Epson develops vision guide for customers
Epson has announced that it would launch sales of the Vision Guide, an image processing system for high-speed, high-precision detection of the shape, position, and alignment of work being processed by industrial robots in September.
This new product enables labor shortages and the need for greater production efficiency and stable quality in emerging nations that volume-produce the vast majority of smartphones, electronic automotive components, and other small electronic gear. When using industrial robots for repetitive work, manufacturers often find it necessary to install a device that works in combination with the robot to ensure that work in progress in front-end processes has been accurately aligned.
Hideo Hirao, responsible for Factory Automation Division, Epson shared, "Epson is the world's leading producers of SCARA robots. We developed the Vision Guide to answer customer needs for an option to optimize use of Epson's robot range. Using the high-speed, high-precision Vision Guide with an industrial robot provides customers with greater flexibility in establishing production lines, and facilitates greater efficiency in small-lot production without the use for special equipment to detect the position of work."
