Computar VL6Z1626UC-MPYIR 1.1”, 16-96mm, f2.6, 12MP, LensConnect (C-Mount) Lens

The Computar VL6Z1626UC-MPYIR is a high-performance motorized zoom machine vision lens engineered for precision imaging across a wide range of industrial and surveillance applications. Featuring a versatile 16–96mm focal range, this lens delivers exceptional flexibility—from mid-range inspection to long-distance detail capture—without requiring manual lens changes.

Designed for 1.1” large-format sensors and optimized for up to 12 megapixel resolution, the VL6Z1626UCMPYIR pairs seamlessly with sensors such as the Sony IMX183, ensuring sharp image reproduction with minimal distortion. Its IR-corrected optical design maintains focus accuracy across visible and near-infrared wavelengths, making it ideal for environments with mixed or IR illumination.

The integrated LensConnect (MPY) system enables full remote control of zoom, focus, and iris via USB, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and allowing for rapid system calibration and repeatability in automated environments. A floating focus mechanism maintains consistent image sharpness throughout the zoom range, while precision stepper motors provide fine, repeatable control—critical for machine vision, robotics, and inspection systems.
