Vision & Optical Inspection

Optical inspection and machine vision are key technologies in modern manufacturing that enable precise quality control by automatically detecting defects and optimizing production processes in real time. Our first-class Manz inline vision systems stand for maximum efficiency for both individual machines and entire production lines by allowing upstream and downstream processes to be adjusted immediately.

We are Experts in Image-based Inspection

The optical inspection of intermediate and end products is of crucial importance for quality assurance in manufacturing processes. In our portfolio, we offer our customers a wide range of processes for image processing and optical inspection of a wide variety of components or materials.

What we can offer you:

Our VISION-based Applications in Detail:

Position and Part Detection

  • Detection of component positions for precise placement
  • Simple set-up (teach-in) of a wide range of product geometries
  • Integrated joining processes with control in the µm range
  • Integrated control processes for maximum accuracy when processing small-format substrates such as smartphone glass

Dimensional Measurement

  • High-precision measurement of rigid components such as smartphone parts (< 10 µm accuracy including verification with a coordinate measuring machine) and flexible materials such as carbon fiber patches
  • High-precision measurement of process results (e.g., printing or laser processing)
  • Measurement of gap dimensions (e.g., gaps between buttons and housings)

Surface Inspection and Defect Detection

  • Reliable surface inspection of various materials: glass, aluminum, thin-film solar modules, battery poles
  • Non-destructive assessment of welding quality in laser welding
  • Detection of defects or blemishes such as missing coatings, contamination, residues from wet chemical processes, or microcracks
  • Color deviations and inhomogeneities

  • Adhesive bead inspection during battery module assembly

 

3D measurement

  • 3D measurement of components for assembly with the smallest possible height offset
  • Measurement of heights and levels of components (e.g. keyboards and notebook housings) for quality assurance at the end of a production line
  • 3D measurement to ensure even distribution of the potting material, e.g. on the strands of a cell contacting system

Traceability

  • Reading and verification of codes (barcodes, data matrix, QR codes) for identifying components during quality control
  • Optical character recognition (OCR) on components
  • Improvement of product traceability

Your Benefits:

The use of our optical inspection systems in high-tech engineering offers our customers numerous advantages that significantly increase quality, efficiency and cost-effectiveness in production:

  • Increased production speed, including continuous real-time monitoring of production.
  • Reduced manufacturing costs, as errors and expensive production stops can be avoided.
  • Increased product quality through precise and error-free inspection of components in real time.
  • Improved traceability and documentation through seamless recording and storage of all inspection results. This enhances the traceability of components and facilitates quality assurance and audits.
  • Maximum scalability of the systems, including a high degree of integration into existing production processes.
