Inspection functions

Imagechecker P400MA and P400

Object identification and position detection made easy

Vision P400 includes several algorithms which allow fast, reproducible and precise recognition, identification and location of objects. Our powerful Contour-Matching Checker is an especially impressive tool for such inspection tasks. It evaluates objects based on previously trained models, judging geometric information instead of pixel patterns, thereby achieving revolutionary stability and detection speed. Furthermore this algorithm can handle all those disruptive factors, which often disqualify conventional inspection methods for the real factory environment: fluctuating illumination, changing object appearance, touching and overlapping objects.

Inspection and verification of characters, codes and prints

P400 systems offer various tools to check the quality and completeness of complete prints, to read strings of characters (Optical Character Recognition), to verify strings (Optical Character Verification) or to read a variety of different codes. The employed techniques guarantee high reliability and precision even under severe inspection conditions.

OCR/OCV

A powerful tool to read and verify characters, strings and symbols. We have expanded the functionality of this checker. Now, also rotated or even curved strings can be read.

2D code reading

This newly developed Checker reads 2D codes such as Datamatrix, ECC200 and QR code. Regardless of whether the codes are randomly twisted or serious changes in brightness occur, this powerful checker will read them reliably. Setting the checker is as easy as drawing a rectangle.

Print inspection

Typically blurred or incomplete imprints have to be detected. P400 is able to localize quality deviations which can barely be seen by the human eye.

Barcode

Almost any barcode can be read with this tool. 2/5 Industrial, Code 39/93/128, EAN 13, EAN 8, UPC-A/E, and

Pr Pharma Code are just a few examples.
