Improve your visual quality inspection process

Neurala’s Vision Inspection Automation (VIA) software helps manufacturers improve their vision inspection and quality control processes to increase productivity, providing flexibility to scale to meet fluctuating demand. Easy to set up and integrate to existing hardware, Neurala VIA software reduces product defects while increasing inspection rates and preventing production downtime – all without requiring previous AI expertise.

How Neurala’s Vision AI software works

Understanding what your Vision AI is “seeing”

Neurala’s Explainability feature highlights the area of an image causing a vision AI model to make a specific decision about a defect. With this detailed understanding of the workings of the vision AI model, manufacturers can build better performing AI models that continuously improve processes and production efficiencies.

Multiple inspection points on complex products
Neurala's Multi-ROI (region of interest) feature helps ensure that all components of particular interest are in the right place and in the right orientation, without any defects. Multi-ROI can run from a single inspection camera, which dramatically reduces the cost per inspection, without slowing down the run time.

Innovation that’s fast, easy and affordable

Neurala VIA - Beyond machine vision
Defects that are easy for a human to see can be difficult for machine vision to detect. Adding vision AI dramatically increases your ability to detect challenging defect types such as surface anomalies and product variability. Neurala VIA helps improve inspection accuracy and the percentage of products being inspected. You can build data models in minutes, then easily modify and redeploy for changes on the production line.

As e-commerce expands at phenomenal rates, handling shipment is proving to be a herculean task. Effective supply chains that process more and deliver in less time are critical to managing consumer expectations and capitalizing on this upward trend.

JustPick Key Advantages

AI-powered vision systems help robots ‘see’ so they can perform tasks for order fulfillment much more cost-efficiently. With JustPick, robots no longer need to be trained to recognize objects, allowing them to sort and handle large quantities of unknown SKUs on the fly.

Process large, random inventories without programming

Automated sorting to increase throughput

Reduced overhead costs & uninterrupted operations

Compatible with over 20 major robot brands

JustPick Key Features
Created for the e-commerce picking process, JustPick’s custom-built functions help robots identify and pick packages of different shapes and sizes autonomously.

‘Unknown’ picking
JustPick eliminates the need for robots to ‘know’ what objects are in order to pick, allowing large inventories to be processed without having to learn each SKU one by one.

Intelligent gripper

Upon locating an item, JustPick automatically configures the optimum gripping approach, and if needed, adjusts the number of active suction cups to ensure a secure grasp.

Easy integration
JustPick is compatible with over 20 robot brands, numerous PLCs, and 3D cameras including ToF, structured light, and stereo vision.

Faster set up
No programming is required to operate JustPick. Our user-friendly UI allows users to drag-and-drop preset function blocks to create their unique workflow.

A NEW GENERATION OF MACHINE VISION SOFTWARE

MVTec MERLIC is an all-in-one software product for quickly building machine vision applications without any need for programming.

It is based on MVTec's extensive machine vision expertise and combines reliable, fast performance with ease of use. An image-centered user interface and intuitive interaction concepts like easyTouch provide an efficient workflow, which leads to time and cost savings.

MERLIC provides powerful tools to design and build complete machine vision applications with a graphical user interface, integrated PLC communication, and image acquisition based on industry standards. All standard machine vision tools such as calibration, measuring, counting, checking, reading, position determination, as well as 3D vision with height images are included in MVTec MERLIC.

MERLIC 5

MERLIC 5 introduces a new licensing model for greatest possible flexibility. It allows customers to choose the package – and price – that exactly fits the scope of their application. Depending on the required number of image sources and features (“add-ons”) for the application, the packages Small, Medium, Large and X-Large as well as a free trial version is available. This new "package" concept replaces the previous "editions" model.


With the release of MERLIC 5, MVTec’s state-of-the-art deep learning technologies are finding their way into the all-in-one machine vision software MERLIC. Easier than ever before, users can now harness the power of deep learning for their vision applications.

MERLIC 5 includes Anomaly Detection and Classification deep learning technologies:

The "Detect Anomalies" tool allows to perform all training and processing steps to detect anomalies directly in MERLIC.
The "Classify Image" tool enables using classifiers (e.g., trained with MVTec's Deep Learning Tool) to easily classify objects in MERLIC.

Liebherr is making its expertise in the field of industrial robot vision applications available to a wide user group with the LHRobotics.Vision technology packages

The technology packages consist of a projector-based vision camera system for optical data collection and software for object identification and selection, collision-free withdrawal of parts, and robot path planning to the stacking point.

Software
Basic license:suitable for customers who only need to roughly set the gripped workpiece down. Path planning is not necessarily required for this. Due to the lack of robot model and obstacles, it is also suitable for customers who place less value on collision checking outside the bin, for example in cases where the gripper is never able to fully enter the bin.


Pro license:
The professional license offers unrestricted use of the LHRobotics.Vision software. This license is particularly suitable for customers who place value on full collision checking of the path from removal to possible stacking

Smart bin-picking software

Design a complex application without any programming knowledge at all. LHRobotics.Vision makes it possible. The intuitive graphical user interface enables quick entry of all necessary information using simple steps, starting with:

- Attaching workpieces

- Configuration of transport containers

- Models can be created directly in the software for simple geometry, or existing CAD data can be imported

Step by step to the right grip

In order to be able to realistically represent withdrawal of parts including all axis movements in the software, highly detailed grippers are created – even bendable grippers or a 7th or 8th axis can be represented. The interfering contour takes into account the current status of the gripper – open or closed. Again, existing CAD data can be accessed.

When the workpiece and gripper meet, the task is to define suitable picking positions. This can be done by visually positioning the gripper or by precisely defining the coordinates. Degrees of freedom can be tested, and even realistic removal cycles can be simulated with the LHRobotics.Vision Sim plugin. This enables the optimization of the gripper already within the software.

Integrated simulation possibilities with LHRobotics.Vision Sim

If changes are necessary, for example modified or completely new parts are to be gripped, you'll want to test in advance if it works. In our option package LHRobotics.Vision Sim, this possibility is included. As offline programming, i.e. without intervening in the running cell, the feasibility can be tested. The entire process can therefore be tested in the cell and put into operation in advance.

The environment in view

Once parts and grippers have been created, the periphery follows. The robot used is selected from the library to check the work area. Any obstacles can be taken into account:

- Input of obstacles present in the robot’s work area

- Hand-eye calibration of the system between sensor and robot

- Definition of framework conditions for collision-free withdrawal of parts

- Path planning
