Because human operators possess refined sensibilities and the ability to respond flexibly when models change, in the present situation inspection is usually performed manually and the transfer to auto inspection methods has hardly begun.
However, at Techno Soft Systemnics, we are moving beyond this conventional wisdom to make available auto inspection by combining a robot that moves in the same way as a human operator in addition to sensors and a governing algorithm.
Using this system, we have succeeded in performing auto inspections of push switches (membrane switches) that are used in all kinds of devices including mobile phones, computers, control devices and home appliances We have also developed a method of measuring and determining the fingertip sensation experienced when pushing such switches.
The system is capable of package processing of product inspection, inkjet printing of inspection results, and storage and quality control of inspection data, thereby making an invaluable contribution to overall productivity improvement.
We have built up many years of experience in the field of image processing technology, and we are now combining this technology with human sensitivity and movement in an effort to meet the challenges of further development.
