MVTec at the SPS trade fair: High connectivity and easy process integration of the machine vision software MERLIC are in focus

â€¢ Slogan of the trade show appearance "MERLIC - your machine vision software for factory automation" underlines the capabilities of MVTec MERLIC to work together with all programmable logic controllers (PLCs) â€¢ Easy creation of complete machine vision applications even without programming knowledge

Munich, October 11, 2023 - MVTec Software GmbH (www.mvtec.com) a leading global manufacturer of machine vision software, will demonstrate at the SPS - Smart Production Solutions trade fair at hall 6, booth 424 from November 14 until November 16 how easy it is to integrate machine vision software into the process environment. "We consider machine vision to be the 'eye of production', because it offers decisive advantages for a wide range of applications, such as quality inspection or in collaboration with robots. It is important that the corresponding software can be easily integrated into the existing PLC environment. At the SPS, we want to show how this is possible and what advantages our easy-to-use MERLIC software offers. Accordingly, we have also chosen our trade show slogan 'MERLIC - your machine vision software for factory automation'", explains Dr. Maximilian LÃ¼ckenhaus, Director Marketing + Business Development at MVTec Software GmbH.

Benefit from the advantages of machine vision - even without programming knowledge
MVTec will also present the new version 5.4 of the easy-to-use machine vision software MERLIC at its booth. In addition to various further developments, the new release includes new plug-ins for direct communication with different PLCs. Furthermore, MERLIC comprises the latest machine vision technologies, including numerous deep learning methods. The special feature of MERLIC, however, is that even users who have no programming knowledge can benefit from the advantages offered by machine vision software. This is made possible by a graphical user interface that allows entire machine vision applications to be implemented using drag & drop.

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
