The BVS Cockpit software lets users intuitively configure and operate Balluff SmartCameras and industrial cameras with a SmartVision controller (or with any machine vision system compatible with Gen<i>cam in your facility) without the need for added software.
“The Balluff BVS Cockpit software eliminates the need to manage multiple software applications or to have advanced knowledge of machine vision software. There are no hidden costs, and no need for software installation, since it comes preinstalled on the SmartVision controller and SmartCamera,” said Dan Simmons, Balluff technical sales specialist.
The cameras and BVS Cockpit software provide intelligent, easy-to-use vision tools and functions to control and monitor all aspects of machine vision systems. All the functions to set up and operate the cameras are in the BVS Cockpit user interface, which can be easily accessed from any common web browser connected to the local network.
For traceability, error-proofing, vision-guided robotics, and other applications, BVS Cockpit does what sensors can’t, with reliability and speed.
Key features include:
- BVS Cockpit software is based on HALCON technology
- Easy-to-use graphical user interface accessible from a web browser
- Use web-based application to manage multiple cameras
- Automatically create results reports, and save and archive images

Cables and wires in industrial robots and other moving machine parts are often required to withstand extreme stresses caused by torsion. Constant repetitive movements put materials under considerable strain. At the same time, operators expect components to function perfectly and reliably throughout their entire service life to avoid disruptions, outages and safety hazards.
For this reason, at HELUKABEL, we simulate intensive and continuous torsion stresses under realistic conditions with our high-tech testing equipment in Windsbach. We have several types of apparatus for doing this because some of our customers, for example those in the automotive industry, have very precise specifications for how a torsion test is carried out. The tests show that our cables and wires withstand speeds up to 1,000°/s, accelerations up to 2,000°/s² and torsion angles up to 720°. Hence, we make sure that each product always meets our customers’ high standards, and that they receive the impeccable quality they rightly expect from us as a leading supplier of cables, wires and accessories for more than 40 years.
