      Cimtec partners with small parts assembly customer to increase throughput while increasing quality.   Cognex machine vision integrated with Denso 6-axis robotics. Customer has hand assembled product since 1968 due in part to the very tight clearances of the components and the need to visually inspect these components prior to assembly. Engineering proposed and justified [...]
    • Notes from the Cognex Training Session Posted on: April 23, 2012
      Cimtec held a successful training session on Cognex Insight Machine Vision Sensors.  The four day session included hands on lab exercises based on both the EZ Builder and Spreadsheet programming interface.  Thanks to all the students and if you missed this session, join us in Greenville on July 24.

CIMTEC Machine Vision Metrics Software

 CIMTEC’s Machine Vision Metrics Software communicates with your machine vision stations via existing plant Ethernet network. It stores all inspection results and images created by each camera and makes data available to users anywhere in the plant with an easy to use web browser interface.

Vision Metrics delivers instant information:

  • Flexible reports based on time and camera
  • Easy histogram and pareto statistical analysis
  • Long term availability of image files

With Vision Metrics we must no longer treat vision systems as a real time sensor used only to control product routing. The data collected can be used as valuable inputs to a host of intelligent applications:

  • Interfacing into other plant information systems such as MES and ERP
  • Instant statistical analysis of inspection data
  • Archived visual confirmation of data quality

So ask yourself, are you using machine vision data to its maximum potential?

  • What is the reject rate at each vision station over the last month?
  • How does an upstream failure compare visually to a downstream inspection?
  • Are operators typing in data that is also being captured by a camera?

If you can’t answer all of these questions with your current system, you can increase your operation’s efficiency by deploying Cimtec’s Machine Vision Metrics.
