This article provides selection guidance and detailed descriptions of the accessories for Mech-Eye Industrial 3D Camera.

Accessory Selection Guide

After selecting the appropriate camera model, you also need to choose the camera accessories based on actual requirements.

  • 1 Power module

  • 2 Camera Ethernet cable

  • 3 Calibration board

The power module is used to power the camera. Mech-Mind offers two power supply options: 24 VDC power supply and power adapter supply. Please choose one of the solutions based on your actual requirements. In industrial applications, it is recommended to use the 24 VDC power supply solution.

The camera Ethernet Cable is primarily used to connect the camera to an industrial PC (IPC) or other network devices, enabling data transmission. The camera must use the Ethernet cable provided by Mech-Mind. Based on your actual needs, you can choose the appropriate connector type and cable length. For detailed selection guidance, please refer to Camera Ethernet Cable Selection.

If the camera is used in 3D robot guidance, and 3D measurement and inspection scenarios, other accessories, such as an IPC and a license dongle (software licensing device), should also be selected based on project requirements. For detailed information, please refer to Select Other Accessories.

Power Module Selection

Please choose the appropriate power supply solution to determine the power module.

24 VDC Power Supply Solution

In the 24 VDC power supply solution, the power module consists of the camera’s DC power cable and a DC power supply device (such as a DIN rail power supply).

DC Power Cable

The camera must use the DC power cable provided by Mech-Mind. Mech-Mind offers DC power cables with M12 connectors in two types: straight and right-angle, and with various length options available for selection. Please choose the appropriate model of the DC power cable based on your requirements.
