The automatic sorting of parts by industrial vision involves taking an image with a camera then analysing this image by adapted computer algorithms to determine the appearance or otherwise of a defect on the industrial part.

Industrial vision is the main tool in the automatic sorting of parts sector, allowing rapid analysis without contact of the status of the part, checking several criteria at the same time, and is extremely precise.

The various criteria which are analysed by industrial vision:

• dimensional control thanks to backlighting and telecentric optics,
• aspect control with combinations of direct lighting such as Lumitrax or Multispectrum.

TQS is the French integrator of industrial vision tools from KEYENCE, which is the world leader in the field.
