AUTOMATE YOUR WELD INSPECTION

Every weld that leaves your plant was judged by whoever was looking at it that shift. An automated inspection system makes that call the same way every time, so a bad part gets caught at your facility instead of your customer’s.
Mission builds weld inspection systems around your parts and your defects. With localized AI deep learning, data tracking, and part pass/fail history, you can teach your system to quickly recognize unique defects and sort welded parts with precision.
At IMTS 2026, we'll be showcasing weld inspection automation that features technologies from:
- Deep Learning Vision System from Unit X
- PhoXi 3D Scanner Gen3 from Photoneo
- LJ-S040 3D Laser Sensor from Keyence
- NEX10 Robot from Yaskawa Motoman
- E30 Smart Tool from Magswitch
Connect with Mission to learn how we can help implement more efficient, accurate weld inspections into your processes.
PROGRAM YOUR OWN DISPENSE PATHS IN REAL TIME
Dispense Buddy, the dispense solution of The Buddy System series from Mission Design & Automation, will be at IMTS 2026! The demo—which will feature an Adhesive Mix Monitor system from 3M, the ViscoTec preeflow eco-DUO450, and a FANUC CRX-10—will simulate 2-component dispense path creation and execution.
Watch the video below to hear Todd McIntosh, Service Robotics and Senior Mechanical Engineer at Mission, explain how the 3M Adhesive Mix Monitor works on The Buddy System.
