Integrated control software for F150-3
Vision Composer
"Vision Composer" control software
makes it easy to achieve the optimum
inspection in flowchart format
Vision Composer
Features
Revolutionizing inspection based on image processing
Although visual sensors can be used based on simple menu settings, they have tended to lack functionality. On the other hand,
full-featured advanced image processing devices are capable of a variety of functions, but special programming is necessary.
The Vision Conposer makes it easy to achieve the optimum inspection in flowchart format.
a dialog box for item's conditions
Double-click on a box in the flow
chart to bring up a dialog box for
that particular item's conditions.
Inspection application edit window
The contents of inspection are displayed by
the flow chart. The flow of processing is
known at a glance.
The list of processing items is displayed. Operators can
create flow charts by dragging and dropping items from a
library of process items.

Editing of scene names
Scene data can be saved
using a name that describes the inspection for
easy searching and management. Scene data, "no
good" images, and other
data can be exchanged
between the F150 and a
computer.
Freely create the measurement screen.

Manage measurement results on a computer.
Measurement results can be transferred to a computer, making it
possible to manage and process data using a spreadsheet or other
software program.
Reduced display of measurement results
The menu screen can also be edited.
A text editor can be used to change the names and show/hide of
menu items.

Example: Recording daily inspection totals
Record the date and time of defect occurrences.
Print out each day's inspection data.
Transfer inspection data over a network
Use a spreadsheet or other tool for statistical processing.
Print and output files of flowcharts and
processing setting lists.
Settings can be verified at a glance.
Import data into a word processor program for easy creation of
reports.
