The USS Exact Scan is a high-performance, patented machine vision inspection system that scans multiple features, at super-high resolution. (4,000 X 9,000 pixels.) The system consists of a unique vision sensor along with special lighting specifically designed and proven for automotive applications. USS Exact Scan software uses powerful software tools, along with a simple easy-to-read front-end display. The system easily integrates into assembly lines, and has a small (roughly three-foot wide) footprint. The software is all Windows based, and easy for plant engineers to learn. Rather than using many sensors to inspect multiple features, Exact Scan replaces them by using only one sensor per side, dramatically reducing overall cost and lowering maintenance.

The system is data-rich. Pass/fall data, along with the part identity, are stored in the PC. Images are automatically captured and stored in the system PC, along with the part identity for easy retrieval. The system plugs into a single 110 power source, and communicates to manufacturing plants' communication network via Ethernet or serially.

The main advantages of Exact Scan versus tradition vision sensors are:

Replaces multiple-camera applications: When your application requires more than one feature to inspect, Exact Scan is a cost-save versus traditional cameras. Because the resolution is so great, and because Exact Scan "scans" a large area, one sensor can often replace multiple sensors. This saves on hardware costs and lowers maintenance.

Super-high resolution: The USS Exact Scan system scans features at super-high resolution (4,000 X 9,000 pixels). This gives our customers the ability to inspect with a high degree of precision, and also inspect more features.

Data: The system saves more data than traditional area scan sensors. Because the system is PC-based, the system is high-performing, and stores a ton of data.
