Norwalt's Vue Inspection System
Norwalt launches its new bottle vision inspection system, the Vue Inspection System. Designed in the company’s Vision Systems Lab, the new product aims to integrate standardised vision components with custom-made elements and deep learning tools.
Key information:
- Norwalt unveils its new bottle vision inspection system.
- The Vue Inspection System claims to monitor gaging defects as small as 10 thousandths of an inch, on a translucent surface.
- Norwalt's new system integrates standardised vision components as well as custom-made elements with deep learning tools.
The custom automation and line integration machinery for complex manufacturing applications supplier claims its new system can monitor gaging defects as small as 10 thousandths of an inch. The system can also detect defects on translucent surfaces. The Vue Inspection System achieves this by using shape transformation on the sloped areas of bottles.
“Norwalt is increasingly committed to enhancing our vision capabilities, and as industry demand increases, we’re seeing an increasing number of requests for our advanced and more sophisticated systems,” said Keith Harman, Director of Business Development & Technical Sales for Norwalt.
Norwalt conceptualised, designed, and engineered the Vue Inspection System in its Vision Systems Lab. The facility incorporates visual inspection and deep learning tools, including artificial intelligence (AI) vision innovations and 3D profiling. The custom automation and line integration machinery manufacturer also integrates optical character recognition (OCR) and verification via optical character verification (OCV) at its lab.
In addition to its new inspection system, Norwalt also designs machines that utilise closed-loop data for machine adjustments and continuous production improvements. The lab also provides gage repeatability and reproducibility (GR&R), Type One studies, and full evaluation of a project’s field-orientated control (FOC).
