Vision system inspects laser-drilled holes - Fisher Smith LLP

Fisher Smith LLP developed a machine‑vision system using MVTec HALCON that automatically inspects the position, diameter, and roundness of laser‑drilled holes (Ø 15‑50 µm) in plastic parts. The system operates directly on the production line, enabling reliable quality control without manual intervention.

Vision system checks pharmaceutical products - Machine Vision Technology

Machine Vision Technology Ltd. developed an automated inspection system using MVTec HALCON to check tablets and capsules for broken pieces, shape errors, and color deviations. Three Basler cameras and a dark-field lighting setup ensure precise detection and reliable rejection of defective products.

Seeing robots process large work area with high precision

The automation specialist AKEOPLUS has developed an innovative robotic cell for the production of satellite panels at the global space manufacturer Thales Alenia Space. The special feature: robots place the components with high absolute accuracy to a working area of 5 by 3 meters in a ISO 6 clean room environment. This accuracy is made possible by machine vision.

The sweet pepper robot SWEEPER detects and picks ripe crops using MVTec HALCON

The Wageningen University & Research (WUR) in the Netherlands developed a greenhouse harvesting robot, which is able to pick ripe crops. The shape- and color-based detection algorithm for this task was implemented using MVTec HALCON.

MVTec HALCON controls linear conveyor and robot system for fully automatic assembly of components

LIP Automation AG developed a flexible, vision-based assembly system powered by MVTec HALCON. Instead of costly mechanical feeding, HALCON detects parts on conveyors, determines their position and orientation, and passes this data to the robot. The system prevents collisions, enables product changeovers in under two minutes, and ensures maximum system availability.
