The Schneider Group has introduced the MacroVaron 85mm f4.5 lens, which utilizes Schneider-Kreuznach’s new Continuous Aberration Suppression (CAS) technology. The new MacroVaron lens (MRV 4.5/85 CAS 0.5X-2.0X) enables system integrators and equipment manufacturers to improve the reliability and flexibility of quality assurance processes in production inspection systems. Schneider-Kreuznach’s unique CAS technology within the lens enables the use of ultra-high-resolution down to 2.5 microns over a magnification range from 0.5X to 2.0X.

A 62mm image circle, low distortion and excellent chromatic correction make the MacroVaron lens practical for high-resolution line scan applications up to 12k (and down to 5 micron-pixel sizes), such as those used in flat panel display (FPD) and printed circuit board (PCB) inspection systems.
The relative illumination of the lens is virtually constant over the entire image height, enabling the use of the full size of the sensor. This uniformity of light eliminates the need for electronic compensation, thus minimizing the noise of the camera signal. The 85mm focal length of the MacroVaron lens reduces the required working distance, which decreases the space needed for the camera-lens assembly. Available now. $6,275.00 MSRP
