The Computar V1640-MPZ-R is a 16mm ruggedized C-mount machine vision lens for 20MP 1" format cameras, featuring F4.0 optics, ultra-low distortion, 2.4µm pixel compatibility, floating focus design, and 10G/15G vibration and shock resistance for harsh industrial imaging environments.
Computar V1640-MPZ-R 16mm Ruggedized Machine Vision Lens
The Computar V1640-MPZ-R is a 16mm ruggedized machine vision lens designed for high-resolution 20 megapixel imaging on 1" format sensors. Built for demanding industrial vision environments, this C-mount lens combines high-resolution optical performance, ultra-low distortion, and rugged mechanical durability for factory automation, robotics, inspection, traffic monitoring, surveillance, and other machine vision applications.
The V1640-MPZ-R features a fixed F4.0 iris, 16mm focal length, and 2.4µm pixel compatibility, making it a strong choice for modern high-density industrial image sensors. The 16mm focal length provides a practical field of view for inspection systems that require more coverage than longer focal lengths while still maintaining the detail needed for accurate image analysis, measurement, and defect detection.
Engineered as part of Computar’s MPZ-R ruggedized lens series, the V1640-MPZ-R is built to withstand anti-vibration levels up to 10G and anti-shock levels up to 15G. This ruggedized design helps maintain lens stability and image consistency in environments where cameras may be exposed to vibration, motion, impact, or continuous equipment operation.
The floating focus design supports excellent image quality from minimum object distance to infinity, while the ultra-low distortion optics help improve measurement accuracy and edge-to-edge image reliability. With a compact and lightweight build, the V1640MPZR is well suited for space-constrained industrial camera installations, embedded vision systems, and automated inspection equipment.
