SensoPart wins Automation Award
The SME manufacturer of sensors and intelligent camera systems for factory automation SensoPart Industriesensorik wins the Automation Award from Konradin Verlag in the category „Standard Components & Sensors“. The visitors of the International Trade Fair sps ipc drives 2014 in Nuremberg ranked the vision sensor VISOR^® first.
Before, a jury consisting of the congress comitee of sps ipc drives, VDMA, ZVEI and the editorial department of the trade magazin „elektro AUTOMATION“ had nominated the socalled „BLOB“ function of SensoPart’s VISOR^® vision sensor together with four other products for the Automation Award. During sps ipc drives 2014 in Nuremberg, the nominated products were presented to the professional audience who then voted for their favourite.

ision Sensors are industry-oriented intelligent cameras, which evaluate objects, e.g. in respect of their presence, shape or colour and are used, among others, in production lines. The innovative „BLOB“ (Binary Large Object) function of VISOR^® allows to differentiate whether parts – e.g. on a conveyor belt – are face up or face down. With this feature, VISOR® is currently unique on the market.
According to Konradin Verlag, the Automation Award is the most important prize in the automation sector. It is awarded to new and innovative products in the categories „Process Control & System Solutions“ and „Standard Components & Sensors“. In December 2014, SensoPart received the prize and the certificate at the awards ceremony in Leinfelden-Echterdingen.
