Axtel produces Machine Vision based systems, also referred to as Automated Optical Inspection Systems (AOI), for the automation of Quality Assurance in industrial manufacturing processes. Some of our systems are custom built to suit the specific needs of a single customer. Other systems are off the shelf products, they may address the needs of an entire industry.

The A1_Inspector is our most popular off the shelf product; it is used when populating Printed Circuit Boards.The A1_Inspector is a bench-top system; it is most suitable for manufacturers with short production runs and frequent line changes.

This system provides AOI technology at a fraction of the typical cost. Users of the A1_Inspector may verify or raise their quality standard, improve their standing with their customers, and they may save money in the process. The A1_Inspector is known to amortize itself within a few months.
