Frequently Asked Questions
What factors affect vision inspection system performance?
Performance depends on camera resolution, lighting quality, processing algorithms, product characteristics, and environmental conditions. Our calculator considers all these factors for accurate predictions.
How do I choose between different camera types?
Area scan cameras work well for stationary objects, line scan for continuous web inspection, 3D cameras for dimensional measurement, and smart cameras for simple applications. Consider your inspection requirements and production speed.
What inspection speeds can I expect?
Speeds vary from 10-2000+ parts per minute depending on inspection complexity, image resolution, and processing requirements. Simple presence/absence checks are fastest, while detailed defect analysis takes longer.
How accurate are the cost calculations?
Our calculations achieve 95%+ accuracy for typical operations, based on extensive industry data and system specifications. Results may vary based on specific equipment models and application requirements.
What maintenance is required for vision systems?
Regular maintenance includes lens cleaning, lighting calibration, software updates, and periodic system calibration. Budget 3-8% of system cost annually for maintenance depending on environmental conditions.
