Unleash the Power of Multi‑Camera Solutions
Reduce complexity. Cut costs. Simplify integration.
Multi-camera applications are indispensable in industrial image processing. At the same time, every additional camera increases integration effort, cabling, costs and overall system complexity.
With the Automation Camera System (ACS), Balluff introduces a new approach to industrial multi-camera applications. Instead of integrating cameras, cabling, controllers and interfaces as separate components, ACS combines all elements within one coordinated system architecture. Up to four cameras are connected and synchronized via a central Camera Master. This reduces engineering effort, simplifies integration and makes multi-camera applications more cost-effective.
Key benefits at a glance
Up to 75% less installation space
Compact M30 cameras with integrated optics and IP67 protection reduce space requirements and weight compared with conventional multi-camera systems.
Reduced system costs
Fewer components, less cabling and reduced engineering effort lower the total cost of ownership.
Less cabling
The single-cable architecture combines power supply, communication and control in one connection.
Faster integration and commissioning
A central system architecture, preconfigured camera variants and standardised interfaces simplify selection, integration and commissioning.
Scalable multi-camera architecture
Up to four cameras can be flexibly integrated into the system architecture without effort and complexity increasing proportionally.
Designed for tomorrow’s requirements
ACS combines modern multi-camera technology with a future-proof system architecture and supports CRA-compliant environments.
