In applications like laser deburring or conductive film processing, the HR-UC2 delivers micron-level precision. It can simultaneously remove resin毛刺 (resin burrs) from IC封装 while engraving identification marks, eliminating secondary processes and reducing cycle times4. Similarly, in新能源 (new energy) industries, it supports high-precision加工 (processing) of ITO films for circuit patterning, replacing traditional wet etching methods and minimizing chemical waste

The HR-UC2 is designed for compatibility with industrial networks like PROFINET and Modbus, enabling seamless data exchange with PLCs and MES (Manufacturing Execution Systems). For example, in smart factories, it can relay inspection results to KEYENCE KV-series PLCs or third-party systems via protocol conversion gateways, facilitating real-time process adjustments1013. This interoperability reduces downtime and enhances production agility, aligning with Industry 4.0 trends.

The HR-UC2 plays a pivotal role in traceability systems, enabling permanent marking of QR codes, DataMatrix, or serial numbers on components. For example, in automotive and electronics sectors, it ensures high-contrast, low-damage laser刻印 (laser marking) on connectors, battery cells, or IC封装, even in confined spaces. This supports compliance with stringent traceability standards, such as those in electric vehicle (EV) battery production, where全程追溯 (full-process tracking) is essential411.

KEYENCE’s proprietary algorithms further enhance marking quality by adjusting laser parameters dynamically, preventing issues like overheating or模糊刻印 (blurred markings)

The HR-UC2 excels in visual inspection tasks, particularly in industries requiring stringent quality assurance, such as electronics and pharmaceuticals. For instance, it can perform rapid defect detection on miniature components like IC封装 (IC packages) or PCB boards, ensuring precise alignment and flawless surface finishes. This capability aligns with KEYENCE’s expertise in laser marking and image processing, where high-resolution cameras and algorithms enable real-time defect identification, even on ultra-thin or reflective surfaces47.

In pharmaceutical manufacturing, the HR-UC2 supports critical inspections of medical devices like syringes and rubber stoppers, where minor deviations in dimensions or surface integrity could compromise safety. Its ability to operate in vibration-prone environments makes it ideal for production lines requiring both speed and reliability

The KEYENCE HR-UC2 is a cutting-edge industrial automation solution designed to address the evolving demands of modern manufacturing. As part of KEYENCE’s renowned HR series, the HR-UC2 integrates advanced sensing, measurement, and control technologies to optimize efficiency, accuracy, and quality across diverse industrial applications. Below, we explore its key applications and how it drives innovation in the industrial sector.
