Announcing Viconsys and Advanced Service Providers, partners in bringing a new and exciting advancement to papermaking and other web processes.
Vision technology is one of today's fastest growing applications, driven by dramatic new developments in cameras, in mathematical imaging analysis and data processing power.
Viconsys – a new company with the expertise, strong financing and clear targets has brought these new vision technologies together in a totally new, greatly advanced vision system for the paper industry. Viconsys was formed by what was the entire global paper industry machine vision group of Honeywell.
Advanced Service Providers – Largest independent Third Party service company in the U.S. on QCS will provide Sales, Installation and Service for the Viconsys Systems. ASP has a large, experienced group servicing major paper and plastics companies throughout the U.S. and is fully trained and supported by the Engineering and Technical expertise of Viconsys.
Why spend your limited capital dollars on obsolete technology. Current technology leaves a major gap in your ability to truly observe what is happening on your machine:
•
Two different technologies result in independent and isolated event handling but a process disturbance anywhere can be the root cause of a defect or a web break.
•
Systems have different manufacturers and cannot communicate effectively.
•
Trapped by history: The original decision to use PC's has left them with low image analysis capability, unsatisfactory event and defect detection and a system structure incompatible with high camera numbers.
•
Use of old camera technology.
•
Use of non-industrial signal routing: copper wires.
•
High life cycle cost.
Invest your money in the newest and best. Viconsys introduces the first system to integrate these two applications into a single, extremely powerful system to do the entire job.
•
One common technology, no differences like WMS and WIS
•
All events in all cameras will be analyzed like defects in WIS, but now with true Image Analysis mathematics
•
Powerful Image Processing Computer: each board has 1 FPGA processor, 9 DSP processors, incorporating the latest and greatest from new Imaging technology: capacity equal to more then 100 P4 processors. This allows true image analysis mathematics to be used in real time
•
Superior event detection capability compared to any of today's WIS systems
•
Every event sequence is built and displayed automatically, when it happens from the first camera, which saw the event, then next and so on until a defect is in the reel or has created a break. No backwards analysis is needed
•
No compression is used in analysis. Results are presented without compression.
•
Easy upgrades of any existing Hilcont, ABB, Metso, Papertech and Parsytec systems: cost efficient, simple chassis exchange
•
Considerably reduced hardware lowering initial cost, system expansion cost and installation and ongoing service cost.
•
Cost effective camera replacement for existing Hilcont systems.
This new technology is being introduced in March 2006 and will be available for delivery shortly thereafter.
