Vision demos excite interest at Australian show

An Adept Electronic Solutions product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Jun 13, 2006

Adept Electronic Solutions won an award for Best Shell Scheme Stand at the recent Australian National Manufacturing Week in the Sydney Convention Centre.

Adept Electronic Solutions recently exhibited at National Manufacturing Week held in the Sydney Convention Centre.

NMW 2006 featured nine industry-specific pavilions with Adept Electronic Solutions featuring in the Robotics and Automation Pavilion with a wide range of automation and robotics companies.

The exhibition attracted international exhibitors from countries such as Germany, New Zealand and China.

Manning the Adept Electronic Solutions stand was Brodie McCulloch - Adept's Marketing Manager, Chris Moore - a new member to the Adept staff who manages the NSW territory and Marc Fimeri the Managing Director.

Adept Electronic Solutions had running demonstrations as well as a range of vision components on display.

A demonstration that attracted a lot of attention was the iPD VA40 vision appliance.

This was set up to show automated bottle inspection, and many visitors were very interested as they could see how easy this vision appliance was to use.

Some of the different applications visitors enquired about included barcode inspection, optical character recognition, general manufacturing metrology and toleranceing, bottle cap inspection and many others that the VA devices from iPD are designed for.

Also on display was the new TM-6740GE Gigabit Ethernet industrial camera from Pulnix.

Running live it demonstrated the new GigE interface that allows for connection directly into a Gigabit Ethernet network removing the need for a frame grabber or any other dedicated acquisition hardware.

A third live demonstration used the Dalsa Spyder camera to demonstrate the use of linescan on applications where the part to be inspected is moving past the sensor.

The live demonstration was created with a round can on a turntable with the Spyder camera imaging the label on the can to make sure all parts of the label were correct.

This system allows customers to build an image from a single line of pixels, reducing the cost of applications while increasing speed.

Also on show were FireWire cameras from AVT and USB2 cameras from iDS including RE versions that provide IP67 protection.

All in all the exhibition was very successful.

Visitors demonstrated a satisfaction with the level of sophistication of the displays at the exhibition and with the wide variety of product types.

Adept was proud to be awarded the Best Shell Scheme Stand at NMW06 and look forward to exhibiting at next year's event in Melbourne.
