MVTec Partner Meeting at Wageningen University
MVTec's distribution partner in the Netherlands, Data Vision, hosted a meeting of MVTec Certified Integration Partners (MCIP) at Wageningen UR Green Vision in October.
MVTec's exclusive distributor in the Netherlands, Data Vision, encourages
knowledge in the field of machine vision. The last meeting at the end of
October 2013, took place at GreenVision, the centre of expertise on computer
vision in the agrifood industry of Wageningen UR (University & Research
centre).
All participants of the MCIP meeting are employees of companies which are
certified by MVTec to be a member of HALCON's circle of excellence, the so
called MVTec Certified Integration Partner Program. These companies are
specialists in system integration and in building machine vision solutions,
based on MVTec's standard machine vision software HALCON.
We had the idea for these unique meetings three years ago, says Harm
Hanekamp, Sales Manager and Coordinator of the Integration Network at Data
Vision. Meanwhile, our meetings are a great success because all
participants benefit from their different backgrounds and the unusually
close team spirit of the group. The participating companies support each
other. That means human resources as well as different know-how can be
shared for complex vision projects.
Hanekamp explains that the group actively works to standardize and optimize
their project approach. Furthermore, the delivering of robust solutions,
risk management and reducing costs and mistakes are important tasks. In the
future, about three or four meetings a year will be organized by Data Vision
hosted at different the MCIP members' locations.

Featured Product
Schmalz Technology Development - The Right Gripper for Every Task
In order to interact with their environment and perform the tasks, lightweight robots, like all industrial robots, depend on tools - and in many cases these are vacuum grippers. These form the interface to the workpiece and are therefore a decisive part of the overall system. With their help, the robots can pick up, move, position, process, sort, stack and deposit a wide variety of goods and components. Vacuum gripping systems allow particularly gentle handling of workpieces, a compact and space-saving system design and gripping from above. Precisely because the object does not have to be gripped, the vacuum suction cupenables gapless positioning next to each other.
