Rayco Clear Plates for Inspection

Rayco Clear base plates are used for optical inspection applications. A plate is typically built to fit your specific optical inspectionj machine. The clear plate may be mounted in an aluminum frame, which includes mounting holes specific to the stage of your vision system. The frames are cast aluminum with a protective hardcoat surface. Probe racks and calibration plates may be mounted to the frame.

The plates are available with either M4 (Metric) or 1/4-20 (Standard) threaded holes for use with Rayco components. A small area in the center of the cast acrylic plate does not have threaded holes. This clear area allows for back-lighting very small parts. The transparent area of the base plate extends slightly past the measuring range to optimize part staging.

The clear base plates are either 0.75" (19mm) or 0.875" (22mm) thick, dpeneding on the size.

Small acrylic plates are also available frameless. The plain plates are 0.375" (9mm) thick. The frameless clear plates are available in a wide cariety of sizes.

A base plate can be made to cover the entire measuring volume of the vision machine, or a frame can be provided that mounts smaller subplates in the measurement window. The acrylic base plates can be customized in many ways to better fit your application.
