The collaboration with Prey by Detech introduces the Universal Product Inspector (UPI) as the latest equipment development to further strengthen GPS Technologies’ position in the market. The UPI leverages years of vision and software expertise to provide a cost-effective, versatile visual inspection system.

“The Prey UPI is a game-changer in the realm of automated final product inspection. We are excited to bring this cutting-edge technology to our customers, offering them a universal solution that is user-friendly, accurate, flexible, and repeatable across diverse industries,” said Andreas Gerspach, General Manager at GPS Technologies GmbH.

The UPI addresses a longstanding challenge in the industry by automating the final inspection process, which has traditionally relied on human operators. This versatile system finds application in various industrial sectors where consistent and high-quality final product assessment is crucial. The UPI can inspect a wide range of items, examining both sides of an assembly in less than 4 seconds. Additionally, it is designed to identify missed/damaged connector pins, barcode and label placement, scratches, lead connections, and several other tasks that are currently manually inspected.

GPS Technologies remains committed to providing future-oriented process solutions for electronics manufacturing, focusing on scalability, flexibility, and ease of integration. The addition of the Prey UPI to its product lineup further strengthens the company’s dedication to helping businesses increase productivity, reduce costs, lower energy consumption, and enhance overall safety.

Prey By Detech is a British designed and manufactured product line. Based in Yorkshire, England, the company has been involved in producing inspection technologies for many years, which has led to the development of the Universal Product Inspector (UPI). The company has its own software, design, and manufacturing, resulting in fast reactions to customer requirements. The Prey UPI will soon be available as an inline for customers needing this high-volume capability. The platform also allows itself for customization to fulfil customer requirements.
