POSTED 08/31/2011
VANCOUVER, CANADA -- LMI Technologies, a global industry leader in 3D laser measurement and control sensor technology, today announced a distribution agreement with INFAIMON Group for Gocator 3D smart sensors in Spain, Portugal, Mexico, and Brazil. Original equipment manufacturers and factories in these key demographic regions will now have access to LMI Technologies’ Gocator family of robust, easy to use, 3D laser measurement sensors for factory automation.
Gocator laser line smart sensors are all-in-one solutions that make 3D measurement and control for factory automation accessible to all levels of expertise. Through Gocator’s built-in web tools, users can easily perform inline part inspection for 100% quality control, communicate results (either directly or to a PLC), as well as make sorting and tracking decisions. Gocators fit a large range of applications as fully functional standalone sensors, or when combined to create powerful multi-Gocator systems.
“Latin America’s evolving and growing manufacturing industry presents an excellent revenue opportunity for LMI Technologies and INFAIMON,” said Kevin Brown, Director of Salesat LMI. “We are excited to develop a strong market presence for Gocator sensors in Spain, Portugal, and Latin America. Gocator sensors are a great fit with INFAIMON’s existing product mix and we can’t think of a better distribution partner to help us open the door to these key markets.”
"The current machine vision market demands more sophisticated and easy-to-use hardware and software tools that can work in different applications,” commented INFAIMON Group’s CEO, Salvador Giró. We see a growing shift in focus towards 3D product solutions and the strengths of Gocator in addition to a well-proven track record with 3D products made the decision to work with LMI Technologies an easy one. There is significant potential for Gocator in the markets we already serve.”
To assist the deployment of Gocator sensors to the world’s seventh largest economy, INFAIMON Group opened a new office in Brazil based on this distribution agreement. With initial interest in Gocator projected to be brisk, comprehensive training and sales support has been provided by LMI Technologies to INFAIMON. Information on Gocator sensors is now available in Spanish and Portugese on INFAIMON’s corporate website at www.infaimon.com.
