About VMT Vision Systems
VMT Vision Machine Technic Bildverarbeitungssysteme GmbH, headquartered in Mannheim, has been developing and manufacturing turn-key machine vision systems for industrial production since 1995. The portfolio includes robot vision for robot guidance, inline inspection systems for quality assurance, multi-sensor and laser sensor systems as well as ready-to-integrate products (RTI) such as VMT BeadMap RTI for 3D inspection of adhesive and sealant beads. Both the hardware and software platforms are developed in-house, allowing applications to be covered individually rather than via standard cases. Key areas of application are the automotive industry (five production areas with dozens of stations), the life science sector with GxP-compliant quality assurance, and battery manufacturing. As the Vision Competence Center of the Pepperl+Fuchs Group, VMT realizes around 200 projects per year; more than 10,000 systems are in production use. No further locations besides the headquarters in Mannheim are known.

Processes and Technologies
Turn-key machine vision systems
Custom machine vision systems for industrial testing and inspection tasks in series production.
Robot vision / robot guidance
Camera-based guidance of robots for positioning, handling and process flow.
Inline inspection
Real-time quality assurance directly in the production line, before defects become scrap.
Multi-sensor and laser sensor systems
Combination of different sensor principles for inspections that cannot be solved with a single technology.
Ready-to-integrate products (RTI)
Pre-fabricated systems such as VMT BeadMap RTI that can be integrated quickly without extensive engineering effort.
3D inspection of adhesive and sealant beads
First ready-to-integrate product deployment for full-surface 3D inspection of adhesive and sealant edges.
