Eliminate the need for board stops and sensors
 
Often the use of vision systems in a cell, coupled with RoboFlo technology , can enable your company to reach a goal of zero-defects. The use of a camera coupled with RoboFlo allows the robot to actually perform as if it could see. The use of a low-cost vision system not only eliminates the need for expensive board stops and sensors, but significantly reduces the amount of waste and production errors that occur due to misalignment of mechanical devices such as board stops, conveyer rails, and custom tooling. If the use of one camera were not beneficial enough, RoboFlo systems have the ability to control as many as twelve cameras per system.
 
product inspecion
 
Another great use for RoboFlo's vision system is production inspection. Using a RoboFlo vision system, products can be visually inspected and pictures archived as products come off the production line. RoboFlo allows a quality history to be saved on disk for further reference. An image can be time stamped and a description can even be attached and saved in a file. This is not only beneficial for containment of defects, but can significantly save money from non-legitimate customer complaints. Companies using this visual information system can determine whether a product was defective or not when it left the plant.
 
low-cost
 
One of the most definitive advantages of using and implementing our vision system into your factory automation is it's low cost. In comparison to competitors' systems, a Futaba Vision System can bring immediate and profound cost savings due to actual system cost, shortened downtime and ease of implementation. With a substantial cost savings such as this, companies both large and small can afford to implement our automated systems and move their organization beyond the competition.
