360° contour matching
By calculating contour lines and judging,
stable positional detection is possible even
for hidden, overlapped objects that have
been difficult to detect up to now. Thanks to
this, better yields are achieved.

Versatile rotational and positional adjustment
Highly accurate and reliable inspection is
realized by automatically adjusting object
orientation and stop position deviation.
Since adjustment is done using gray scale
data, the AX40 shows its strength when it
comes to changes in brightness.
Complicated adjustments are possible
because of the priority adjustment function.

Smart matching
∗
A world first!
Gray scale matching makes sub-pixel
positional detection possible. Furthermore,
shape inspection, such as for the detection
of chipped objects, can be carried out
simultaneously with the gray scale
difference processing function.

by filter processing
In order to boost rotational position
accuracy, filter processing is used to
realize stable image processing even for
images containing much noise.

Numerical calculation/
judgment output
The computation function, which has been
troublesome up to now, now supports
Japanese, so settings can be easily made,
even by beginners to image processing.
Also, operation has become even easier
thanks to the ability to set both numerical
calculation and judgment output on the
same screen.
