16 MM 5 MP C-Mount Machine Vision Lens for 2/3-Inch Industrial Sensors
Kyptec Automation® supplies a 16 MM 5 Megapixel Machine Vision Lens for industrial cameras using the 2/3-inch image format. The lens features a C-mount mechanical interface and an F1.6–16 aperture range, providing an effective combination of moderately wide imaging geometry and strong light-gathering capability.
The 16 MM focal length provides broader field coverage than 25 MM or 35 MM optics when used on the same sensor and at the same working distance. This can reduce the camera distance required to capture a defined object width, making focal length particularly important when machine-space constraints limit the available optical path.
Its 5 MP resolution specification provides the optical resolving capability necessary for compatible camera sensors while maintaining a balanced system architecture. Effective image quality depends on contrast transfer through the lens, accurate focus and suitable illumination—not simply the nominal megapixel count of the camera.
The F1.6 maximum aperture permits substantial light transmission, while the adjustable aperture through F16 gives engineers the ability to increase depth of field when additional illumination is available. Correct pairing with the 2/3-inch sensor format also helps maintain appropriate image-circle coverage.
The result is a compact, technically balanced machine vision optic for systems that need relatively wide coverage without moving to the shortest focal lengths.
