SEPTEMBER 3--Tattile, a manufacturer of innovative machine-vision systems and cameras, has announced the strategic partnership of its subsidiary company AVD Tattile Limited with Mnemonics Inc. (Mt. Laurel, NJ; www.mnemonicsinc.com). The partnership has been established to promote the Mnemonics AVIA (automated visual information analysis) leaflet-inspection system in Europe and to port the functionality of the AVIA software onto intelligent devices for on-line total label inspection.
Mnemonics brings to the partnership its AVIA system for full text and graphics verification on printed media up to 122 x 92 cm in size. This technology is gaining broad acceptance in the pharmaceutical and related industries for verification of product leaflets and labels. AVD Tattile will act as the European distributor for the AVIA product, building on its pharmaceutical experience in Ireland and Tattile Group's experience in the European pharmaceutical industry.
In addition, Mnemonics and AVD Tattile are working together to port the AVIA software onto Tattile intelligent cameras for on-line total inspection of pharmaceutical labels. This will provide a solution for those customers wanting to go beyond batch and date inspection to full text and graphics inspection--a long expressed wish by many industries, but with no reasonably priced solution to date.
Mnemonics Inc., founded in 1979, designs and develops machine-vision software solutions. Markets for its products include semiconductor and microelectronics, biometrics, glass, medical, metals, pharmaceutical, plastics, printing, and security. All Mnemonics software is designed to be hardware independent and to be easily ported to any computer platform.
AVD Tattile Limited joined the Tattile Group in 2003. AVD Tattile is a provider of automated optical inspection systems to regulated industries in Europe and an expert in 21 CFR Part 11-compliant solutions required by pharmaceutical and medical-device industries.
