From March 3rd to 5th, 2022, the Guangzhou International Industrial Automation Technology and Equipment Exhibition (SIAF), the vane of the intelligent manufacturing industry in South China, was successfully held in Hall B of the Pazhou Complex of the China Import and Export Fair. Cognex showcased a variety of heavyweight new products and solutions, including the ViDi EL classification tool, DataMan 280 series fixed barcode readers, DataMan 8700 series handheld barcode readers, HSSM (high-speed steering mirrors), and power battery full production process visual inspection systems.
Nowadays, with the continuous upgrading of industrial digitalization and intelligence, machine vision has also ushered in the climax of application. Cognex participated in this exhibition to share the latest scientific and technological achievements and empower digital transformation with superior products.
ViDi EL Classification Tool
The first is the latest deep learning tool, the ViDi EL classification tool. The core function of Edge Learning is based on deep neural network autonomous analysis, which quickly helps customers realize the application of product types and assembly verification, and solves complex problems such as recognition, detection, and classification that cannot be solved by traditional vision.
The ViDi EL classification tool uses deep learning technology to simplify classification. This simple and easy-to-use tool does not require a GPU, and a small number of images can be used to complete training learning. The ViDi EL classification tool provides an intuitive graphical user interface, real-time feedback, and a fast and simple workflow that makes the solution accessible to people of all skill levels.
DataMan 280 series fixed-mount barcode readers
Then there's Cognex's recently introduced DataMan 280 series fixed-mount barcode readers, which are small in size, fast in decoding, easy to set up, and packed with valuable Industry 4.0 features such as web browser connectivity and performance monitoring. Designed for better item tracking in the manufacturing and logistics supply chain, the DataMan 280 solves a wide range of 1D, 2D, and direct part mark (DPM) code applications.
DataMan 8700 series handheld barcode readers
In addition, Cognex's innovations in handheld barcode readers and verifiers are iterative in line with the production needs of our customers. The handheld DataMan 8700DX, which is iteratively developed according to the application scenario, has a comprehensive algorithm and can self-adjust the light according to the ambient light for code reading, which can still be used normally in harsh scenes with water stains, oil stains, and dust. As a result, DataMan 8700DX has one of the highest water and oil resistance ratings on the market. In addition, DataMan 8700DX also includes multiple wired and wireless series such as Bluetooth and WiFi versions to meet the various needs of different customers.
HSSM (High Speed Steering Mirror)
Cognex also showcased its innovative DataMan 475X barcode reader with HSSM (High Speed Steering Mirror). Nowadays, in terms of large-field field reading, the industry will use short-throw lenses for code reading, which will cause reading diffusion, that is, the reading field is wide, but the decoding rate decreases, and the surrounding image is also easy to distort. The Cognex DataMan 475X barcode reader with HSSM (High-Speed Steering Mirror) eliminates this problem and makes it easy to read barcodes with a wide field of view.
The whole production process of power battery
Vision inspection systems
In this exhibition, Cognex not only brought comprehensive products and solutions, but also brought an analog assembly line for cell inspection, equipped with DS800 series products, which can realize the weld inspection of the top cover of the cell. In addition, VisionPro Deep Learning for cell sealing nail appearance and welding concentricity inspection, DataMan 475V for cell skin DPM QR code level verification, DataMan 370 series for cell skin DPM QR code reading, In-Sight 3D-L4000 for cell top cover flatness inspection, and cell top cover OCR reading for hole presence or absence In-Sight 9912 and other products for solder joint position inspection. Through the functional advantages of each product, the fully automated testing process is realized, and the product quality and production efficiency are improved.
In addition, Cognex was invited to participate in the "Machine Vision - Intelligent Solutions Seminar" held at the same time. Cognex Product Specialist Sales Cai Peizhang and Cognex Barcode Reader Product Manager Wang Feilong introduced the latest developments in Cognex deep learning technology and industrial barcode verifiers to the audience.
The above is the key content of this exhibition, this exhibition also indicates that the direction of machine vision in the future will move towards rapid deployment, rapid implementation, and rapid detection, requiring engineers to simplify debugging, low difficulty to get started, stable detection, and greatly shorten the deployment time and cycle of the current project, while meeting or even exceeding the detection capabilities required by customers.
The rapid development of the automation track is irreversible, and if you want not to fall behind, only by laying out innovation in advance, embracing market demand, and continuously improving product strength is the way to development, in order to open a new "horizon" of industry. Based on this, Cognex's requirements for its own products are simpler, easier to use, and more versatile, and at the same time, we strive to achieve the ultimate cost performance to solve problems for more customers. Looking forward to meeting you again next time!

Cognex Barcode Readers—Ten Reasons Why You Should Choose an Image Barcode Reader
1. Read rate
The read rate is the most important way to measure a handheld computer. The read rate is the number of barcodes read divided by the total number of barcodes attempted to be read. It is usually expressed as a percentage, with the closer to 100% the better. That is, the read rate is a measure of how much the reader reads the application.
