Johnson & Johnson's Health and Beauty site in Sézanne, France, quickly set up a detection system that typically creates reliability problems.

Keyence's new ultrafast 2D metrology system gives the French subcontractor a leading edge.

LISI MEDICAL's plant in Miribel, a French town just outside the city of Lyon, specialises in the outsourcing of surgical implants and ancillary items. Consisting primarily of plates and screws, these parts require precision manufacturing and are inspected by the plant's metrology department. The typical tolerances are in the order of 0.1 to 0.05 mm.

Thanks to Keyence's IM Series image measurement system, SPPF's operators measure the dimensions of extrusions without any risk of variability. As a result, the company has optimised the quality of its products and established processes for analysing production deviations.

To provide high-speed, high-accuracy inspection facilities for production of a new range of vials, Capitol Europe has opted for KEYENCE optical micrometers in the TM-3000 series.

For the past few years, Renault's site in Cléon, France, has been using Keyence's LJ-G laser displacement sensors on its G9 engine production line. The site chose the sensors for their detection reliability and ease of use.

Tata Steel Rail France takes great care in inspecting the straightness of the ends of its rails so that its customers receive the straightest possible rails. As a result, it has recently retrofitted its end straightness inspection systems with Keyence's newest generation of CCD laser displacement sensors, the LK Series.

Over and above its unrivalled performances levels, this new series features a really easy parameter setting system.

This is without doubt the most complete vision system on the market. Already at top performance levels for speed, resolution, stability and the range of software tools, the XG-7000 Series can now also be programmed in a PC environment. The calculating power is located in a controller dedicated to image processing and not in a PC, thus avoiding problems of overloading and maintainability. This vision system combines flexibility, stability, and performance with simplicity. It can be used by all, for all applications.

Performance, productivity and user friendliness.
