inos – a strong partner with turnkey solutions for household appliances
Automate quickly, easily and efficiently
The market for white goods (such as washing machines, refrigerators, etc.) is changing. Industry players face major challenges – worldwide. With rising demand from emerging markets and the resulting requirement to offer cheaper products, competitive pressure is increasing and margins are shrinking. Smart appliances are conquering the market, as are sustainable, energy-efficient home appliances. At the same time, end customers want low-cost white goods that offer the highest possible quality in terms of design and functionality.
The increasing complexity of production environments and supply chains requires innovative concepts that automate processes efficiently, reliably and flexibly and integrate vision technologies. As a reliable system partner and full-service provider, inos supports customers in mastering these tasks with image processing and robot-guided system solutions. Optimally integrated into your supply chain, inos’ turnkey solutions improve the productivity of your manufacturing processes, the quality of your products and the cost balance. At the same time, inos’ vision systems can be integrated into existing lines quickly and easily and are effortless to handle.
Solution portfolio for the household appliance industry
Efficient package handling
More and more white goods have to be produced in less and less time. Often, the time and skilled personnel for manual loading or unloading of pallets are not available. With inos’ customized palletizing and depalletizing solutions, you increase throughput performance when handling small load carriers and also enable that palletizing and depalletizing tasks are executed with consistent quality. These fast, easy and reliable solutions work 24/7.
Robot guidance with machine vision
Reliability and accuracy are crucial for efficient detection of components’ positions. If the component is not positioned correctly, the robot cannot carry out the manufacturing process. Machine vision from inos enables the highest possible accuracy, optimum quality and process reliability in robot guidance. The vision technology determines the position of an object in 2D and 3D space in real-time and aligns the robot unit precisely.
2D and 3D position recognition
Measuring white goods
There is no room for manual reworking or rejects in the white goods industry. Components with faulty dimensions increase throughput times and production costs and impair companies’ carbon footprint. inos supports the white goods industry with intelligent 3D inline measurement technology and vision technology to make control processes more efficient and economical – 24/7.
Verify characteristics with inos
A crookedly mounted component, a scratched surface – consumers today will quickly change suppliers if their quality requirements are not met. A manual visual inspection is often error-prone and inefficient. inos takes over quality inspection for customers – in assembly, completeness, geometry and damage. In the assembly control process, production steps and components are constantly, reliably and efficiently inspected by inos.
