The MIB-140™ provides an improved “waterfall” shaped illumination field in the inspection volume. The inspection volume is about 10 liters centered in the middle of the White / Black Background and has an increasing intensity as you approach the lamps. This system has a fairly flat illumination field from the vertical center and below. This is by far one of the most uniform inspection volumes available on single-sided illumination manual inspection booth.
Below is a 3D plot of the light intensity value along the depth centerline of the MIB-40. The MIB-140 light intensity map is very similar to the MIB-40 light intensity map at a specific light output setting. The map below was generated at 3,750 Lux and the map of the MIB-140 is identical. The MIB-140 implements a Top illumination system, the light enters the inspection volume only from the top. This system is designed to meet the EP lighting specification. Note: Probability of Detection is directly related to the amount of light in the inspection volume. With a Single-Sided illumination system it is important to inspect at a consistent distance from the illumination sources.
