Micro-Imagechecker AX30/AX40
Additional Features of the AX40
1 System – 4 inspection modes
AX40 commands four different inspection modes: colour, binary, grey-scale and differential image processing. Combined with a
large pool of ready-made and easy-to-configure inspection functions such as 360° contour-matching and smart matching, AX40
can handle nearly any inspection task.
Data monitor
Up to 50 inspection results are displayed
on the monitor in chart form for operator
verification. Also, threshold adjustment
(upper and lower limit values) can be
changed on the data monitor without
entering them in the setting menu.
Full colour
LCH mode for human-eye like colour
inspection
Suitable for various inspection tasks
such as sorting, counting, parts
recognition, etc.
Grey scale
256 grey tones for precise
measurement, positioning, etc.
Differential
Extracts edges/changes in the
image data
Ideal method e.g. for surface
inspection
Binary
A reduction of the image data to black
and white pixels allows fastest
inspection
Statistical support
Data can be tracked, e.g. as maximum
value, minimum value, average value,
and number of NG (no-good) results.
Maximum, minimum, average and other
OK judgment values can be verified,
which is useful as a guide for making
upper and lower limit settings.

Smart matching
Grey scale matching makes sub-pixel
positional detection possible
Furthermore, shape inspection, such as
for the detection of chipped objects, can
be carried out simultaneously with the
grey scale difference processing
function

Numerical calculation/judgement
output
The computation function, which has
been troublesome up to now, now can
be easily made, even by beginners.
Also, operation has become even easier
thanks to the ability to set both
numerical calculation and judgement
output on the same screen.
