Applied Vision Technology is a machine vision integration and consulting firm that provides complete vision solutions using Cognex machine vision products. Unlike other integrators, AVT devotes 100% of its engineering time to vision and vision-related issues. AVT has experience integrating vision systems across many industries and applications, including inspecting IV bags, camshafts, metal stampings, bottles, medical devices, and more. Their solutions often achieve very high accuracy rates while maintaining a zero defect tolerance.
2. APPLIED VISION TECHNOLOGY, INC.
Support and integration for Cognex Machine Vision products.
Applied Vision Technology (AVT) is a true vision integrator
and consulting firm vision products only. We do not just sell
the camera we provide a complete vision solution.
Unlike other Automation Integrators, AVT devotes 100%
of its engineering time to vision or vision related issues.
Our expertise allows you to achieve the highest standards
and the best possible performance of the vision system.
AVT is the ideal partner for high profile applications in industries where there is no
room for error or applications where other vision integrators have failed or would not
take the challenge upon themselves.
• We are one of very few vision companies that
guarantee our solution in a proposal.
• Our vision performance often achieves False
Reject Ratio close to 0% while still maintaining
0% False Accepts.
• AVT has integrated hundreds of Cognex cameras
for various industries in cooperation with many well-
established machine builders.
• Our vision solutions are often the
first of their kind on the market.
Case Study 1:
Five camera OCV inspection of over 360 characters on IV Bag with fully filled solution
within 330 milliseconds. This particular inspection was performed on moving product
at the speed of three bags per second and floating solution inside of the bag.
This vision solution utilized the theory of probability in its algorithm to properly
inspect the text when solution bubbles were covering the characters.
3. Case Study 2:
Inspection of automotive Cam Shafts
on a tray in a foundry where temperature
was extremely high and environmental
conditions did not allow for use of the light.
In our solution, the camera only used the
light emitted by extremely hot parts.
This specific application used another
unique algorithm that could handle various
levels of intensity of the emitted light due
to various cooling cycles.
Case Study 3:
Extensive work performed on a five camera vision
solution looking for slivers, slug marks and other flaws
on a finished product in metal stamping industry.
The challenge of this particular application was not only
limited to the very minute size of the defects but
covered a huge variation in metal surface finishes as well.
Our Motto:
“Everything is possible … the impossible just takes a little bit longer.”
AVT has never failed on any project, and never turned down any challenge.
Please let us know if you have a project but cannot find help!
Our strength is on applications which are very difficult or where our competitors
have trouble with. We guarantee our work, provide fixed price with all costs includ-
ed, provide up front mock-up demo’s to prove feasibility (at our cost in special cases)
and provide on-going support.
We not only build our customer base, we build B2B relationship with each customer.
We are very honest and straightforward. We make sure the risk to customer
is minimal.
