VISION-ALIGNED PUNCHING
Vision-aligned punching systems
Machine vision locates the actual registration mark before punching, helping compensate for print offset and material movement in FPC, PI, PET, ITO, film and continuous web materials.

The system measures the workpiece rather than relying only on a fixed fixture position. Camera, lighting, material restraint and punching motion are evaluated together against the required tolerance and cycle time.
APPLICATIONS
Applicable workpieces and processes
These are common applications. Material behaviour, imaging and the acceptance method must be validated with the actual workpiece.
- ✓FPC and flexible circuits
- ✓PI, PET, ITO and functional films
- ✓Copper foil and printed film
- ✓Sheet-fed or roll-to-roll punching

FAQ
Questions about Vision-aligned punching systems
Can a project be evaluated before every specification is final?＋
Yes. A preliminary review can start with samples and images, but tolerance, cycle time and acceptance methods must be defined before final machine confirmation.
Does published punching speed equal line output?＋
Not necessarily. Hole count, travel path, loading, unloading, material handling and changeover time must be included in the full-cycle estimate.
