Industrial image processing: Manufacturer, reports, information at INDUSTRIAL Production

Quite compact

Smartray, manufacturer of 3D sensors for quality inspection and metrology, presents its Ecco 3D sensors. The sensors in this series are the smallest and most economical 3D sensors in their class, according to the supplier.

Precise image evaluation

Equalization from a bird's eye view

Distorted images taken with a strong wide-angle lens are only of limited use for industrial image processing applications. Baumer presents a solution to perspective distortion for Verisens vision sensors.

Vision sensors now even more flexible

Even smarter, even more beautiful

The Visor series from manufacturer Sensopart has been given a makeover: With their slim metal housing, improved lighting and new functions such as aiming laser and motorized focus, the vision sensors can now be used even more flexibly and are easy to operate.
