Vision Systems for every business

By Mark Williamson, UKIVA Chairman

Vision system has four main application areas:- automation, inspection, process optimisation and traceability which can make a big difference to the process and packaging industry.

Systems range from simple vision sensors that can detect and inspect parts on production lines or check for the presence of specific features on products and packages, to full PC-based systems featuring single or multiple cameras connected to a PC running sophisticated software. The latest neural network processing even allows vision systems to 'learn' in order to allow decisions to be made on the difference between components. Developments in technology mean that vision systems are now easy to use and quick to integrate into existing manufacturing equipment.Crucially, cost doesn't have to be an issue as there are many effective low cost vision system that add real value to process or an OEM machine.
