Core advantages of the exhibitionHaving been deeply involved in the South China market for 29 years and accumulating a massive number of local manufacturing enterprise resources, this exhibition is different from other domestic industrial exhibitions in that it focuses more onHigh cost-effective implementation planRather than simply showcasing cutting-edge concepts, it caters to the urgent need for automation cost reduction in small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises.
3、 Core Highlights of South China International Machine Vision and Industrial Applications Exhibition (Simultaneous Special Exhibition)
This year's Machine Vision Exhibition is jointly created by the organizer and the China Society of Image and Graphics, a national first-class society. It is the only professional exhibition in South China that focuses on industrial landing rather than consumer level vision. It focuses on the four core functions of industrial vision inspection, positioning, measurement, and recognition. The real exhibition content is as follows:
Layout of exhibits throughout the entire industry chainCovering core hardware upstream of vision (industrial cameras, industrial lenses, image acquisition cards, light sources), midstream vision software algorithms, downstream integrated vision inspection equipment and vision integration solutions, gathering domestic and foreign leading vision enterprises such as Daheng Image, Baoshina, Weishi, and Cognex to fill the gaps in the domestic vision supply chain display.
Realistic demonstration of landing sceneOn site construction of four real-life testing production lines for 3C screen defect detection, lithium electrode defect detection, automotive component size measurement, and logistics sorting visual recognition. All demonstration equipment is mass-produced and on sale models, with no concept prototypes, visually demonstrating the actual cost reduction efficiency of machine vision replacing manual quality inspection.
Contemporary authoritative academic conferencesOrganize the 3rd CSIG National Academic Exchange Conference on Visual Inspection Technology, focusing on three major industry pain points: high-precision detection of industrial vision, weak defect recognition, and complex reflective scene visual algorithms. Collaborate with university research teams and enterprise engineers to carry out industry university research docking and promote visual algorithms from laboratories to industrial production lines.
4、 Core content of the South China International Tailored Intelligence Exhibition (Frontier Characteristic Exhibition)
Following the industrial policy trend of the "Shenzhen Tailored Intelligence Action Plan", this exhibition has upgraded its dedicated exhibition area for embodied intelligence. It is a professional embodied intelligence exhibition in South China that focuses on industrial scenarios. Avoiding the gimmick of consumer grade humanoid robots, all exhibits focus on the actual production conditions of factories. The specific content is as follows:
Exhibits focus on practical industrial equipmentThe exhibition area showcases hardware products such as industrial humanoid robotic arms, dexterous hands, force controlled robots, and mobile composite robots, with a focus on demonstrating four major industrial scenarios: complex surface polishing and grinding, precision workpiece assembly, disordered material sorting, and human-machine collaboration on production lines. It showcases the full closed-loop capability of embodied intelligence from perception, decision-making to autonomous execution.
Full coverage display of supply chainGathering more than 90% of domestic embodied intelligence core localization supply chain enterprises, exhibiting core components such as servo joints, force control sensors, large model end side deployment modules, motion control algorithms, etc., facing the current core pain points of the embodied intelligence industry: cost reduction through localization, industrial scene adaptation, and lightweight deployment of end side large models.
