The benefits of automated inspection can be felt across many industries including:
- Medical and pharmaceutical
- Aerospace

- Textiles
- Sports apparel
There are multiple additional benefits of an industrial automation inspection system versus the outdated, manual process:
Improve quality
Manual inspection is prone to human error and labour intensive. It’s unreasonable to expect a machine inspector to identify 100% of defects a 100% of the time. When the process becomes automated you can ensure the highest levels of quality and consistency.
Increase business growth and improve your reputation
Shelton’s machine vision inspection systems not only identify faults but store data, which enables your company to plan and make informed decisions going forward. This can be used a tool for your sales team when trying to win business within a competitive marketplace.
Machine vision leads to greater ROI
Much like any new technology, there is an up-front investment. Shelton Vision has created an integrated machine vision process for fabric inspection that produces a return on investment through cut plan optimisation. In a nutshell, industrial automation leads to less waste, increases yield and therefore profit.
