Optical engineering is one of the key aspects in a vision system. VIMEC has dedicated research and development staff involved in the development of optimized optical configurations. Camera technology combined with dedicated illumination technology offers a great variety of inspection functionalities. In some cases these functionalities can be integrated into a single inspection system.

Mechanical design is done at VIMEC supported by 3D design software. Optical engineering design is combined with robust mechanical solutions to form the basis for a vision systems. The components are integrated in an industrial housing to shield then from the (production) environment.

VIMEC provides documented evidence that the inspection system meets the standards and requirements defined by the customer and industry. The 'quality' of the inspection system is documented in the Factory & Site Acceptance Test reports. These reports are sometimes further segmented in the Installation Qualification, Operational Qualification and Performance Qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ) reports.

VIMEC supports and services its visual applications around the world. The installed base includes: USA, Mexico, Brasil, France, Germany, Italy, Egypt, Pakistan, China, Japan etc. Through remote connection (secure Internet connection) VIMEC engineers can log in to the inspection system and take over control for training and service purposes. On site performance is performed to ensure the inspection system meets the quality standards and inspection accuracy required.
