Revolutionizing Machining Operations with Artificial Intelligence

The synergy between AI and CNC machining is set to reshape the future of manufacturing. Embracing these innovations will empower industries to achieve new levels of excellence, driving growth and success in an increasingly complex market.

Pallet by pallet - Intelligent robotic vision system destacks up to 800 objects per hour

One of the locations where RODE adds value is for DHL eCommerce in Rotterdam. In this machine, two Ensenso 3D cameras from IDS Imaging Development Systems GmbH are implemented to provide the required image data.

The Core of Optimizing Robotic Performance: Sensors in Warehousing

Without any external input to guide its actions or decisions, a robot would behave like a machine, performing tasks without adaptation or autonomy. Serving as the critical link between the robot and its environment, sensors enable the robot to perceive and interpret.

Inspecting Miniaturization: How 2D Laser Profilers Handle Tiny Electronic Components

The miniature size of modern electronic components makes placement, mounting, soldering, and testing of said components rather difficult. Given their size and the overall component density on the PCB, visual inspection is nearly impossible.

Why e-con systems' latest 5MP Global Shutter camera - e-CAM56_CUOAGX is ideal for factory automation

Embedded vision has transformed factory automation - thanks to advances in sensor technology, processing power, and AI. Discover the key features of e-CAM56_CUOAGX, e-con Systems' latest camera and see why it's perfect for factory automation.

How Ethernet Cameras Are Making a Comeback with New, Powerful Features

In this blog, you'll get expert insights about the role of Ethernet cameras in embedded vision, their challenges, and the exciting features that continue to make PoE technology extremely valuable.

The Evolution of Additive Manufacturing: How Automation Redefines Post-Processing Standards

In 2024, post processing metal parts is still a bottleneck in the AM process chain because it is still very often a manual, labor-intensive, messy (filthy, actually) and sometimes risky task.

The secret lives of manufacturing defects - How defects pass through the system undetected

Here Zohar Kantor, chief revenue officer at quality inspection pioneer QualiSense, traces how defects enter the manufacturing process and avoid detection.

Why Automated Optical Inspection Is a Winner in PCB Quality Control

Excelling in PCB quality control is a meaningful way to maintain competitiveness despite these conditions. Many decision-makers have increasingly invested in automated optical inspection (AOI) at their facilities. This approach leads to numerous benefits.

Why training with few good images is fake news

As recently as five years ago, the only way to teach a machine vision system what a good product looked like was to laboriously show it every possible fault, mark and annotate the errors and catalogue them.

Enhancing Safety Standards in Manufacturing Environments with Vision AI

This piece delves into Vision AI's pivotal role in reshaping safety paradigms in manufacturing. But before we dive in, let's first decode the workings of Vision AI.

Augmented Intelligence in Machine Vision - is Furthering Human Intelligence More Effective Than Replacing It?

Augmented intelligence is similar to artificial intelligence in that it uses machine learning algorithms to enhance defect detection. However, instead of aiming to replace human intelligence, augmented intelligence aims to build upon it.

Understanding the Role of Machine Vision in Industry 4.0

Today it is being applied to diverse areas such as monitoring processes for predictive maintenance, and robotic guidance that makes it possible for robots to safely work with and respond to human interactions.

Using Infrared to Ensure Package Seal Integrity

Using infrared inspection as part of a quality control program allows for inspecting all package seals in the production line. Companies can ensure package seal integrity, promote product quality, and elevate customer satisfaction by implementing package line inspection.

Why the conventional deep learning model is broken

The conventional deep learning model is a supervised model. It takes months of time to develop and train the model before it is ready for the production line.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs

Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
