Hammer-IMS capitalizes on machine vision and artificial intelligence as an additional eye in quality control

Hammer-IMS makes progress in machine vision and artificial intelligence as an additional eye in quality control of textiles, plastics and other inline produced products. Recently, Hammer-IMS engineers, in collaboration with the PXL Electronics and ICT campus in Hasselt (Toon Sterckx), developed camera-assisted defect detection based on machine learning. This feature will be a key part in the newest generation of Hammer-IMS’s Edge-Vision-4.0-CURTAIN products. The feature distinguishes defects and classifies these into multiple defect categories. The robust AI-based feature for inline quality control will soon be available, delivering state-of-the-art visual inspection.
