The Vision Box AGE-X6 is a modular platform for industrial and AI image processing designed for robust, continuous operation and scalable performance through modular expansions.
DescriptionThe AGE-X6 is a compact, passively cooled industrial PC (IPC) platform that integrates classical image processing and AI workflows in a single housing. It supports open software architectures and allows performance scaling via modular external expansions without changing the base system.
Benefits- Modularity: GPU performance and interfaces can be expanded via USB4 ports, enabling upgrades without replacing the base system.
- Scalable vision & AI compute: Configurable CPU options (Intel® 14th Gen) and support for external GPUs to match application needs.
- Real-time synchronization: Integrated Real Time Communication Controller (RTCC) for precise camera, lighting, I/O and conveyor timing.
- Maintenance-free 24/7 operation: Fanless, compact design for continuous use in harsh industrial environments.
- Versatile interfaces: USB4 backbone for GPUs, high-speed storage and cameras, plus standard industrial I/Os, network interfaces and encoder ports.
ApplicationsThe AGE-X6 is suited for demanding, synchronized and scalable vision tasks. Typical use cases include multi-camera systems, track & trace, synchronized inspection and high-speed real-time analysis.
- Pharmaceuticals – adjust performance via modular GPU expansion without full re-certification.
- Food & Beverage – parallel processing of multiple image sources for foreign object detection, label inspection and code verification.
- Webbed materials – inspection of reflective or moving web materials using high CPU/GPU performance and RTCC synchronization.
- Packaging & Logistics – multicode recognition on pallets and high-resolution data processing for efficient logistics.
- Printing – real-time monitoring of color, register and print quality using CPU/GPU combinations.
Target groupMachine builders, system integrators and series machine manufacturers needing a flexible, high-compute platform for Windows or Linux environments. The unified housing, software and cabling simplify multi-system deployments while performance scales where required.
