WPI Launches New Division
WPI Vision, a division of World Precision Instrument, launched earlier this year. WPI Vision is in the business of enriching the stereo macroscopic process through the use of patent-pending technology to provide an incomparable user experience to any other product in its price point. By leveraging advances in displays, CMOS sensors and processing power, WPI Vision is redefining how macroscopic needs and problems are being met and answered.
In August, WPI Vision announced the immediate availability of ERMA, the Enhanced Reality Microscope which offers a 3D experience. This is perfect for Electronic Assembly and Inspections, Printed Circuit Board Assembly, and many other applications. With over 35 claims on the patent, ERMA is setting new expectations for workstation throughput.
“This is a game changer for the PCBA and other industries. For the first time we have increased return on investment (ROI) by solving some of the current problems in the manufacturing process. No more focusing – it self-focuses through the onboard computers. The real-time, high definition, 3D images paired with a 30mm depth of field, and a programable scanning feature are just a few of the innovations of ERMA. All of them together mean assembly and inspection stations experience a significantly higher yield with greater accuracy.” ( Steve Dunn, WPI Vision Manager)
The WPI Vision Enhanced Reality Microscope offers:
- Three dimensional viewing experience using two synchronous, HD cameras
- Enormous 30 mm Depth of Field allows a circuit board and the top of a capacitor to remain in focus without adjustments
- A working distance of 120-300 mm means user can be do more with a single instrument, saving time and bench space
- Self-focusing happens automatically using ERMA’s onboard computer
- Automatic digital panning lets users navigate to preset locations on a stationary object with the press of a button
- Easy to use, ERMA requires only a 2-minute setup
- Eyepiece-free viewer means stunning imagery with less eye strain and a comfortable user experience
- Capture still images and videos easily
When time is money, and ROI is critical, ERMA is your solution. WPI Vision offers a hassle-free, 14-day trial before purchase, too. WPI Vision is a wholly owned subsidiary of World Precision Instrument. Founded in 1967 WPI is a world leader in research laboratory product design and manufacturing. With offices around the globe.
