The XRHCount from VisiConsult is a contactless counting system for surface mounted electronic components. To prevent production line stops the system delivers the exact amount of components directly into warehouse management databases.
Combined with an unmatched speed and accuracy this system will revolutionise slow and costly processes.
When it comes to the necessity of counting components before or after the assembly process, most manufacturers are still using the old fashioned approach of manual counting devices. XRHCount makes use of VisiConsult’s X-ray expertise in order to speed up this time consuming process.
The cabinet has a footprint of 1,25 x 0,85 m, a height of 2,2 m and is certified by the German TÜV. Significant is that there is no X-ray leakage, an automatic drawer, automated label printing and an interface to all common warehouse management systems. The system is also designed to provide maximum safety and an ergonomic working position for the operator. XRHCount supports components on reels, belts and in trays.
The system can reduce a component counting process from up to 5 minutes to as little as 10 seconds, with a mean accuracy of 99,9%. While a barcode scanner and label printer interface is provided, its AI (artificial intelligence)-powered automatic type estimation makes barcode scanning obsolete. Powered by CountingCloud, the estimator has access to a global online type database with thousands of reference component types. In case of a new type the operator reports the reel to the VisiConsult development team through a single click. Regular updates covering all reported types worldwide are shipped on a regular basis.
