Have you ever wondered what the surface of your products<br />
looks like in areas where an inspection system has not taken<br />
a picture? Our system allows a complete view of the entire<br />
surface. While relevant areas are always saved in full resolution,<br />
the remaining surface images are compressed to save<br />
storage space.<br />
COMPLETE & FLEXIBLE SOLUTION<br />
An individual user interface and corresponding result notifications<br />
provide you with all the in<strong>for</strong>mation you need. Our flexible<br />
software design even allows you to integrate your own data<br />
<strong>for</strong> online quality assessment of coils. By defining individual<br />
archiving rules, you have full control over your data.<br />

in the development of precision measuring systems, combined<br />
with high-end technical surface inspection.<br />

Nothing Missed with <strong>surcon</strong> <strong>2D</strong> advanced<br />
A QUESTION OF PERSPECTIVE<br />
The appearance of certain defects can change drastically under<br />
different angles of illumination. An additional dark field configuration<br />
takes advantage of this and offers further optimisation<br />
of defect detection. Parallel image recording and processing<br />
ensures that no surface defect is overlooked.<br />
The camera and lighting geometry is adapted individually to<br />
the surfaces of your products <strong>for</strong> an optimal result. Rely on<br />
our know-how or send us material samples of the critical defects<br />
that occur in your process. Analogously to laboratory<br />
tests carried out in our company, we will provide you with a<br />
customised solution concept.<br />
The modular design allows you to retrofit existing surface inspection<br />
systems with dark field configurations, meaning you<br />
remain completely flexible even after installation.<br />

We Make It Fit!<br />
WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR CHALLENGE<br />
IMS has decades of experience in keeping high-precision<br />
measuring systems working continuously even in the most<br />
difficult environments. IMS <strong>surcon</strong> combines this knowledge<br />
with high-quality inspection technology to ensure permanently<br />
reliable surface inspection.<br />
SPECIALLY DESIGNED BLOWER SOLUTIONS<br />
Every system is optimised <strong>for</strong> the specific requirements on site.<br />
Be it tight spaces or special protection against the negative<br />
effects of adverse environmental conditions – we offer the<br />
perfect solution <strong>for</strong> your application.<br />

Get the Best Out of Your Data!<br />
SURFACES COME ALIVE<br />
A powerful and intuitive interface ensures that the most important<br />
results are always at hand. View the entire surface of<br />
current or past coils seamlessly. Zoom into any surface area<br />
and inspect defects in highest resolution.<br />
Views individually adapted to your requirements offer every<br />
user the most meaningful visual representation – from operator<br />
through quality engineer to research & development.<br />
FROM IMAGE TO QUALITY DECISION<br />
Sophisticated algorithms and a powerful artificial intelligence<br />
scan the surface data fully automatically <strong>for</strong> every anomaly<br />
and identify surface defects.<br />
Periodic defects indicate roll damage – a serious problem<br />
as it also leaves an imprint on every subsequent strip. Our<br />
algorithms detect periodic occurrences online and notify you<br />
immediately. An integrated quality evaluation module allows<br />
you to specify user-defined rules <strong>for</strong> evaluation of the strips<br />
and <strong>for</strong> alarm generation. Get immediate feedback on the<br />
quality of your product.<br />
UNLEASH THE FULL POTENTIAL<br />
Individual views <strong>for</strong> each user profile<br />
Simple export and reporting functions allow you easy access to<br />
and use of surface inspection results <strong>for</strong> further analysis. The<br />
system offers you excellent support <strong>for</strong> your decision making.<br />
Nevertheless, you can customise everything from detection<br />
settings to quality classification. You have complete control.<br />
