Teledyne DALSA announced the launch of its Xtium3 PCIe Gen4 frame grabber family, a next‑generation line that delivers up to 72.2 Gb/s of raw Camera Link HS (CLHS) bandwidth and 13.2 GB/s of host transfer rates through a PCIe Gen4 x8 slot. The first model, Xtium3‑CLHS PX8, supports seven CLHS lanes at 10.3125 Gbps each, enabling acquisition bandwidths of 8.6 GB/s and real‑time data forwarding to up to 12 computers. The system also offers 97 % packet efficiency, 30‑meter cable support, multi‑plane HDR processing for Teledyne’s Linea™ HS2 16K camera, and full compatibility with Sapera™ LT Software SDKs.
The Xtium3 series builds on the proven Xtium2 platform, adding significant throughput and flexibility. By moving to PCIe Gen4, the new grabbers eliminate the bottleneck that limited the previous generation’s data rates, allowing semiconductor inspection and electronic component testing workflows to process images at twice the speed of the Xtium2. The 64/66‑bit encoding and X‑protocol support reduce packet loss, while the long‑cable capability expands deployment options in large‑scale manufacturing environments.
High‑performance industrial imaging is a growing market driven by automation, AI‑enabled quality control, and the increasing complexity of semiconductor and electronic manufacturing. Teledyne DALSA’s new line positions the company to capture a larger share of this segment, which grew 6 % YoY in Q3 2025. The launch complements the company’s broader strategy of integrating advanced sensor technologies into ruggedized, high‑margin solutions, and it supports the modest growth Teledyne DALSA has seen in its industrial and scientific vision systems.
Teledyne Technologies’ Q3 2025 earnings, released on October 22 2025, showed record quarterly sales of $1.54 billion, up 6.7 % YoY, and a non‑GAAP EPS of $5.57, beating analyst expectations by $0.04. The company raised its full‑year sales outlook to $6.06 billion, reflecting confidence in continued demand for digital imaging and unmanned systems. The Xtium3 launch is part of this growth strategy, providing a new revenue stream that leverages the company’s strong engineering base and software ecosystem.
Competitive analysis indicates that the Xtium3 series competes with established frame grabber vendors such as Cognex, Basler, and Allied Vision. Teledyne DALSA differentiates itself through its high‑throughput PCIe Gen4 architecture, extensive cable support, and seamless integration with Sapera LT SDKs, which together lower integration effort for system integrators and shorten time‑to‑market for customers.
The launch underscores Teledyne DALSA’s commitment to delivering high‑performance imaging solutions that meet the evolving needs of semiconductor and electronic manufacturing. By expanding its product portfolio with the Xtium3 series, the company strengthens its position in a market that is increasingly driven by speed, reliability, and software integration.
