Machine Vision: End User Solutions
Measurement
Manufacturing requirements for measurement range from presence verification to checking high-precision dimensional accuracy and geometrical tolerances. Attention to the inspection environment and image quality is as important as the vision algorithms themselves. DALSA sub-pixel measurement tools, combined with the right optics and stable lighting, provide the precision and repeatability to ensure manufacturing accuracy.
Measurement for Quality Control
The Automotive industry has many applications that require online and offline measuring systems.
Using DALSA measurement solutions, production quality can be monitored at any stage in the body shop. Results can be sent to the factory enterprise and documented for step-by-step quality control.
For general manufacturing needs, machine vision measurement provides a fast, highly accurate and cost-effective way to assure product quality and customer satisfaction.
