Bin-picking application with MVTec HALCON boosts productivity

Pose Automation GmbH developed a bin-picking robotic cell for handling catheters in veterinary medicine. Using MVTec HALCON, the system detects part position and orientation via a 3D camera, grips two pieces per cycle, and minimizes stock and scrap. This solution boosts productivity and allows flexible adaptation to different production lines.

Machine Vision Solves "Needle-in-a-haystack" Problem for Small Parts Manufacturer, Developed by Data Systems

Data Systems solves the “needle-in-a-haystack” challenge for a small parts manufacturer using HALCON-based machine vision. The system automatically inspects, sorts, and classifies over 300,000 part variations, checking size, type, coating, and laser markings to ensure only correct parts reach shipment. Multiple cameras capture parts from different angles, while HALCON edge detection, pattern matching, and intensity inspection provide precise quality control.
