Advantech’s Machine Vision Solution Enables Automated Inspections for Intelligent Manufacturing

Automated Inspection

In the manufacturing industry, quality control inspections are crucial for ensuring consistent high-quality products. Traditionally, quality control inspections had to be conducted manually, increasing the potential for errors due to human factors such as fatigue and attention lapses. However, in recent years, machine vision technology has been increasingly deployed for conducting automated inspections. This is because machine vision not only increases the efficiency of quality control, but also reduces the risk of error and manpower-related operating costs for enhanced productivity.
