Wintriss Engineering designs, develops and manufactures advanced cameras and vision systems for web inspection and machine vision applications. Our Web Ranger continuous web inspection smart linescan camera systems are the most precise surface flaw detection and inspection systems available for nonwovens, paper, textiles, film, foil, plastics, metals, glass and coatings. Having developed our first smart camera in 1994, Wintriss is a pioneer in embedding image processing intelligence in digital cameras. We have created increasingly capable cameras with faster processing speed, higher resolution, and flexibility. These cameras are specifically created for surface inspection, with both continuous web and discrete piece-by-piece applications.

Our design hallmark is a powerful field-programmable gate array in a high resolution camera which hosts a real time image processing capability. Additional on-board processing using a general purpose CPU and real time operating system simplifies overall system architectures, streamlines camera-to-host communications, facilitates system scalability, enhances reliability, and reduces system cost.

Wintriss Engineering's flagship product is the Web Ranger™ System which employs the linear scan cameras in a networked, distributed architecture. Our core competency is the in-depth understanding of optics, lighting, and image processing. This expertise and our extensive surface inspection experience enable the company to conceive and implement innovative designs to meet diverse customer requirements for surface inspection. Patents in image processing and illumination technology are the basis for the exceptional defect detection and classification performance of the Web Ranger™ System and Wintriss' market leadership in the inspection of optical films.
