When Machines Learn to See – Electronic Image Processing with sercos

Image processing is a key technology, and a majority of systems and machines already come with image processing systems. Image processing makes production faster, more reliable, and more cost effective, and also increases product quality. Industry experts forecast strong further growth in this area. With its new pictor and vicosys image processing systems, the specialist Vision & Control now also provides powerful components that can be used with the sercos automation bus. They can be integrated quickly, easily, and cost-effectively in machines and systems.

For many machine and system designers, sercos is the first choice when it comes to meeting requirements such as high data transmission rates, short cycle times, interference resistance, and the synchronization of all ring participants with low jitter. The sercos automation bus also provides users and developers with a wide range of components, covering axes and axis systems, axis controllers, PLCs and drives, and even sensors and other peripherals.
