose connector at about 3.8 W at 12 V, so it can drop into either a PoE-switch architecture or a conventional 12/24 V machine supply.

Monochrome is the right reading for the optical and lighting design. Without a Bayer filter the sensor collects more light per pixel and resolves edges and contrast more crisply than an equivalent color part, which is exactly what defect, edge and code-reading algorithms want; it also means lighting wavelength is a free design variable, so the installer can pick red, blue or IR illumination to maximize contrast on the target. The C-mount and 4.0 um pixel pitch on the 1280 x 1024 sensor make standard C-mount machine-vision lenses a natural match; lens focal length should be chosen against the required field of view and working distance rather than assumed. The camera supports software, hardware and free-run trigger modes, so it pairs cleanly with a strobed light and an encoder or photoeye to freeze parts at a precise position, and the included ISP block (sharpness, denoising, gamma, LUT, black-level correction, contrast) lets you tune the image on-camera before it reaches the vision tool. The compact 29 x 29 x 42 mm, 88 g body and a wide -30 to +50 C operating range allow tight mounting and operation in harsher plant environments.

Best for

  • Inline presence/absence and defect inspection of parts moving on a conveyor, where the global shutter freezes motion at 90 fps without distortion
  • 1D/2D code reading and traceability where crisp monochrome contrast and fast triggered capture are needed on a moving line
  • Industrial OCR/OCV of printed text, date codes and lot markings on packaging and electronic components
  • Dimensional gauging and edge measurement over a constrained field of view in electronics, semiconductor and battery production
  • Surface inspection stations in pharma and packaging that need a compact, PoE-powered camera at the end of a long cable run

Selection notes

  • At 1.31 MP (1280 x 1024) this is a resolution-modest sensor: confirm the required field of view divided by your smallest feature still leaves enough pixels per feature before committing, and step up in resolution if you need fine detail over a wide field
  • The 1 Gbps GigE link comfortably carries 1280 x 1024 at 90 fps, but plan the network so this camera has dedicated bandwidth; rely on the 256 MB cache and image resend, and use jumbo frames and a quality NIC for stable throughput
  • Power architecture is a choice: PoE simplifies wiring to one cable and up to ~100 m, while the Hirose DC 9-24 V input suits cells already running a 12/24 V supply at about 3.8 W (at 12 V)
  • Pair the C-mount with a lens matched to the 4.0 um pixel pitch and your working distance; verify the lens resolves at the sensor's pixel size and covers the sensor's image circle
  • Being monochrome, design lighting and wavelength for contrast (red/blue/IR are all options) and use the hardware trigger with a strobe and encoder/photoeye to lock capture to part position; the global shutter is what makes that strobe-and-trigger scheme work
