1083281

Overview

The SICK model 1083281 is a Visionary-S CX industrial 3D snapshot camera designed for factory automation. It utilizes stereo vision principles to provide real-time color depth images with a resolution of 640 px x 512 px and sub-millimeter depth accuracy. The device captures over 320,000 depth and color intensity values per frame at speeds up to 30 frames per second. It features an integrated antenna and outputs raw color and depth data via Gigabit Ethernet. The unit operates in temperatures from 0°C to 50°C depending on the heatsink variant and carries an IP67 enclosure rating.

Feature Summary

• Provides real-time color depth images using 3D Snapshot technology
• Outputs raw color and depth values directly via Gigabit Ethernet
• Operates reliably in absolute darkness or under high ambient light conditions
• Supports direct configuration using SOPAS ET software

Applications

• Robotics guidance and navigation
• Internal logistics and material handling
• Quality assurance tasks in production environments

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix code (e.g., -1090185 for short heatsink or -1090184 for long heatsink) associated with part number 1083281 to ensure correct thermal performance for your operating temperature range. Confirm that the required interface protocols match the Visionary-S CX specifications. Ensure compatibility with existing SOPAS ET configuration tools before procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when raw color and depth data streaming via Ethernet is required without onboard application processing. Choose the short heatsink variant if the ambient temperature does not exceed 40°C and space is limited. Opt for the long heatsink variant if continuous operation at temperatures up to 50°C is necessary. This model differs from the AP version by lacking programmable AppSpace capabilities.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Visionary-S family of 3D vision sensors from SICK. It represents the CX (Camera eXtreme) variant, which focuses on high-speed data output rather than onboard computation. It complements the AP (Application Processor) models by providing a streamlined solution for applications where image processing is handled by external systems or controllers.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other Visionary-S CX variants with different heatsink options (-1090184 or -1090185). Upgrades to Visionary-S AP models are possible if onboard application development via SICK AppSpace becomes necessary.
