Mako G
G-030

• Trigger over Ethernet
• Piecewise Linear HDR feature
• IEEE 1588 PTP
• Ultra-compact design

Compact machine vision camera with high frame rate

Mako G-030 is a 0.3 megapixel GigE machine vision camera that incorporates the high quality Type 1/3 (5.9 mm diagonal) CMOSIS/ams CMV300 CMOS sensor. At full resolution, this camera runs 309 frames per second. With a smaller region of interest, higher frame rates are possible. 

Mako cameras have the same ultra-compact form factor and the same mounting positions as many analog cameras. All models include Power over Ethernet, three opto-isolated outputs, and a 64 MB image buffer. The image quality profits from the precisely aligned sensor. By default monochrome models ship with no optical filter and color models ship with a Type Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter.

Benefits and features:

• Monochrome (G-030B) and color (G-030C) models
• GigE Vision interface with Power over Ethernet
• Screw mount RJ45 Ethernet connector for secure operation in industrial environments
• Supports cable lengths up to 100 meters (CAT-6 recommended)
• Comprehensive I/O functionality for simplified system integration
• Trigger over Ethernet Action Commands allow for a single cable solution to reduce system cost
• IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol allows for easy synchronization of multiple cameras and devices on network
• Popular C-Mount lens mount
• Easy camera mounting via standard M3 threads on top and bottom of housing or optional tripod adapter
• Easy software integration with Allied Vision's Vimba Suite and compatibility to the most popular third party image-processing libraries. 
• Defect pixel masking feature with the Defect Mask Loader tool that allows you to manage a user defined defective pixel list to match your application and optimize the life cycle of the camera.
• Select between B 270 ASG protection glass and filter types: Jenofilt 217 IR cut filter, Hoya C-5000 IR cut filter, RG715 IR pass filter, or RG830 IR pass filter

Availability

When selecting a machine vision camera, the availability of the camera in the long term is an important selection criterion. Our online camera selector provides information on the availability of each camera model to help you choose the right camera for your needs. There are 4 categories related to the life cycle of each camera:

Coming soon	Camera models that will be released shortly but are not available in series production yet.
Available	State-of-the art cameras that are available and recommended for new design-ins. For these cameras, you can rely on long-term availability and support.
Not for new designs	Legacy camera models. They are still fully available to secure long-term supply to existing customers. However, if you plan a completely new design, we recommend that you look for a more recent alternative in the “Available” category.
Discontinued	A last-time-buy notification has already been distributed for these cameras. If you have been using them in your system for a long time, please place your orders before the last-time-buy deadline. See all discontinuations in the Product Change Notification section.

Please contact our sales team if you need more information on product availability!
