Cuts husked ears of corn. Capacity of 110 ears/minute. Machine primarily comprised of a feeder belt and a rotating bowl that allows for transfer of cobs on a corn belt one after the other and correctly aligned, of an automatic “head first” orientation system of the ears and of a cutting head comprised of 6 blades arranged like a diaphragm of a camera. The orientation system is also capable of “diverting” ears that are too short. Self clearing of the cutter head is case of jams. The cutter requires the dedicated WKS blade sharpener.

Automatic Number Place Recognition Cameras otherwise known as ANPRs; are camera devices designed to work at certain wavelengths (dependent on Country) to read a license plate’s number of a vehicle to then track it through a database to identify any criminal offences links to that car, such as uninsured; stolen; major and organised crime; and even terrorism. They are typically installed on motorways; busy roads around cities and towns; and also on police cars as well as specialised ANPR police vans. Knight Optical offers Colour Glass Filters for such an application, be it either long pass or bandpass filters. The wavelengths typically used by ANPR camera companies are: 695nm; 740nm; 810nm; 850nm; 910nm and 940nm Read PDF for more information

Our precision grade N-BK7 windows are often used to seal optical enclosures & act as a protective window for the optical and electrical component behind the window, particularly within CCTV and ANPR systems where there is a risk of damage. N-BK7 provides excellent transmission in the visible and near infrared spectrum which can be enhanced still with our Anti Reflective coatings. Our stock range of ¼ wave N-BK7 or equivalent windows are supplied either uncoated or with the option of an Anti-Reflective coating on both faces with extended BBAR for visible and NIR applications within the 450-900nm wavelength range. We can also offer custom solutions for your application, whether it is a custom size or a coating to optimise a different wavelength range, beamsplitter coated or mirror coated to meet your bespoke requirements.

We can supply you with a custom made Diamond turned aspheric lenses for use within Thermal Imaging Cameras. Thermal Imaging Cameras work similarly to traditional visible camera systems; while traditional cameras form images using visible light; thermal cameras form images using infrared radiation; operating in wavelengths as long as 14µm. Spherical aberration occurs in common singlet lenses, which results in an image that appears distorted, aspheric lenses correct spherical aberration. An aspheric lens surface is designed non-spherical, which allows a single component lens to collimate or focus highly divergent rays, potentially replacing a multi-lens system. This in turn provides the camera system with a better image quality. Knight Optical offers diamond turned aspherics from a range of infrared materials including Germanium (Ge), Calcium Fluoride (CaF₂), Zinc Sulphide (ZnS), Zinc Selenide (ZnSe), Aluminium (Al) and chalcogenide glasses like AMTIR (Ge33As12Se55 ) PDF FOR INFO

Knight Optical offer a range of Stock Polarisers that can be used in the study of insect vision. Insects exhibit sensitivity to linear polarised light. Insects polarise light in their vision for a number of reasons such as reducing glare and to increase contrast. This is also widespread practice in most modern cameras to help ensure the resulting image is as sharp as possible. Additionally, recently the study of insect vision has allowed researchers to modify camera systems incorporated in aerial drones to help fly independently through dense forests by assessing light intensity to avoid other objects. Knight Optical works with many leading research institutions in the field of insect vision. Knight Optical also keep stock a UV and NIR range of sheet polarisers. In particular our HNP’B replacement UV polariser which has excellent performance from 250-750nm is utilised heavily within the research of arthropod vision. Read PDF for more information

Optical Sorting Systems are a widely utilized technology used within the food industry; most particularly used in processing harvested foods such as fruits and vegetables, most notably potatoes, and nuts. Optical sorting was designed to help improve product quality, maximize throughput and increase yields. Within an optical sorting system there are four main components, the feed system, the optical system, the image processing software and last the separation system. The optical system utilizes lights and sensors housed above and below the flow of the products being inspected. It works by using a combination of light and sensors to illuminate objects; and to do this Beam-Splitters are one of the optical components used. Within the camera used in the system a Beam-Splitter cube is used to divide the light source coming from a single lens, into different channels; and each channel is filtered to a specific spectral region Read PDF for more data

RK monitor mounting – high-strength, flexible and individually adaptable VESA or universal mount for connecting monitors, displays or control panels. Monitors, touch screens, displays and control panels are used every day, and not just in the office. Industrial machines and systems are programmed or performance data displayed on modern touch screens or control panels. In utility vehicles, camera monitoring systems facilitate resetting and navigation devices make positioning possible. On conveyors, monitors make it possible to monitor and visualise all sorts of processes. Today, control panels or flat screens are often an essential component of modern assembly workstations, too. Standard systems are generally designed for office applications. Industrial environments push these monitor mountings to their limits. For example, they normally can carry loads of only six to twelve kilograms and are not robust enough for use on machines, systems or assembly workstations.

Pattern and distortion control The leading pattern detection system using camera technology. The repetitions of printed, woven or tufted patterns are evaluated according to certain algorithms and are used for measuring, correcting and evaluating distortions and patterns. The system uses one or two cameras, depending on the width of the product, to detect the position of the pattern and automatically and continuously determine the pattern repeat, as well as the product width, and together with a straightening machine align the product distortion based on the recognized pattern.
