AMETEK Surface Vision Slit Inspection System SmartView®

SmartView^® Slit Inspection reliably detects, classifies, tracks and reports surface defects on both sides of multiple coil slits, even at line speeds greater than 1,000 feet per minute.

The system provides complete, high-resolution surface inspection at full line speeds, delivering instant feedback. This allows the operator to act swiftly to limit waste, increase yields and safeguard product quality.
Providing an automatic quality inspection solution that easily surpasses manual methods, SmartView^® Slit Inspection combines patented inspection and classification technology with extensive engineering knowledge for cutting-edge defect detection and reporting.
Widely used in the flat-rolled metals processing industry, SmartView Slit Inspection is an industrial-grade surface inspection solution for slitting processes in metals industries.
CONSISTENT DATA RECORDS
SmartView Slit Inspection creates accurate mapping and precise reporting for each coil or mult. These records can be used in supply chain management or customer quality assurance, and archived for claim resolution.

ELIMINATES RECOILING NEEDS
By accurately scanning and reporting both sides of the strip, with instant operator notification, SmartView Slit Inspection ensures there is no need to recoil to investigate suspected quality issues. This speeds up the process, increasing production yield with no loss of quality.
FASTER LINE SPEEDS
Our patented inspection and classification technology combines with expert equipment configuration to provide reliable, automatic 24-hour inspection without having to slow slitter lines. Production capacity increases while the cost of inspection is reduced.
