Industrial Applications

1. Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) of High-Density PCBs

Integration into AOI machines to perform high-speed, high-resolution imaging of printed circuit boards to identify surface defects, solder joint anomalies, and missing micro-components.

Problem Solved

Detecting sub-millimeter defects reliably in high-vibration manufacturing environments where focus drift typically causes false rejects.

2. High-Speed Pharmaceutical Vial Fill Inspection

Utilization in pharmaceutical packaging lines to rapidly verify liquid fill levels, detect particulate matter, and inspect seal integrity on moving glass vials.

Problem Solved

Capturing blur-free, high-resolution images of rapidly moving objects on a conveyor without requiring excessive, heat-generating external illumination that could compromise the product.

3. Robotic Vision Guidance for Precision Assembly

Mounting on robotic arms to provide machine vision guidance for picking and placing miniaturized mechanical or electronic parts with sub-millimeter accuracy.

Problem Solved

Maintaining precise optical calibration and focus under constant dynamic movement and mechanical vibration of a robotic end-effector.
