INDUSTRIAL FEATURES
High-Speed Imaging Capabilities and Applications Expand
Dec 8, 2020 — Fast and efficient delivery of product into the customer’s hands is the endgame in manufacturing. Any defect that occurs as products progress along the manufacturing line may be magnified, which can cause bottlenecks in production or require expensive fixes down the line. When high volumes and yields are added on top of the goal of quality control, problems must be caught quickly and reliably. Such demands help to explain exactly where and why high-speed imaging has become critical to...
