Vision Hawk inspecting document handling application

Here's a short video of a vision hawk and a strobe light inspecting a label being applied to an instruction manual.  This is running at 195 pieces /minute.  A reject sends a pulse to reject the bad assembly.

The label cannot be hanging over the edge of the instruction manual or it will cause them to stick together.  Contact us for information on this solution.
