We sat down with Dr. Arun Dalmia, founder and president of Active Inspection, a systems integrator based in Grand Rapids, MI, to ask him some questions on how system integration has helped his clients build robust and sustainable manufacturing processes and how the role of systems integrators is evolving.
Beyond the growth in applications brought about by improvements in CMOS sensor technology, another significant trend is the increase in applications that extend beyond the visible spectrum.
A smart camera in the machine vision market is defined by its system architecture, experts say. Specifically, a smart camera packages an imaging sensor, sensor interface, computer, and I/O interface into a single package.
As an alternative to CMMs, production engineers have the option of deploying versatile, noncontact optical inspection systems that allow for the implementation of first-article or random part inspection in a fast, nondestructive way.
Proper lighting design is essential to assure a successful machine vision project. Ignoring this is one of the most common causes of machine vision project failures.
Machine vision lighting is a broad topic but a short article can be useful because some core concepts are not widely known. We’ll start with three core statements.
We review the “state of the market” and discuss some established technologies that are maturing to provide value to more end users, as well as some “cutting-edge” technologies that may bear watching.
Over machine vision's long history in industrial automation, the emergence and development of standards has been one of the key drivers in advancing this technology.
In this article, we review key standards that currently exist and provide an overview on recent updates and potential changes that will impact and benefit users of machine vision technologies. We also look at the work of various organizations to understand how their standards may impact the machine vision market.
Computational imaging technology has found its way into industrial automated inspection, where the creative use of illumination components has emerged as an enabling technology providing valuable imaging capabilities.
The Quality Show is a 3-day tradeshow dedicated to connecting quality manufacturing professionals with process improvement vendors for all things QUALITY. Join thousands of quality managers, engineers and manufacturing professionals to network, attend education sessions and test out the latest technologies and products that will improve quality and productivity in your manufacturing process. We will be back in Rosemont, IL at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center for the 5th biennial Quality Show, October 24-26, 2023. Look forward to seeing you there!
