Inspekto launches first Autonomous Machine Vision system

Inspekto describes itself as the founder of industrial Autonomous Machine Vision for quality inspection, gating and sorting. A German company with Israeli DNA, Inspekto is working with a handful of leading German investors, including such top players as Mahle, Grazia, Steinbeis and ZFHN, and numerous leading DACH, French and Italian top global manufacturers, to revolutionize QA in manufacturing.

Inspekto's Plug and Inspect technology means employees in manufacturing facilities can take the Autonomous Machine Vision system out of the box and install it in minutes, on their own, without any help from a systems integrator and without the long process associated with setting up the current generation of vision inspection systems. Plug and Inspect systems provide full autonomy to the manufacturing plant: systems immediately self-adapt to any changes in the inspected object environment, such as changes in light conditions and object location or orientation, without any intervention whatsoever.

The system's powerful machine vision and artificial intelligence capabilities mean manufacturers can also independently change the object being inspected and the QA system, or even move the system to another production line altogether, on their own, in minutes, with no need for any external experts.

Harel Boren, CEO of Inspekto, states: "Traditional QA methods rely on systems integrators to install and adjust the QA system. This imposes a tedious expert-dependant setup and commissioning process and ties manufacturers to a third-party installer, leading to inescapable excessive costs and downtime. Autonomous Machine Vision changes this. It makes the systems integrator entirely obsolete and brings control in-house, giving manufacturers the opportunity to plug and inspect in minutes. We put Inspekto on course to change machine vision QA from the necessary evil it is, to be customer-centric, and give QA managers a tool that is 100 times quicker to set up, at one-tenth the cost.

"VISION is the best place for us to hold the 'world premier' of the industry's first ever Autonomous Machine Vision system, powered by our Plug and Inspect technology. We will be running live systems on exhibition grounds so that manufacturers can experience first-hand how the new category of Autonomous Machine Vision systems will transform the way they perform QA."

The robust technology behind Inspekto's product, leading to unprecedented affordability and immediacy of installation, is said to make 'Total QA' possible for any industrial plant, whereby inspection is conducted at every stage along a production line and is no longer limited to mission-critical points or the end of the line.

Total QA enables quality defects to be identified earlier than with traditional QA methods, which reduces the amount of resources wasted on the manufacturing of objects with quality defects, and has a direct impact on manufacturers' profitability.
