Image Analysing Software AVS

An essential part and guarantor for the high performance of our inspection systems and the wide spectrum of application fields is the image analysing software from argus.

Depending on kind and complexity of the task formulation in your company we equip your tailor-made inspection system with the predestinated version for these special requirements.

Merits and features:

• 100 % developed by argus - thereby individually customizable (user interface, menus, data transfer etc.)
• a wide range of operators available
• easy configuration over graphical user interfaces
• comfortable logical handling without programming knowlegdes
• measurement starts automatically with the latest configuration
• changes between different configurations (inspection tasks) at touch of a button
• supports process statistics
• supports audit trail according to 21 CFR part 11 for the pharmaceutical industry
• supports data base functions and external data bases
• includes network functionality
• allows remote maintenance
• allows flexible assignment of user-rights
