Core Technologies & Solutions
1. Machine Vision-Based Intelligent Manufacturing
Leverage TSLoom and Edge AI to transform visual data into actionable intelligence:
Roll-to-Roll Coating System
- Meniscus Shape Detection: Use machine vision to detect meniscus shape characteristics.
- Coating Thickness Prediction: Apply AI models to predict coating thickness in real time.
- Process Optimization: Dynamically adjust coating parameters to ensure uniformity.
A side-mounted camera (axial view) observes the meniscus (coating bead) cross-section between the die lip and web in real time, closing the loop from machine-vision shape detection to AI thickness prediction and dynamic parameter tuning to ensure film uniformity.

3. Advanced Robotic Applications
Innovate with VRCAM and VURT-X for precision material processing:
Laser-Based Material Removal System
- 3D Scanning & Path Planning: Use VRCAM to map part surfaces and generate optimal tool paths.
- Adaptive Material Removal: Control robot-mounted lasers with VURT-X real-time control to remove material with micron-level precision.
Laser Sintering-Based Patterning System
- Laser Sintering Process: Create electronic circuit paths using laser sintering.
- Defect Inspection: Detect circuit defects with machine vision and AI-based analysis.
4. On-The-Fly Laser Processing
Perform laser marking and processing with a scanner while the workpiece moves continuously on a conveyor—without ever stopping it—dramatically reducing tact time compared to the step-and-repeat (stop-process-move) indexing approach. An encoder detects the conveyor travel in real time and the scanner controller continuously corrects the marking coordinates, so the part keeps moving yet is processed with the same precision as a stationary target.
2D On-The-Fly
- Feed Synchronization: Detect conveyor travel with an encoder and offset the X·Y galvanometer marking coordinates accordingly.
- Continuous-Line Application: Process flat workpieces at high speed without stopping on conveyor marking and cutting lines, with a fixed focal distance.
3D On-The-Fly — VCANUS Technology
- 3D Path Generation: Generate optimal processing paths that follow curved and stepped surfaces from the workpiece’s 3D surface data (height map / CAD model).
- Real-Time Dynamic Focus Control: Perform feed correction (X·Y) and surface-height tracking (Z) simultaneously, using a z-shifter (dynamic focusing module) to keep the focus on the surface even on curved, stepped, and cylindrical geometries.
- Precise Synchronization: Align the encoder, scanner, and workpiece 3D coordinate systems and compensate for synchronization latency to maintain processing accuracy even at high feed speeds.
