Machine Vision · Automotive Manufacturing
Weld-seam inspection, gap-and-flush measurement and 3D robot guidance — vision that survives dark, shiny, oily sheet metal at takt.
Automotive vision fights the worst surfaces in the business: dark e-coat, mirror-shiny stampings and oily panels that defeat naive lighting. On top of that it is asked to do real metrology — weld-seam integrity, sealer beads, gap and flush on closures — where the answer is a measurement in fractions of a millimetre delivered at takt, not a pass/fail on a clean lab part.
The other frontier is guidance: 3D locating of panels in racks, bin picking of castings, and camera-to-robot calibration where an error does not produce a false reject — it drives tooling into a fixture. We screen vision engineers on the judgment this floor demands — lighting hostile surfaces, holding calibration across shifts, proving accuracy with gauge studies — and certify them at three depths.
Every engineer passes a practical AI technical screener before they can be matched. On top of that, they can earn certification in this track at three levels — and only certified engineers can be assigned to your project.
Configures well-defined inspections and sets up standard lighting.
Designs robust inspection/guidance, handles calibration and variation independently.
Architects demanding vision systems, solves difficult lighting and accuracy problems.
