Edmund Optics™ Creates VIP Team to Provide Complete Onsite Vision Solutions

August 15, 2005, Barrington, NJ – Edmund Optics™ has teamed up with Epic Vision Systems, Braas Company, Minarik Corporation, Wineman Technology Incorporated and other system integrators to help customers solve their machine vision problems. Termed  Vision Integration Partners (VIP), the team provides convenient onsite vision system integration services anywhere in the world.

Customers can contact the VIP team through Edmund Optics’ regular sales force (visit www.edmundoptics.com for local sales contact information). VIP assigns locally headquartered automation specialists from team companies to help customers evaluate their specific needs and develop a customized vision solution. Edmund Optics™ vision engineers then review the plan to ensure that the components selected meet all of the customer’s expectations at the right price. This combination of Edmund Optics’™ vast machine-vision component offerings and the onsite system integration experience of VIP team members assures customers that they will no longer have to compromise between optical performance and local integration.

‘‘Edmund Optics has played an important role in designing a number of our machine vision systems,’‘ says Kim Linder, PhD of Honeywell Federal Manufacturing and Technologies. ‘‘I have been able to take advantage of their knowledge and experience with the vast array of ever changing products in the optical field to aid me in my system design. I have, on occasion, shipped them an item I will be imaging and received images under different camera, lens and illumination configurations BEFORE I purchased anything.’‘
