Solutions

The same machine vision solves completely different problems in a grain depot and in an electronics plant. We organise solutions by industry scenario: understand the site first, talk equipment second.

Our Approach

Settle whether it is worth doing before deciding how

Most custom automation failures are not technical: the wrong step was chosen for automation from the start. Our first step is always prioritisation, not quotation.

STEP 01

Break down the process, find the bottleneck

We split the line into the smallest process units and assess each for manual workload, share of cycle time, source of defects and staff turnover risk, then rank what to automate first.

STEP 02

Work out the return

We estimate payback from labour cost, capacity need, yield improvement and maintenance cost, and state plainly which steps are worth doing now and which are not yet.

STEP 03

Implement in steps

Validate the process on a single machine first, then fold it into the line. Controlled spending buys a certain result, instead of betting the whole line at once.

Industry 01

Grain Storage Intelligence

A flat warehouse or squat silo working area easily runs to thousands of square metres, and the working position changes frequently with season and task. The logic of fixed cameras simply does not hold here.

Covering a moving working area with a limited number of devices

Mobile masts and a rail trolley are our two answers. Which one suits depends on the warehouse structure, the shape of the working area and the budget.

  • Mobile mast option — Four masts at the corners of the working area: panoramic cameras for wide observation, PTZ and fixed box cameras for detail, and an equipment cabin providing power and analytics. When the area moves, the set relocates and is repositioned.
  • Rail-mounted option — A closed track along the outer wall carries a camera trolley on a circuit, stopping at preset points to identify. One trolley replaces cameras at many fixed positions.
  • Silo door safety — Face-recognition access control interlocked with oxygen and phosphine detectors, so the environment is confirmed safe before entry and every entry is recorded.

From capturing to recognising

Cameras are only the entry point. The real value is turning video into searchable, alarm-generating events.

  • Edge-side analytics — Analysis and event extraction happen at the edge; only alarms and event clips are uploaded, saving bandwidth and storage.
  • Flexible power and networking — Conductor rail or battery top-up, with wireless communication as an option, reducing on-site modification and civil works.
  • Connect to existing platforms — Events and alarms are pushed to the depot's existing management platform through standard interfaces: no duplicate system, no change to working habits.

Industry 02

3C Precision Electronics Manufacturing

Small parts, high precision, frequent changeover — the worst thing on this kind of line is equipment that cannot be changed.

  • Flexible feeding — Magazines, bowl feeders or trays chosen to suit the material, cutting changeover from days to hours.
  • Precision assembly and pressing — Hybrid force-position control, press curves fully recorded and deviations intercepted immediately.
  • 100% vision inspection — Dimensions, appearance and seating checked in a single pass, with results archived by serial number.
  • Speed-chain line integration — Stations added or removed freely, so later expansion does not mean rebuilding the structure.
Industry 03

Automotive Parts

Equipment must survive three shifts and data must stand up to traceability — the biggest difference between automotive automation and other industries.

  • Robotic welding / trimming / grinding — A 6-axis robot takes the heavy, highly repetitive work, with force control absorbing part-size variation.
  • In-line inspection and poka-yoke — Critical dimensions measured in line, with data linked to work order and batch.
  • Traceable process records — Every part gets a machining record, so quality issues can be traced to a specific station and time.
  • Design for durability — Critical components specified for continuous duty, cutting unplanned downtime.

Industry 04

New-Energy Batteries

Precision and safety matter equally, and every inspection result has to be traceable to the cell code.

  • Vision-guided assembly — High-precision positioning and assembly of tabs and busbars, removing the cumulative error of mechanical stops.
  • Surface defect inspection — Scratches, contamination and tab defects judged and sorted automatically.
  • Closed-loop data — Results are bound to the cell code, supporting later performance comparison and process optimisation.
  • Safety design — Electrical protection, emergency-stop circuits and cleanliness considered together.
Industry 05

Medical devices and consumables

Beyond automation, process records and a clean environment are also required.

  • Cleanroom compatibility — Materials, lubrication and dust extraction designed to cleanroom requirements.
  • Full-process parameter logging — Critical process parameters recorded automatically for audit and traceability.
  • Packaging and marking interlock — Inspection results drive marking, labelling and rejection in real time.
  • Cleaning and wiping processes — Proven cleaning-equipment structures adapted to meet clean-process requirements.

Common Modules

Capability modules reused across industries

Solutions differ greatly between industries, but underneath they use the same reusable modules. That makes our solutions cheaper and faster to deliver.

Mechanical base

Frames, conveying, lift-and-locate, load and unload mechanisms

Vision system

Cameras, lenses, lighting concepts and an algorithm library

Electrical control system

PLC programs, motion control, safety circuits

Software layer

HMI, recipe management, data interfaces

Your industry not listed? Not a problem

Our capability comes from processes, not from an industry list. Describe your process clearly and we can tell you whether we can take it on.
