i-Label, in common with all of the Vision Appliances from IPD, is designed for total ease of use, providing the user with excellent, repeatable results, for a whole range of printing and packaging label inspections.
The i-Label intuitive interface makes it easy for users to get label inspections up and running quickly.
A sequence of interface screens guides users through the steps needed to set up an inspection task, including defining parameters for acceptable label positions and angles.
Using proprietary neural network technology, i-Label then automatically learns the variation in good labels.
The learned label and inspection parameters can be saved as a "solution" and quickly restored or downloaded when the label is changed.
Solutions can be saved on the vision appliance or on a network so that a particular label inspection can be trained for one manufacturing line and used on many others.
Users interface with i-Label through a standard web browser, enabling them to configure, remotely monitor and debug their applications.
The vision appliance is available with an external camera interface that supports a variety of industry-proven cameras makes and a dedicated display output allows the user to run necessary checks prior to running the finished application. Request a free brochure from Firstsight Vision ...
