There are two different software packages for the A series:
|
|
|
|
Multichecker software package
|
|
The "Multichecker" is the workhorse of the A-Series. It has all the common image processing procedures for measuring, position detection, for assembly checking, surface inspection, sorting, part recognition, etc.
|
|
|
|
OCR software package
|
|
Character checking also includes special procedures for reading characters and for checking their print quality. Character recognition (OCR) is based on a neural network and thus achieves maximum detection rates even under difficult circumstances.

It's fast
|
|
A-Series Imagecheckers are made for high-speed industrial inspection processes. Their architecture supports parallel processing: while one image is computed, the next one can already be acquired. - Edge detection (200 pixels): 0.7ms
- Grey-scale analysis (256 x 256 pixels): 3.4ms
- Feature extraction (356 x 256 pixels): 8.7ms

Different inspection functions
|
|
If you add up all the inspection elements of the A200, you get over 19,000 possibilities. Further details of the individual procedures can also be found under inspection functions.

|
Setup assistance
|
|
With the setupīs help function, focus, brightness and other parameters can be easily optimized. Now even a novice can adjust parameters that used to require an expert. The I/O monitor and the test output functions simplify testing the connections to external equipment.

|
|
|
User-defined screen
|
|
You can specify the results that you want to see displayed on the user-defined screen. You are free to specify which text you want to see displayed. The user can then recognise at a glance whether the measured values fall within the OK range. Limit values can also be changed without having to return to the menu.

Position- / rotation
|
|
Inspection can be carried out regardless of the object's position. This checker recognises positional variation and move the inspection areas accordingly. The A200 can also compensate for 360° variations in location.
|
|
|
|
Automatic trigger
|
|
This feature eliminates the trigger sensor from the production line for starting the inspection routine. By using a small trigger area, the system continuously checks if an object is under the camera or not. Once an object is detected, the actual inspection starts automatically.

Displaying the last error image
|
|
It is a great help to display the last error image on the monitor, especially with fast-running machines. The error can be viewed in peace, while the machine gets on with production.

Filter functions
|
Filter functions such as Erosion and Dilation help to improve image quality. Areas of "noise" can be deleted or divided and areas (gaps) can be combined.

|
Bilingual software
|
|
All the software packages are bilingual. Choose the required language via the menu. Currently German-English, French-English, Spanish-English and Italian-English versions are available.
|

|
|
Backup program
|
|
With the backup program, you have access to all the projects, images and system settings of the Imagechecker. You can save them to a PC, or print out the images for documentation purposes.
