Navitar, Inc. Unveils New Series of Large Format
Imaging Lenses
ROCHESTER,
NEW YORK -- September 19, 2006 – Navitar is pleased to
unveil a new series of large format imaging lenses designed specifically
for the line scan and large area sensor market. The Raptar Pro line was
created in response to the increased demand for lenses that are compatible
with larger-sized camera sensors for critical manufacturing and process
applications.
The first lens in the Raptar Pro series is the 1X Raptar Pro 86 mm. With
a nominal magnification of 1.0X, the 86 mm high resolution large format
lens can image on to sensors up to 90 mm with less than 0.1% distortion
– resulting in superior sharpness and exceptional contrast at apertures
ranging from F4-22.
Sized for 12k line scan sensors, the 1X Raptar Pro produces up to 100
lp/mm image space resolution and is optimized for working distances of
95 mm.
“This lens is ready for challenging applications,” comments
Donald Ehinger, Navitar’s Vice President of International Sales.
“The Raptar Pro lens can be used for inspection and viewing of objects
in numerous applications including machine vision, quality control inspection,
web inspection, biomedical imaging, product manufacturing, and more.”
Mounting options are available for T, C, F, and SLR camera formats and
a special rear coupler is available for the Dalsa 12k Piranha Series Cameras.
“Our customers have asked us for a range of lenses to work with
current and future line and area scan sensors,” comments Navitar’s
Vice President of Domestic Sales Craig Fitzgerald. “The 1X Raptar
Pro large format lens further expands our range of products that match
the performance abilities of the leading-edge pixel cameras with high
pixel counts and fast line rates.”
