MVTec Presents Advantages of Machine Vision for Battery Production
May 16, 2025 | MVTecEstimated reading time: 1 minute
MVTec Software GmbH, a leading international manufacturer of machine vision software, will once again demonstrate the added value of machine vision for battery production at this year's Battery Show Europe in Stuttgart. Visitors are invited to learn more about the benefits and applications of MVTec's software products at booth G20 in hall 6 from June 3 to 5, 2025.
The MVTec product portfolio includes MVTec HALCON, the comprehensive standard software for machine vision, MVTec MERLIC, the low-code software that enables even beginners to create complete and powerful machine vision applications, and the Deep Learning Tool, with which images can be easily labeled and thus optimally prepared for the deep learning methods of HALCON and MERLIC. MVTec's hardware-independent software solutions can be used to solve demanding inspection and automation tasks along the value chain of battery cell production - from electrode production to cell assembly and end-of-line testing.
At the booth, MVTec experts will present practical applications from battery cell production, such as the detection of coating defects, the precise measurement of battery cells, and the tracking of individual cells and modules using data code reading for traceability systems. They will also demonstrate how machine vision can be seamlessly combined with robotic systems.

Elementary, Mr. Watson: Rein in Your Design Constraints
07/10/2025 | John Watson -- Column: Elementary, Mr. WatsonI remember the long hours spent at the light table, carefully laying down black tape to shape each trace, cutting and aligning pads with surgical precision on sheets of Mylar. I often went home with nicks on my fingers from the X-Acto knives and bits of tape all over me. It was as much an art form as it was an engineering task—tactile and methodical, requiring the patience of a sculptor. A lot has changed in PCB design over the years.
Stop Using Spreadsheets—and You Can Quote Me on That
07/03/2025 | Nolan Johnson, SMT007 MagazineMeeting changing business needs and a thriving market sometimes means process efficiencies. Not all those efficiency improvements take place on the shop floor, however. For EMS companies, growth can also mean changing out the business operations software to have one more chance to close a business deal that better aligns with the company’s sweet spot. One of the pressing issues for EMS companies is the great deal of attention on sales and quoting software solutions and how to make them perform better. Chintan Sutaria, the founder and former CEO of CalcuQuote now working on other projects at OpenJar, explains.
IPC-CFX, 2.0: How to Use the QPL Effectively
07/02/2025 | Chris Jorgensen, Global Electronics AssociationIn part one of this series, we discussed the new features in CFX Version 2.0 and their implications for improved inter-machine communication. But what about bringing this new functionality to the shop floor? The IPC-CFX-2591 QPL is a powerful technical resource for manufacturers seeking CFX-enabled equipment. The Qualified Product List (QPL) helps streamline equipment selection by listing models verified for CFX compliance through a robust third-party virtual qualification process.
