In a market where production speeds continue to increase, reliable inspection is becoming increasingly important. At the same time, we see that many existing systems still operate with a limited detection range.
With IR-SmartVision, we are introducing a practical upgrade that immediately addresses this issue. By adding a third camera, it creates, as it were, an extra pair of eyes, thereby widening the field of view. This is a natural development driven by increasing production speeds and complexity. This development was initiated following discussions at Glasstec 2024.
Adding a third camera provides a broader view of the product, reducing blind spots and improving defect detection. This results in significantly better detection of critical defects such as Fin Defects, cracks, blisters, and hot spots.
What does this mean for you in practical terms?
- Elimination of blind spots
- Full product coverage
- Better and more consistent detection results
- Improved insight into your process
Most importantly: this upgrade can be implemented on existing installations without requiring a complete system replacement. Production speeds are a key driver behind the expansion of detection capacity. The move to three cameras is not a “nice-to-have,” but a logical next step in the evolution of industrial inspection. This upgrade can be applied to approximately 500 systems worldwide without the need for a system replacement.
IR-SmartVision directly improves inspection results, reduces rejects, and stabilizes production.
IR-SmartVision isn’t just a concept, it’s proven in the field. The system has been in validation since September 2025, and the results are excellent; customers are very satisfied.
Are you curious about what additional visibility could mean for your line?
Ultimately, it all comes down to one thing: process improvement through a more complete picture. Request more information with no obligation. We’d be happy to explore the possibilities within your current setup with you.
