Along with the solid pace of the manufacturing industry moving towards high-end and intelligent development, the highly anticipated 29th Beijing Essen Welding & Cutting Fair successfully concluded at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center. This industry grand event, with a total exhibition area of 80,000 square meters, not only gathered over 900 well-known enterprises from home and abroad but also became a proving ground for cutting-edge technologies in core manufacturing fields such as automotive, rail transit, and aerospace. In this exchange feast focusing on intelligent equipment and green manufacturing, Vizum made an appearance with its overall 3D vision smart welding solution, discussing the broad prospects of machine vision empowering modern industry with global merchants.
Addressing Pain Points Directly: Self-developed Vision Technology Reshapes Complex Scenarios
Modern industrial welding sites are often accompanied by extremely harsh physical environments such as strong arc light, spatter, and dust, and traditional machine vision is frequently inadequate when facing highly reflective metals and complex outdoor scenarios. Deeply understanding the industry’s pain points, Vizum, relying on its profound technological accumulation, demonstrated the innovative solution of its self-developed 3D industrial camera to the onsite audience. By innovatively adopting a technical route combining self-developed line laser with binocular stereo vision, Vizum has effectively compensated for the operational shortcomings of traditional structured light and ToF vision solutions under harsh welding conditions, endowing industrial cameras with six core advantages: high precision, high speed, large depth of field, large field of view, strong light resistance, and anti-reflection. This enables Vizum’s vision system to maintain stable output in intricate industrial sites, becoming the “sharp eyes” of welding robots.
Full-Process Breakthrough: ViEye (Welding) Assists Smart Welding Upgrades
At the exhibition booth, the ViEye (Welding) series cameras, specifically designed for smart welding, became the focus of attention for many professional visitors. Among them, the ViEye Pro Seam & Pool Dual-Measurement Camera sparked heated onsite discussions with its powerful comprehensive performance. Abandoning the single-node monitoring mode, this equipment innovatively integrates six major functions: static area scan, dynamic line scan, seam extraction, seam tracking, high-precision RGB, and weld pool monitoring, truly realizing full-lifecycle monitoring covering pre-welding, in-welding, and post-welding stages.
Its detection speed of 3,000 lines per second complements its sub-millimeter precision, providing solid visual guidance for complex and variable welding processes and effectively ensuring the efficiency and molding quality of production operations. In addition, under the impact of strong light up to 480,000 lumens and a dust-filled environment, the IP65-rated ViEye Pro camera can still accurately extract weld seam features, demonstrating outstanding anti-interference capabilities.
Software-Hardware Synergy: MF Platform Simplifies Tedious “Teaching”
Simplifying repetitive teaching operations is a long-standing industry demand in the transformation of welding automation. During the exhibition, Vizum showcased to the industry a complete ecosystem leaping from hardware to “software-hardware synergy.” As the perfect partner to ViEye (Welding), the MF Platform greatly lowers the application threshold with its intuitive modular interface design. This platform not only smoothly supports seam fusion, seam selection, and editing but also easily handles complex structural profile welding and template import tasks. The deep coupling of ViEye (Welding) and the MF Platform transforms complex programming logic into visualized smart operations, reduces the repetitive teaching workload for welders, substantially simplifies traditional teaching operations, and injects entirely new momentum into flexible manufacturing.
Booth Highlights: In-depth Exchanges Validate Product Value
During the several-day exhibition, Vizum’s booth attracted the attention of numerous professional buyers and technical experts from the fields of machinery manufacturing, shipbuilding and offshore engineering, and new energy equipment, with both sides conducting in-depth discussions on the implementation of 3D vision technology in specific processes. The efficient demonstration of products on-site and the professional answers from the technical team won high recognition from domestic and overseas merchants. Every in-depth business negotiation and technical exchange not only validated the urgent market demand for high-quality vision welding solutions but also provided valuable industry insights for Vizum’s subsequent technological iterations.
Non-stop Progress: Co-building a New Ecology of Intelligent Manufacturing with 3D Vision
The successful conclusion of the 29th Beijing Essen Fair is a phased summary and, moreover, the starting point of a brand-new journey. Through this grand event, Vizum not only demonstrated its solid self-research and development capabilities in the field of 3D industrial vision to the world but also conveyed its firm determination to promote industrial upgrading with vision technology. In the future, Vizum will continue to take root in frontline industrial scenarios, continuously polish its product matrix, and work hand in hand with vast industry partners to jointly construct a smart, efficient, and green new welding ecology.
