Microscan slates free 3-day Visionscape course for January

This free three-day advanced Visionscape Machine Vision Software training course will run January 19-21.

Microscan, a global technology leader in barcode, machine vision, verification, and lighting solutions, will host a three-day training course on advanced machine vision tools taught through hands-on exercises using Microscan’s advanced Visionscape Machine Vision Software platform.

The course will be held in Microscan’s headquarters in Renton, WA, from January 19-21, 2016 at 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM daily. Recommended for those with intermediate to advanced experience in machine vision or programming, the course is free and online registration is available for all users.

While human inspectors on assembly lines visually inspect parts to judge the quality of workmanship, machine vision systems use cameras and image processing software to perform the same evaluations tirelessly and with greater precision. Machine vision inspection plays and important role in achieving 100% quality control in manufacturing, reducing costs, and ensuring a high level of customer satisfaction. Machine vision systems not only provide product tracking by way of barcodes and text to create traceable production histories, but can also guide products through automated operations, match products with labels and packaging, and compare product features to expected shapes, colors, fill levels, and sizes.

Part of Microscan’s Certified Training program, this three-day machine vision training course offers an in-depth study of Microscan’s complete tool library available in its advanced Visionscape Machine Vision Software. Training will provide an overview of common machine vision applications with hands-on exercises to familiarize attendees with setting up inspection tools and programming jobs to solve a range of tasks from basic barcode reading and text recognition to complex measurements, defect detection, and guidance. Microscan machine vision technology experts will be available to offer one-on-one guidance on attendees’ specific applications and attendees are invited to bring their parts or barcodes to the event to discuss with the Microscan team.
