IUC60000KPA-AFU Industrial Cameras/Analytical Imaging

Product Introduction

The IUC-AFU-EF series addresses high-resolution industrial and research scenarios requiring rapid, stable focusing, featuring APS-C and full frame (35 mm) large-format CMOS sensors with resolutions ranging from 26–60 MP. Equipped with electronic EF mount, the cameras directly control Canon EF/EF-S lens autofocus and electronic aperture, significantly simplifying system integration and enhancing focusing efficiency for multi-magnification and long working distance applications.

For connectivity, the series offers USB3.0 and 10GigE (model-dependent) high-speed data interfaces, supporting multi-bit depth output and internal buffering to meet high-bandwidth and long-distance acquisition requirements. The cameras support free-running, software/hardware triggering, and multi-camera synchronization, with optically isolated I/O for trigger/strobe control and programmable GPIO, facilitating coordination with light sources, motion platforms, and other peripherals.

Complete software ecosystem includes bundled ToupView and cross-platform SDK (Windows / Linux / macOS; C/C++/C#/Python, etc.), compatible with DirectShow / TWAIN, suitable for custom development and rapid deployment of integrated systems and OEM solutions.
