Microscan honored by Manufacturing Tech Insights magazine

The company was one of the Top 10 Machine Vision Solution Providers for Manufacturing Industry 2016.

Microscan, a global manufacturer and pioneer of miniature machine vision smart cameras and barcode imaging solutions for industrial automation, earns recognition among the Top 10 Machine Vision Solution Providers for Manufacturing Industry 2016 by the technology magazine Manufacturing Tech Insights, as announced in their June 2016 issue.

“It’s a pleasure to honor Microscan as one among the Top 10 Machine Vision Solution Providers for Manufacturing Industry 2016 as it provides an excellent platform for enterprises to showcase their innovative solutions in the machine vision market,” says Laura Davis, Managing Editor of Manufacturing Tech Insights. “Microscan’s machine vision products help manufacturers to reduce costs, increase yields, improve product quality, and comply with industry regulations.”

Microscan manufactures the smallest user-friendly imaging solutions for automated data acquisition, part tracking, traceability, inspection, and measurement. Microscan’s vision is to leverage its expert position to help manufacturers and clinical labs create error-free operations via innovative track, trace, control, and analytics-driven solutions. The company offers machine vision systems, lighting, laser barcode scanners, 2D barcode readers and verifiers, handheld barcode imagers, and print quality inspection systems.

“We read the needs of the market in order to invent solutions that improve the ease, speed, and power with which companies can acquire data through images and leverage this data to optimize automated processes,” says Scott Summerville, Microscan President. “We manufacture, sell, and support solutions and custom applications in industries from packaging to electronics assembly and clinical instrumentation.”

Microscan's lineage of machine vision technology innovation extends over 30 years. From the invention of the first graphical-based machine vision interface, to the first web-based machine vision monitoring platform (the CloudLink interface), Microscan continues to empower users to easily add barcode reading, verification, and machine vision inspection tasks to their lines to ensure absolute traceability and 100% quality products and processes. Microscan holds one of the world's most comprehensive patent portfolios for machine vision systems technology, including ground-up hardware design, software algorithms, and illumination.

The Visionscape brand of machine vision hardware and software is an industry pioneer, providing a foundational toolset upon which the company’s breadth of machine vision cameras can be run using either the Visionscape FrontRunner interface for programmer-level inspection, or AutoVISION, the simplest machine vision interface for basic to mid-range applications. Released this June to Microscan’s machine vision portfolio, MicroHAWK offers the world’s smallest smart cameras, which are powered by any of the company’s software platforms, providing a single-device hardware solution for any imaging application from basic barcode reading to complete machine vision.
