iRAYPLE AE5200MG010E / AE5200CG010E

AE5200MG010E

The iRAYPLE AE5200 is an AE-series industrial area scan camera using the 1/1.7" Sony Pregius IMX430 global-shutter CMOS sensor at 1624x1240 resolution (4.5 um pixels) and 60 fps over a Gigabit Ethernet interface with PoE support. It offers 10-bit output (Mono8/10/10Packed on the mono model), 60 dB dynamic range, 38 dB SNR, exposure from 1 us to 1 s, gain 1-32, and a 256 MB on-board image buffer for resend. The camera uses a C-mount, is powered via PoE or 9-24 VDC (~3.8 W at 12 V), and conforms to GigE Vision V2.0 and the GenICam standard with CE/RoHS compliance. Software, hardware, and free-run triggers are supported through a 6-pin Hirose connector with one opto-isolated input and one opto-isolated output.

Technical overview

The iRAYPLE AE5200MG010E is a 2 MP (1624 x 1240) area scan camera built around the Sony Pregius IMX430, a 1/1.7-inch global-shutter CMOS sensor with 4.5 um square pixels. Global shutter is the headline characteristic here: every pixel starts and stops integrating light at the same instant, so parts moving through the field of view, indexed on a turntable, or carried on a fast conveyor are captured without the skew, smear, or geometric distortion that a rolling shutter would introduce. At 60 fps across the full frame, the camera is fast enough to sustain high-throughput inspection of discrete parts, and the 1 us to 1 s exposure range lets you freeze motion with very short integration times when paired with bright strobed lighting. With 4.5 um pixels on a 2 MP sensor, this is a moderate-resolution, motion-tolerant workhorse rather than a high-pixel-count detail camera, which is exactly what you want for repeatable presence/absence, gauging, and code-reading on a line.

The interface is Gigabit Ethernet (1000BASE-T) conforming to GigE Vision V2.0 and GenICam, with Power over Ethernet support so a single Cat-5e/6 cable can carry both image data and power. That single-cable simplicity, plus cable runs that can reach much farther than USB before requiring repeaters, makes GigE a practical choice for distributed cells and multi-camera stations. The camera also accepts 9-24 VDC power directly and draws about 3.8 W at 12 V, so it runs cool in tight enclosures. A 256 MB on-board image buffer backs the GigE Vision resend mechanism, which helps recover dropped packets on a loaded or noisy network so frames are not lost during continuous acquisition. The mono model outputs Mono8/Mono10/Mono10Packed; with 10-bit depth, 60 dB dynamic range, and 38 dB SNR, it has the tonal headroom for grayscale measurement and contrast-sensitive surface work, while the color AE5200CG010E variant covers tasks that depend on hue.

Mechanically the camera uses a C-mount, the standard interface for this 1/1.7-inch format, so it pairs with a wide range of fixed-focal-length machine-vision lenses; choose the focal length from your working distance and required field of view, and verify the lens resolves the 4.5 um pixel pitch. Triggering and I/O run through a 6-pin Hirose connector providing one opto-isolated input and one opto-isolated output, supporting software, hardware, and free-run modes. The opto-isolated input is the clean way to synchronize exposure to an encoder pulse or a part-present sensor, while the opto-isolated output can fire a strobe controller or signal a reject actuator. In a compact 29 x 29 x 42 mm body weighing 98 g, rated for 0 to +50 degC and carrying CE/RoHS compliance, it is straightforward to mount on a robot arm, a gantry, or a fixed inspection bracket.

Best for

  • Inline defect and surface inspection of parts moving on a conveyor or indexer, where the global shutter eliminates motion distortion at 60 fps
  • Dimensional gauging and measurement of small to mid-size components, using the 10-bit mono output and 2 MP resolution for repeatable edge and feature extraction
  • OCR/OCV and 1D/2D code reading on packaging, electronics, and labels, triggered per-part through the opto-isolated input
  • Multi-camera GigE inspection cells where PoE single-cable wiring and long Ethernet runs simplify installation
  • Battery, semiconductor, and pharma stations needing a compact, cool-running (3.8 W) camera in a tight enclosure across a 0 to +50 degC range

Selection notes

  • Pick the variant by task: AE5200MG010E (mono) for the best contrast and effective resolution on grayscale measurement and surface work; AE5200CG010E (color) only when hue carries the information you need to inspect.
  • At 2 MP with 4.5 um pixels this is a moderate-resolution camera; if your smallest defect or feature needs more pixels-on-target than 1624 x 1240 provides at your field of view, plan a higher-resolution model or a tighter FOV with multiple cameras.
  • Budget the GigE link: 1000BASE-T sustains 60 fps at this resolution, but use a quality Cat-5e/6 cable, a NIC that supports jumbo frames, and rely on the 256 MB buffer with packet resend to keep acquisition clean on busy networks.
  • Plan power and I/O early: PoE needs a PoE switch or injector, or wire 9-24 VDC directly; trigger and strobe go through the 6-pin Hirose with one opto-isolated input and one opto-isolated output, so confirm that single in/single out covers your encoder, part-present, and reject signaling needs.
  • Specify the lens for the format and pixel pitch: this is a C-mount, 1/1.7-inch sensor, so choose a C-mount lens that covers the format and resolves 4.5 um pixels, and pair short exposures (down to 1 us) with adequate strobed lighting to freeze motion.
