Solve your key applications 


Automotive 

  • Body assembly: Inspect adhesives, noise suppression, sealants, and perform VIN and OCR reading.
  • Powertrain: Conduct metal casting and pre-assembly inspections; verify engine assembly and parts.
  • Trim and interior: Ensure assembly quality, check feature presence/absence, and verify color/stitching.
  • Electronics and EV's: Inspect EV battery manufacturing, motors, and wiring harnesses.
  • Tires and wheels: Verify tire identification and inspect tread, sidewall, and valve stem.
  • Frame and body: Inspect body panel stamping, welding, and detect studs/weld nuts.
  • Final assembly:Perform kitting, assembly, glass decking inspections, and verify 3D gaps and flush.

Electronics and Semiconductors

  • High-speed inspection: Quality assurance and defect detection of electronic components such as printed circuit boards (PCBs), flat-panel displays (FPDs), and chips in wafers.
  • DPM code reading: Read direct part mark codes and serial or part numbers accurately, even on rough, reflective, low-contrast surfaces
  • AI-based OCR verification: Performs readings of up to 15 parts per second and up to 99.9% accuracy with minimal training.
  • Label verification: 100% high-speed code and OCR verification of labels for traceability, compliance, and error reduction.

Transportation and Logistics

  • Scan tunnels: Minimize bottlenecks, errors, and manual rework with automated high-speed package handling.
  • Pack bench: Reduce costly packing errors, boost operator throughput by up to 33%, and optimize per-pack profitability.
  • Dock door: Eliminate bottlenecks, improve throughput by 30%, enhance worker safety, and reduce costly shipping errors.
  • Label verification: Detect faulty shipping labels before they cause problems. Achieve 100% high-speed code and OCR verification, reducing costly shipping errors.

Food & Beverage / Packaging

  • Barcode scanning: Read 1D/2D barcodes, inspect package completeness, track and trace, and optimize order picking.
  • Inspection and quality control: Verify content, packaging, fill levels, labels, and detect foreign objects.
  • OCR and OCV: Perform reading and verification, ensure label/barcode legibility, inspect date and lot codes, and use deep learning OCR.
  • 3D inspection/volumetric measurement: Measure location, sort and assess volumes, inspect fill levels, and verify cap-and-seal integrity.
  • Label inspection: Check label quality, inspect allergen details, verify codes, detect defects, and reject mislabeled products.

Pharmaceutical

  • Barcode scanning and data capture: Reads 1D/2D/DPM barcodes, verifies labels, manages inventory, and optimizes order picking.
  • Inspection and quality control: Validates packaging, fill levels, labels, and detects foreign objects and safety seals.
  • OCR and OCV: Ensures label and barcode legibility, tracks operations, inspects codes, and ensures UDI compliance.
  • 3D volumetric: Measures location and volume, inspects products and containers, and detects missing items.
  • Label inspection: Verifies label quality, checks allergen details, inspects codes, and ensures proper alignment.
