AREAS WHERE FIS-100 EXCELS
WHEN CONSIDERING VISUAL INSPECTION, THE APPROPRIATE INSPECTION METHOD DEPENDS ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE PRODUCT. WHEN TAKING "STABLE OR UNSTABLE" ON THE VERTICAL AXIS AND "SIMPLE OR COMPLEX" ON THE HORIZONTAL AXIS, THE AREA IN WHICH FIS-100 EXCELS IS THE LIGHT BLUE AREA IN THE FIGURE. THE AREA WHERE FIS-100 EXCELS IS THE LIGHT BLUE AREA IN THE FIGURE. [...].
Ping-pong Method × Robot × Special lighting (for unevenness detection) Movie uploaded!
We have uploaded a video of our exhibit at the recent Image Sensing Expo 2017. Reference Video Using this special illumination, the detection of minute irregularities on the surface of a glossy object to be inspected can be done by changing the pattern of the point light source reflected on the object to determine if it is a good [...].
Automatic phase alignment full circumference inspection Video uploaded.
The ping-pong method is a low-cost, automated method in which a human operator performs the supply and discharge while the inspection is performed reliably. Basically, the ping-pong method is focused on one side only and achieves 2 to 4 times faster inspections. If you want to inspect the side [...]...
Defects not visible in scattered light
