Inserting a 0.016-inch (16 thou) wire into a 0.017-inch needle leaves virtually zero room for error. In this video, SEYMOUR Advanced Technologies showcases automated micro-assembly engineered for high-precision applications across medical devices, aerospace, and defense. By pairing high-resolution 3D vision guidance with compact industrial robotics, the system completes delicate insertions reliably without component damage. How the system works: 1. Locate & Pick: High-res 3D sensors pinpoint coordinates while a vacuum gripper verifies pick delta. 2. Quality Inspection: Pre-screens components for bends, length, and surface defects. 3. Vision Alignment: Real-time dynamic relative spatial calculation. 4. Micro-Insertion: High-repeatability insertion using sub-micron resolution robotics. 5. Post-Inspection & Logging: Validates depth and angle for 100% QA traceability. Featured Technologies: • SEYMOUR Advanced Technologies – Custom Automation & Integration • LMI Technologies – Gocator® 3D Smart Sensors (5-micron resolution) • Mecademic Industrial Robotics – Meca500 & MCS500 (5-micron repeatability) What is the tightest tolerance challenge your production line is facing right now? #MicroAssembly #Robotics #3DVision #MedicalDeviceManufacturing #SystemIntegration

How do you achieve 100% quality control in high-speed semiconductor manufacturing? ⚙️ Micro-scale defects require sub-micron precision. From silicon wafer inspection to final packaging, Gocator® 3D smart sensors and Line Confocal Imaging (LCI) technology are transforming inline semiconductor inspection by delivering high-speed, high-resolution measurements directly on the factory floor. Key inspection stages automated by LMI solutions: Silicon Wafer Inspection: Rapidly detect sub-micron scratches and surface defects. BGA Inspection: Shadow-free scanning and coplanarity measurement on highly reflective solder balls. Wire Bonding Inspection: Measure loop height and instantly identify missing or broken wires. Wafer Flatness & Warpage: Track precise dimensional measurements and surface deformation. Underfill & Glue Bead Inspection: Verify dispense paths with high-accuracy volume measurements. Why choose Gocator®? Powered by the GoPxL® unified vision platform, all inspection processes run directly on-device—meaning no external PC or cloud connection is required. This drastically reduces system complexity, improves uptime, and easily scales across your entire production line. 📥 Ready to optimize your inspection line?

Scanning highly reflective metal prismatic terminals and transparent protective foils is one of the toughest automated inspection challenges on an EV battery line. Our comprehensive booth walkthrough from The Battery Show Europe last month demonstrates how to solve these bottlenecks by executing all measurement and decision-making logic directly at the edge. Join our application experts live this August to see us solve inspection challenges with Gocator sensors and cameras at all about automation Zurich (August 26-27, 2026) and CSEAC 2026 in Wuxi, China (August 31 - September 2, 2026)!

This case study highlights how Octum, Pharmabotix, and LMI Technologies collaborated to solve a complex inspection challenge in the pharmaceutical industry. By integrating the Gocator 5516 line confocal sensor with robot-based automation, the team created a turnkey solution capable of performing high-precision 3D inspection—including flatness, length, and width measurements—on difficult-to-scan surfaces like translucent microplates. By capturing 3D topography and tomography in a single scan, LCI technology opens the doors to solutions unsolvable with traditional 3D scanners. Take a look at how the 5500 series is helping automate these critical inspections: https://lnkd.in/eQAbAxj2 #LMI3D #MedicalDevices #ElectronicsManufacturing #LineConfocal #3DInspection #PrecisionEngineering
