Applied Vision partners with Omnitech International

MAY 1, 2008--Applied Vision Corp. (AVC; Akron, OH, USA; www.appliedvision.com), a provider of machine-vision inspection systems for the container-manufacturing industry, has partnered with Denver, CO-based Omnitech International to bring AVC's full range inspection systems and support services to Omnitech's new MICROFLEX lines. The MICROFLEX lines are designed for customers that require small annual production volumes and quick, cost-efficient changeovers to make containers of various sizes and specifications--including aerosol cans, beverage cans, bottle cans, and food cans. MICROFLEX will exclusively feature AVC inspection systems.

MICROFLEX will showcase the versatility of Genius and KromaKing systems as an integral part of manufacturing lines intended to adapt quickly, allow scalability, and minimize downtime. Omnitech's complete standardization of MICROFLEX lines lowers customer costs for equipment, eases installation, maximizes plant space, and reduces downtime for changeovers. Manufacturers at all levels of expertise can use MICROFLEX to manufacture high-quality two-piece cans at the volume level of a three-piece can.
