PCPW optics provide eight different views of an object's side and top surfaces. The wide angle of view (45°) enables the inspection of the side features of an object (for example, the threads of a screw or a nut) otherwise impossible to acquire with a single camera.
The external walls of an object and its top can be imaged simultaneously, while the internal surfaces of hollow objects can be completely inspected from the outside. A combined view of the internal and external surfaces is possible and an image displaying both the inner walls and the bottom of a cavity can be obtained. In addition to these unique features, PCPW optics ensure excellent image resolution and brightness.
