VisionGuide
See what is on the line. Know where it is. Let your robot act autonomously.
VisionGuide gives robots real-time insight into the production flow, allowing them to adapt to changing part positions for more flexible and seamless finishing automation.
The challenge
Parts do not always arrive as expected. They can be different, missing, misplaced or rotated. VisionGuide detects these variations, enabling your robot to adapt its actions and execute the right program for every part.
Different parts
Missing parts
Position offset
Wrong orientation
Product
PACKAGE 01
Know what is on the line
PACKAGE 02
Know where and how the parts are positioned
Detect + position bundle
Run Part & Position Detection on the same VisionGuide hardware, at a lower combined price than buying each package separately.
Why 4D vision
VisionGuide combines 3D spatial information with movement over time. Instead of relying on a single snapshot, it captures multiple 3D views as the part moves through the scanning area.

Key Benefits
A standardized, robust VisionGuide system, designed for easy deployment and consistent quality. A repeatable solution that reduces the complexity and uncertainty of custom-engineered automation projects.
VisionGuide seamlessly integrates with RoboTwin and RoboTeach, bringing 4D scanning into the workflow for precise robot program execution and seamless automation.
VisionGuide enables autonomous robot program drafting in pilot mode as parts are scanned on the conveyor, preparing programs for the robot to process each part before it reaches the robot cell.

VisionGuide + RoboTwin
VisionGuide detects parts and their positions on the production line. RoboTwin provides no-code robot teaching. Together, they connect the actual parts on the line with the robot process, enabling flexible, automated production — from single parts to large batches.
FAQ
VisionGuide is a 4D scanning solution for automated part and position detection in industrial finishing, including powder coating and wet painting. It identifies parts and their positions on the production line, enabling robots to select and adapt programs to the actual parts moving along the conveyor.
VisionGuide Detect identifies parts on the line, distinguishes expected from unexpected or missing parts, and selects the corresponding robot program. VisionGuide Position detects the actual 3D position and orientation of parts, compares them with nominal positions, and enables the robot to adapt program execution to the part’s real position and orientation.
Yes, VisionGuide Detect and VisionGuide Position use the same VisionGuide scanning station but offer different software capabilities. Both packages can also be combined to enable part detection and position detection within one system.
Yes, VisionGuide can be integrated into existing industrial finishing lines, including moving conveyor systems and production environments with PLCs and MES. It connects detection and position data to existing workflows, allowing robots to respond to actual part conditions.
Yes, VisionGuide integrates with RoboTwin and RoboTeach, combining part and position detection with no-code robot teaching. Together, they connect the actual parts on the production line with robot programs to support flexible, automated finishing production.
