Rotoclear
C Basic vs.
Rotoclear C2
The differences between the two camera systems
The Rotoclear C Basic is the basic version of the Rotoclear C2. At the same time, it offers the possibility to easily upgrade to the full version of the Rotoclear C2 at any time - and thus to expand the functional range of the camera system accordingly.
All that is required is to replace the HDMI box of the Rotoclear C Basic with the control unit of the Rotoclear C2. The camera head, mount, sealing air supply and data cable can still be used.
We have summarized the range of functions offered by the two camera systems for you here.
| Features | Rotoclear C Basic | Rotoclear C2 |
|---|---|---|
| Number of perspectives | Only one camera head possible |
One or two camera heads selectable |
| Depending on the camera system, you can observe machining processes from one or two perspectives simultaneously. | ||
| Type of perspectives | Top View or Side View typical | Top, Side or Tool view possible. |
| The camera heads can be installed on the ceiling of the machine interior (Top View), on the wall (Side View) or directly on the spindle (Tool View). | Tool View also possible | |
| Focus options |  |
|
| The encapsulation to protect the camera heads imposes a fixed focus. However, you can choose between lenses with different focal lengths. |
F1: 200-500 mm (close range) F2: 500-6,000 mm (far range) |
F1: 200-500 mm (close range) F2: 500-6,000 mm (far range) F1+F2: 200-500 und 500-6,000 mm (Camera head with two lenses for close and far range) |
| Lens | Wide angle | Wide angle |
| A wide-angle lens is installed as standard, which is perfectly suitable for most applications. Alternatively, lenses with longer focal lengths can be installed. |
Aperture: f 2.8 Focal length: 3.9 mm Field of view of 74.7° horizontal and 46.5° vertical |
Aperture: f 2.8 Focal length: 3.9 mm Field of view of 74.7° horizontal and 46.5° vertical |
| Rotating window for clear view | |
|
| A fast spinning window in front of the lens always provides a clear view of your machining processes where it would otherwise be obscured by coolant and chips. | ||
| Resolution | 4K | 4K |
| The camera systems can produce images in a resolution of up to 4K. The resolution during observation depends on the monitor and, in the case of the Rotoclear C2, on the transmission rate. |
HDMI 4K in 60 and 30 fps FullHD and HD in 60 fps |
HDMI 4K in 60 and 30 fps FullHD and HD in 60 fps Web 4K, FullHD and HD each in 60, 30, 15, 10, 5 or 1 fps |
| Zoom | |
|
| Both camera systems offer 3x zoom with movable section of the image area. Easy to operate by mouse and touch. | ||
| High-performance light | |
|
| Perfect illumination of the observed machining processes | ||
