WIESBADEN & FRANKFURT, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--In different stages of battery production, optical inspection systems from VITRONIC are taking over demanding inspection tasks to optimize production processes and guarantee final battery quality output.
As maximum process stability and process safety are becoming increasingly important in the production of high-performance batteries, optical quality inspection systems from VITRONIC are taking over demanding inspection tasks. With fast high resolution cameras, optimized illuminations and user friendly, well adapted software tools these systems automatically record visible changes to the process quality. They reliably identify and classify defective areas and parts without reducing production speed or throughput.
VITRONIC optical inspection systems conduct inline inspections to ensure the quality along the production chain.
In coating, packaging and assembly, they guarantee battery quality through
- surface and edge inspections
- contour and dimensional measurements
- 3D inspections of weld seams
- and the determination of component positions for precise pick & place (robot vision).
VITRONIC optical quality inspection systems can be adapted to the special requirements of automotive and battery manufacturers concerning production environments.

Industry and logistics
VITRONIC machine vision systems are used in a wide range of industrial applications to carry out precise or complex inspection tasks. Our automated solutions ensure the highest quality standards of welded and brazed seams and are used, for example, in the automotive and aerospace industries. We also offer flexible surface quality inspection for metal workpieces and endless material.
We support the pharmaceutical industry with seamless print, surface and geometry inspection systems, quality inspection and track-and-trace inspection solutions – which can also be validated thanks to our GAMP certification. For manufacturers of solar cells and modules, we are one of the largest independent partners for optical inspection systems, with over 1,000 installations worldwide.
Our customers in the area of material flow, parcel logistics and mail order seek to optimize their logistics processes. VIPAC systems from VITRONIC can be integrated at any point along the process chain for the automatic capture of product data, package data and customer-specific data. VIPAC reads addresses, barcodes, 2D codes, customer-specific codes and plain text (OCR) with maximum read rates, and measures and weighs packages online. This information is sent directly to the connected ERP systems or CRM solution.
VIPAC systems are used by global logistics companies in the courier, express and parcel sector and in mail order, warehousing and distribution, and manufacturing industry.
