October 7, 2006 Siemens Vision
On October 3, 2005, Siemens Energy and Automation, Inc. completed the acquisition of the assets of RVSI Acuity CiMatrix, a division of Robotic Visions Systems, Inc. headquartered in Nashua, New Hampshire. Some background on RVSI Acuity CIMatrix... Acuity CiMatrix helped pioneer the machine vision industry and today remains one of its prime technological leaders. They are also the worlds leading authority on and proponent of machine-vision-based unit-level traceability achieved through direct parts marking. As the inventor of Data Matrix, the 2-D code symbology best suited to direct parts marking, Acuity CiMatrix stands alone as the organization best able to help customers understand how to mark products; provide the hardware and software to verify that marks are readable; supply the proper machine vision imager to decode marks under all conditions; and help you communicate and organize the data stored in Data Matrix marks. How does this relate to Flagship Automation? On October 1, 2006, Flagship Automation was named one of the first distributors to support and distribute the RVSI Acuity CIMatrix line of products. Special training was conducted for Flagship Automation personnel by specialists from Siemens on the topics of UID, Data Matrix and Machine Vision. Since Flagship Automation has been named a distributor, there have been a host of training and events focused on the newly acquired products and the solutions they offer to New England's manufacturers.
