EXPANSION AND MARKET ENTRY OPTIONS FOR INDUSTRIAL IMAGE PROCESSING

It is always a difficult decision for investors or companies whether to venture forward into new markets, either because the competition is already there or the domestic market is saturated. This applies to all industrial sectors, in particular to highly specialized ones, such as industrial image processing. This high-technology sector uses camera hardware and computer technologies to capture and evaluate pictures of production processes to achieve the following improvements:

  • Check mass produced goods automatically,
  • Achieve higher output,
  • Optimize or accelerate production processes and
  • Develop a measurable quality standard.

As diverse as the applications for production might be, the companies offering these industrial image processing products and services are just as diverse and versatile. Alongside some large market players, this extremely fragmented market is served by highly specialized, small and medium-sized companies. The vital expansion is, however, often barred by typical administrative risks, such as the unknown terrain, new competition, a permanent presence on site, as well as the cultural differences.
