Allied Vision MG-235B-ASG Machine Vision Camera

The Allied Vision Manta MG-235B-ASG is a monochrome GigE Vision machine-vision camera built around the Sony IMX174 1/1.2" global-shutter CMOS sensor, delivering 1936 × 1216 pixel images at up to 50.8 frames per second with a 12‑bit image depth. It uses a C‑mount lens interface and ships with ASG protective glass by default on monochrome models, providing protected imaging in industrial environments. Key parameters include exposure from 16 μs to 85.89 s (1 μs steps), gain from 0 to 40 dB (0.1 dB steps), and support for binning (1–4) and decimation (1, 2, 4, 8) to tune sensitivity and speed; the sensor features 5.86 μm pixels and a 13.4 mm diagonal, contributing to consistent image quality across a range of working distances. The camera includes a 128 MB image buffer and can hold up to 56 full‑resolution frames for processing, with power options of 12 VDC 2.8 W or PoE at 3.3 W. Widely used for routine machine‑vision tasks such as inspection and measurement in automated lines, the MG‑235B‑ASG provides a compact, reliable grayscale imaging solution with precise exposure and gain control for deterministic imaging workflows.
