Image processing with advanced
functions that’s easy to use.
The AX40 inherits image processing technology built up over many years and
know-how derived from hands-on experience in the field. Even more important,
it is designed for the kind of performance requirements demanded by
our customers. Combining ease of use with sophisticated
functions, we have created an image processing device
that reaches a new level of perfection.

Color images are displayed at high accuracy during inspection
and both color and gradation are processed.
The AX40 offers easy-to-grasp visual comprehension.
[Functions]
Fully featured with basic functions such as 360° contour matching,
smart matching, and versatile rotation and positional adjustment.
[Setting and Operation]
Maintenance and initial setup support functions included
and an easy-to-use operation menu.
Interface
Operator stress is reduced thanks to a high-speed memory slot,
high-speed Ethernet (100BASE-TX), and software tools.

Features
Versatile image processing that enables gray scale and color processing.
A world first!
∗
Differentiation processing is possible in addition to color and gray scale processing and binarization. High precision image processing
means you can use it in a wide range of applications.

Verify images on a beautiful color monitor. View two images simultaneously.
The AX40 uses a dedicated LCD VGA color
monitor. Visual clarity is in a league apart
from conventional NTSC monitors.
Judgment results are displayed large and in
color, which makes them easier to see. A
font consisting of 18-dot characters is used,
so even Japanese kana and kanji
characters can be displayed.

360° contour matching
A world first!
By calculating contour lines and judging,
stable positional detection is possible even
for hidden, overlapped objects that have
been difficult to detect up to now. Thanks to
this, better yields are achieved.
∗
Smart matching
A world first!
Gray scale matching makes sub-pixel
positional detection possible. Furthermore,
shape inspection, such as for the detection
of chipped objects, can be carried out
simultaneously with the gray scale
difference processing function.

Numerical calculation/
judgment output
Top class
The computation function, which has been
troublesome up to now, now supports
Japanese, so settings can be easily made,
even by beginners to image processing.
Also, operation has become even easier
thanks to the ability to set both numerical
calculation and judgment output on the
same screen.

Versatile rotational and positional adjustment
Highly accurate and reliable inspection is
realized by automatically adjusting object
orientation and stop position deviation.
Since adjustment is done using gray scale
data, the AX40 shows its strength when it
comes to changes in brightness.
Complicated adjustments are possible
because of the priority adjustment function.

In order to boost rotational position
accuracy, filter processing is used to
realize stable image processing even for
images containing much noise.
