Stents are tiny,
precision-engineered components that are placed inside the human body.
They are designed to withstand considerable mechanical and biological
forces to prevent their failure while inside the body. With our
VisionGaugeŽ OnLine machine vision and inspection systems, you can
perform high-accuracy stent inspection and non-contact measurement. Our systems produce excellent
results in high magnification conditions, can be fully automated, and
have a resolution of 0.1 microns.
In the medical industry every stent is inspected
individually. This can be a hard task to perform, especially if the
operator is in the uncomfortable position of working solely with a
microscope. All visual inspections provided by our machine vision
systems are done from a computer screen. Furthermore, our easy-to-use
software can be fully programmed so no human intervention is needed for
the inspection. You can automatically perform many dimensional measurements such as
length, inner, and outer radius.
Our non-contact measurement and inspection
systems can be customized to meet your needs with features such as:
High-precision crossed-roller movement with
0.1-micron encoder feedback
Interchangeable levels of magnification
Computer controlled illumination, direct or reflected
Computer controlled movement in 3-D
Computer controlled motorized zoom and focus
Vibration isolation
VisionGaugeŽ
OnLine contains color verification and pattern matching
algorithms that can identify defective stents. When a defect or flaw is
detected, a signal can be sent to stop the inspection, a picture can be
taken and put into a report, and statistics and graphs can be created;
there are many possibilities. Contact us to learn more about how
VisionGaugeŽ can help you easily complete your stent inspection. |
