Integration and support for industrial machine vision
The right components are the beginning. What matters is that they work in the application.
Camera, lens and lighting can be perfectly chosen on paper.
For that to become a productive machine vision application, triggering, software, machine, PLC and the production process all have to work together.
VISIONTECHNIK supports the integration of components for industrial machine vision and automatic identification.
How we go about it depends on the size and complexity of your project.
Flexible rather than unnecessarily complicated
Not every application needs a large integrator.
And not every application can sensibly be solved with a few hours of product support.
We therefore distinguish between different project sizes.
1. Component
You already know what you need.
We support you with:
- product selection
- procurement
- accessories
- cables
- compatibility
- basic technical questions
You integrate the components yourself.
2. Application
You know your task but not yet the complete technical solution.
We support you with, for example:
- camera selection
- lens specification
- lighting
- code readers
- triggering
- interfaces
- parameter setting
- feasibility
- basic commissioning
3. Project
You need a more extensive integration.
As soon as further technical disciplines are needed, we can bring in specialist integration partners.
That can cover areas such as:
- PLC programming
- robotics
- mechanical engineering
- control cabinet construction
- complex software
- safety technology
- on-site installation and commissioning
The right specialists for the right task
We do not believe a single company has to master every technical discipline equally well.
A demanding automation application can require expertise in optics, camera electronics, software, PLC, robotics and mechanical engineering at the same time.
On larger projects we therefore deliberately work with reliable, specialized integration partners.
Depending on the task, we assemble the expertise the project actually needs.
Our role
Our core competence lies in the selection and procurement of:
- industrial cameras
- line scan cameras
- smart cameras
- code readers
- lenses
- lighting
- frame grabbers
- controllers
- filters
- cables
- accessories
We also support the technical coordination of these components.
Integration into existing lines
Not every project starts from scratch.
We also support existing systems.
For example when:
- a camera has to be replaced
- a product has been discontinued
- the resolution has to be increased
- a code reader is no longer working reliably
- lighting has to be optimized
- production speed increases
- an existing system is to be extended
- accessories or spare components are needed
Support during commissioning
Depending on the system, topics can include:
- camera settings
- exposure time
- gain
- focus
- lens
- lighting
- trigger
- code reader parameters
- interfaces
- software configuration
For larger installations, additional specialists can be brought in.
Support after the project too
Industrial systems often stay in service for many years.
We therefore want to remain your contact after the purchase as well.
We support you with, for example:
- technical product questions
- spare components
- successor products
- accessories
- extensions
- compatibility checks
- communication with manufacturers
Why our partner approach is an advantage
Specialists rather than generalists
Where a task requires specific experience, we bring in exactly that expertise.
Project size determines the effort
You do not have to commission a full integration service if all you need is technical support with a camera.
Scales flexibly
A simple component delivery can grow into a larger project if needed.
One central point of contact
VISIONTECHNIK remains your contact for the machine vision side of the project.
From the technical question to the right solution
Our aim is not to make a project bigger than it needs to be.
We want to find the technical route that matches the actual task.
As much support as necessary. As little project complexity as possible.
One point of contact. The right components. The right specialists.
That is our approach to integration projects.
You do not have to find a new supplier for every technical discipline yourself.
VISIONTECHNIK concentrates on the machine vision components and brings in additional specialists where needed.
That keeps the project structure flexible.
