Question & Answer with Assistant Manager Joo Dong-hwan of Nongshim Engineering.
The technology of Nongshim Engineering’s foreign substances inspection system has been drawing attention.
The vision inspection system developed and sold by Nongshim is automated visual inspection equipment using a camera. It is a system that can improve efficiency and provide objective and accurate quality control by automating the parts that were originally inspected manually with computer-based camera imaging technology. It can be applied to various fields, such as manufacturing date inspection, packing defect inspection, foreign substance inspection, omission inspection, and product recognition and classification.
X-RAY foreign substances inspection system is equipment that performs foreign substances inspection, defect inspection, and discriminative inspection with a specialized inspection algorithm by visualizing images that pass through products. The company develops and sells low-density foreign substances inspection systems that use near-infrared rays and terahertz to inspect the wavelength characteristics of foreign substances or material to be determined and complex inspection systems that combine these technologies as well.
The Market Trends for New Technologies are:
Inspection technologies using X-RAY are already generalizing. There are attempts to apply CT technology, hyperspectral analytic technology, and inspection technology using terahertz that are used for medical or general industries to the food field. However, price and technical aspects should be supplemented for commercialization.
The requirement to continue to grow as a global company is:
To grow as a global company in the inspection system market, differentiated technology and competitive pricing are needed, and we think the other important factor is the power of marketing and sales. No matter how good a product is, it is not sold unless the customer is aware of it. For these reasons, major markets need to promote localization and find influential and experienced agencies to cooperate.
Nongshim Engineering’s plans and goals for the future are:
Nongshim Engineering has been operating food and pharmaceutical business, plant business, energy business, automation business, factory construction, logistics system business, and inspection equipment business in 2015. The food sector in the inspection equipment business aims to generate 300 billion won in sales in 2015 by increasing the proportion of overseas sales and entering into the field of security and general industrial inspection.
