Defect detection: Identify defects on wide-format materials, ensuring high-quality standards for printed media and other substrates.
Presence/absence detection: Verify the presence or absence of key features across multiple regions on large objects to ensure proper assembly.
Continuous web inspection: Detect coating voids on continuous web materials to find and correct quality issues during the manufacturing process.
Barcode reading: Accurately decode barcodes on large parts for reliable tracking and traceability throughout production.
Measurement: Unwrap and measure circular or curved parts, ensuring precise dimensions for proper functionality and fit.
Line Scan vs. Area Scan Technology: Choosing the right solution for your application
Line Scan
Builds the image line-by-line as the object moves past the sensor, ideal for inspecting fast or continuously-moving objects
Use cases: Inspecting continuous materials (e.g. webs, textiles) cylindrical objects, complex surfaces and large parts
Area Scan
Captures the full images in a single snapshot, ideal for inspecting static or moderately moving objects
Use cases: Inspecting parts on a production line where items are stationary for short periods
Elevate quality control with image overlap technology
The In-Sight 3800 Line Scan captures overlapping sections of objects during inspections for complete coverage and more detailed images.
- Improved Accuracy: Overlapping images ensure every part of the object is inspected, minimising missed defects.
- Seamless Inspection: Ideal for high-speed production lines, ensuring no areas are skipped due to fast movement.
Without Overlap: Defects or features can be split between two images, with gaps in between them.
With Overlap: Defects or features are never split between two images, and no gaps in coverage.
Complete vision toolset solves tasks of any complexity
The In-Sight 3800 Line Scan combines AI-based vision tools with traditional rule-based algorithms in a unified system, offering the flexibility to address a broad spectrum of error-proofing applications. Tools can be deployed independently for straightforward inspections or integrated for solving complex automation tasks with greater precision and adaptability.
Segmentation: Extracts defect, regions and objects from complex parts and backgrounds.
Classification: Detect and sort parts based on multiple features or characteristics.
Optical Character Recognition (OCR): Read characters on reflective, low-contrast and non-flat surfaces, including multi-line text.
Rule-based vision tools
The In-Sight 3800 Line Scan is also embedded with an extensive library of industry-proven traditional vision tools and algorithms including: Measure Distance, Pixel Count, Count Patterns, Math and Logic Tools, and more.
