di-soricBE SeriesMachine Vision Lighting

Industrial Lighting for Machine Vision

di-soric's BE series of LED lighting systems is built for contrast amplification in machine vision and image processing applications. The portfolio covers seven distinct lighting geometries — area, bar, spot, ring, coaxial, dark field, and dome. Products are available in all application-relevant color temperatures and are distinguished by features such as load-free trigger, trigger inversion, and brightness adjustment.

Key Features

Full range of lighting geometries (area, bar, spot, ring, coaxial, dark field, dome) for any inspection scenario and installation constraint.
Available in all application-relevant light colors and color temperatures to match camera sensitivity and target material.
Load-free trigger and trigger inversion for synchronizing illumination precisely with camera exposure.
Brightness adjustment available on select models for optimizing contrast to the specific application.
High protection class for integration in industrial production environments.
Designed for use alongside di-soric vision sensors and third-party machine vision cameras.

Applications

Surface defect detection on machined, stamped, or printed components using dark field or coaxial illumination.
Label presence, OCR, and barcode reading with homogeneous barlight or ring illumination.
Contour and outline detection of objects against a lit or dark background using area or bar lights.
Shadow-free inspection of reflective or scratched surfaces using dome illumination.
Axial illumination with reflection suppression for reading engraved or embossed features using coaxial lights.
Component presence and position verification on assembly lines.
Pharmaceutical and food industry inspection requiring consistent, trigger-synchronized illumination.

Product Family Overview

Series	Type	Illumination Style	Primary Use
BE-F	Area lights	Uniform background illumination	Contour and outline detection; camera top-view background; silhouette imaging
BE-B	Barlights	Intense, homogeneous linear bar	Surface and outline detection on elongated objects; web and sheet inspection
BE-P	Spotlights	Focused, targeted spot	Narrow installation spaces; surface and outline detection; multiple beam angles available
BE-R	Ringlights	Symmetrical, shadow-free ring	Shadow-free illumination for surface and outline detection; diffuser and polarizer options
BE-K	Coaxial lights	Axial, on-axis illumination	Shadow-free illumination; suppression of surface reflections; engraved / embossed features
BE-D	Darkfield lights	Grazing, transverse-to-camera	Surface defect enhancement; scratches, burrs, and texture contrast amplification
BE-DOME	Dome lights	Extremely diffuse spherical	Reflective, curved, or scratched surfaces; maximum shadow suppression; robust feature contrast

Selecting the Right Lighting Geometry

Use bright-field lighting when:

You need to see the shape or outline of an object against a bright background (area lights, ringlights).
You need even, shadow-free illumination across the whole surface (dome or ringlight).
The target has engraved, printed, or embossed features requiring on-axis illumination (coaxial).

Use dark-field lighting when:

You need to reveal surface texture, scratches, cracks, burrs, or edges through grazing illumination.
The surface is highly reflective and bright-field imaging saturates or washes out the defect.
You need high contrast on subtle height differences on a flat surface.
