Welcome to Machine Vision and UV Light Solutions from MERCRON Inc.

MERCRON is dedicated to providing high-end lamp controllers at low cost for Machine Vision Light Systems and UV curing applications, particularly to Color Imaging, high-speed Scanning, and high-resolution QC Inspection Systems.

Basically, if you need your light intensity to be held constant from millisecond to millisecond, there is no substitute for MERCRON Lamp Controllers.

See how MERCRON Lamp Controllers solve these common Machine Vision Light System problems:

1) The light level "drifts" from the selected intensity.
2) The camera sees 60 Hz ripple.
3) Light source disturbances confuse my camera.
4) The lamp decays, and the light changes as the temperature changes.
5) The need to change the light level in real time.
6) The need to maximize camera resolution.


Look with confidence: use MERCRON's Machine Vision Lamp Controllers to maximize your machine vision camera's performance.

MERCRON’s stock-in-trade is its Precision Illumination Control technology, using specially designed high-frequency ballasts to convert ordinary, industrial lamps into precision light sources for Machine Vision Light Systems. Our controllers not only drive, but regulate Fluorescent: Aperture, UV & IR; Tungsten; Metal Halide and HP Sodium lamps.


Don't trick your camera by changing the light.

If your system counts on every pixel, you need MERCRON’s light regulated Lamp Controllers.

MERCRON’s patented optical feedback circuit and high-ratio dimming are absolutely unique in the lamp ballast market. Light is held within ¼%.

Your light intensity will stay constant for the entire usable life of your lamp.
