10× vision inspector

Real-time inspection at full line speed.

Every part is imaged as it passes the camera and judged against your defect rules in milliseconds. Bad parts are rejected automatically, uncertain ones go to your quality team.

Every part, not a sample

Each part gets its own image and verdict: PASS, DEFECT or REVIEW, stored with a timestamp.

15 to 60 ms per image

Fast enough for lines up to 1,200 parts per minute per camera without slowing anything down.

Automatic rejection

Air jets, pushers, flippers or diverters are triggered through a PLC output or 24 V digital signal.

Review, not guesses

When confidence falls below your limit, the part is routed to review and the image is sent to the quality team.

Runs at the line

An edge computer next to the camera makes every decision locally. The line keeps inspecting if the network drops.

Many products, one line

Switch product recipes from the HMI or the PLC when the line changes over. The right model loads in seconds.

how it works

From camera trigger to reject bin.

TriggerA sensor or encoder tells the camera a part is in position.
CaptureThe camera fires with strobed lighting so motion blur stays below 0.05 mm.
JudgeThe model finds and measures every defect, then applies your Defect Library rules.
ActPASS continues, DEFECT is rejected to a bin, REVIEW is set aside for a person.
RecordThe image, result and timing are stored for Traceability and the Line Dashboard.
trust notes

Clear rules for every decision.

  • Uncertain results go to reviewThe quality team sees the image and makes the call. Their answer teaches the model.
  • Reject rules are set and approved by youNothing is rejected automatically until your team signs off the rule and the pilot results.
  • Images and models belong to youThey are never used to train models for other customers.
  • Cameras point at productsFields of view are set on the conveyor, not on the people working the line.

questions

Asked by quality teams

What happens if the edge computer stops?

A watchdog signal tells the PLC that inspection is not running, so the line can stop or divert parts according to your own rules. Parts are never silently passed.

Can it measure as well as detect?

Yes. Defects are measured in millimeters using the calibrated field of view, so rules like "reject scratches longer than 1.5 mm" work as written.

How are false rejects kept low?

You set separate limits for reject and review. Borderline parts go to review rather than the reject bin, and the pilot reports the false reject rate before you go live.
