Utilizing robots for vision inspection systems not only adds value by improving the quality and accuracy of your process, it also reduces the number of cameras needed for inspection. That's because one 6-axis robot can move and manipulate an inspection camera into multiple positions with extreme precision, speed and repeatability. This reduces capital equipment costs and saves on floorspace by decreasing your vision inspection system's overall footprint.
As new industries emerge and companies adapt their manufacturing operations to stay competitive with the latest market trends, opportunities to improve production and the overall bottom line emerge. FANUC and our team of automation experts are leading the way in industries such as e-commerce and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where vision inspection systems can drastically improve manufacturing processes. Explore some of these game-changing applications below, then contact us if you have an application you envision is a fit for automation and robotics - We're up for the challenge!

Setting up iRVision for vision inspection is effortless, as it guides you through each step of the process. A powerful vision toolbox is integrated in the standard iRVision package to support any custom-made vision inspection system.
In addition, iRVision doesn’t require an interface to external devices or any additional hardware (such as PCs, monitors or side cabinets) for the set up and operation. The vision inspection process configuration can be done directly on the robot controller itself, on the Teach Pendant, or on any IE-capable device. Our entire range of inspection robots as well as all controllers are compatible with the iRVision solution because the controller hardware is ready for vision.
