Opto Engineering MC3M Macro Lenses
For sensors up to 1.1" with nearly zero distortion*

Opto Engineering MC3M macro lens Opto Engingeering MC3M macro lenses are optimized for sensors up to 1.1". They are designed for macro applications to work at a fixed working distance to capture small objects with nearly zero distortion. MC3M Series high resolution macro lenses are available in magnifications from 0.1x to 6x. Due to their high resolution, compact size (30 mm outer diameter), near zero distortion, and very high quality at an attractive price, MC3M macro lenses are widely used for close-up, high precision machine vision applications such as inspection and parts positioning.

  • Designed for sensors up to 1.1"
  • Near zero distortion*
  • Compact macro lens - 30 mm outer diameter
  • High resolution

Opto Engineering macro lenses work with a variety of sensor sizes, and are available in a wide range of magnifications. Our Sales Engineers can provide expert advice and guidance on selecting the right lens for your machine vision macro imaging application. Please contact us if you would like more information.

*Image distortion is the percent deviation of the real image acquired by the optics compared to an ideal, undistorted image. Our macro lenses feature "Nearly Zero Distortion", which means that although perfection is hardly reachable, the maximum distortion is designed to be as close to zero as possible.

Notes

  1. Working distance: distance between the front end of the mechanics and the object. Set this distance within ±3% of the nominal value for maximum resolution and minimum distortion.
  2. Working f-number (wf/N): the real f-number of a lens in operating conditions.
  3. Percent deviation of the real image compared to an ideal, undistorted image.
  4. At the borders of the field depth the image can be still used for measurement but, to get a very sharp image, only half of the nominal field depth should be considered. Pixel size used for calculation is 3.45 μm.
  5. Object side, calculated with the Rayleigh criterion with λ= 520 nm
  6. Measured from the front end of the mechanics to the camera flange.
