The Future is Here with Robot Guidance Systems
Manufacturers are facing a number of challenges, but perhaps the biggest of them all is the implementation of automated material handling solutions. SICK, Inc. has the answer to this problem with a system-solution approach.
Machine Vision System Factors
There are many factors to consider when deciding on a vision system in your automation system. Three of the biggest are hardware, lighting, and lenses.
AI-powered Cameras in Factories to Find Defects
Instrumental is attacking the 20 to 35 cents of every $1 spent in manufacturing that is wasted. That waste comes from literal scrap at the various factories in the process, returns, mistakes, extra experimentation, travel, and engineering time that wasn't used efficiently..

How Autonomous Machine Vision Saves Time and Money
Manufacturers can now finally benefit from powerful visual QA systems with no downtime, very short implementation lead times, rapid diagnostics and far less testing, training and spare parts.
Grasping the Importance of High-Performance, Industry-Ready Handheld Scanners
Handheld barcode scanners are essential whenever specific products, clinical samples or work-in-progress (WIP) parts need to be reliably tracked without the luxury of a fully automated system.
Marked for Life: A Glance at Some Common Direct Part Marking Methods
Depending on how long a part or product needs to remain traceable, the relative permanence of various marking methods could be a game-changer. In the aerospace industry, for instance, parts could be in use for as long as 30 years.
BitFlow Predicts Vision-Guided Robotics to Become Major Disruptive Force in Global Manufacturing
As the plant floor has become more digitally connected, the relationship between robots and machine vision has merged into a single, seamless platform, setting the stage for a new generation of more responsive vision-driven robotic systems.
AIA Announces The Vision Show Startup Competition Finalists and Judges
"The startups that have made it to the final competition are indicative of the levels of innovation in the machine vision and imaging industries," according to Jeff Burnstein, President, AIA. "I don't envy the job in front of our judges having to select only one winner."

PI USA - Difference between Gantry & Split-Bridge
A traditional gantry system employs X-Y or X-Y-Z range of motion. Mounted on a base plate, usually granite, 2 parallel rails constitute the synchronized Y axis motion while the cross axis (bridge axis) provides the X motion. A vertical axis can be added on the bridge for the Z motion.
A Split Bridge system can be less complex than a traditional gantry system because synchronization of the two parallel linear motors is not required. Both systems are used in industrial production, testing, and additive manufacturing.
