A Journey of Innovation
The story of FLOWD is one of relentless innovation and a commitment to solving complex challenges across various domains. It all began over two decades ago, driven by a deep-seated desire to prioritize the safety and well-being of individuals in critical situations. Through the years, FLOWD has undergone over three design modifications, yet all designs remain operable and continue to serve our valued customers, reflecting our unwavering dedication to providing enduring solutions.
X-ray Apparel Inspection
The journey started with a focus on the medical field. Medical professionals, along with the patients they serve, have always been at the heart of our mission. After engaging in extensive discussions with radiology experts, a pressing concern emerged: the quality checks of X-ray personal protective equipment (X-Ray PPE) were far from optimal.
X-ray protective clothing plays a pivotal role in reducing radiation exposure for both healthcare workers and patients during medical procedures. However, the regular wear and tear of these protective garments can compromise their efficacy. Existing inspection methods were imperfect and often unable to identify damaged areas, putting users at risk.
Driven by this challenge, we embarked on a journey to develop a solution that would ensure the highest standards of safety for medical professionals and patients. The result was FLOWD for X-ray Apparel Inspection, a groundbreaking technology equipped with a unique algorithm that evaluates the actual condition of X-ray protective properties. This innovation brought a new level of precision and safety to the medical field, making it possible to identify weakened areas with unparalleled accuracy.
Prison Mattresses Inspection
As we continued our mission to enhance safety in critical environments, our path led us to correctional facilities. The dedicated officers working within prison walls face unique challenges in maintaining security, including the detection of hidden contraband concealed within prison mattresses and personal belongings of the inmates.
Recognizing the significance of this task, we expanded our capabilities to develop FLOWD M (previously BV M.A.X.) for Prison Mattresses Inspection. This cutting-edge solution offers a non-contact, high-precision inspection system that assists prison officers in their vital duty to ensure the safety and security of both staff and inmates. The advanced scanning technology of FLOWD M detects concealed threats, providing invaluable support for maintaining order within correctional facilities.
Car Door Panels Inspection
Our journey of innovation extends to the heart of the vehicle manufacturing industry, where precision and excellence are paramount. In this realm, ensuring the highest standards and quality control is a daily pursuit.
Car door panels, with their intricate mechanisms and concealed spaces, present a unique challenge for vehicle manufacturers. Small hardware components, like nuts and bolts, can occasionally go missing during assembly, potentially leading to operational issues or, at the very least, quality concerns.
Understanding the critical importance of maintaining excellence in the vehicle manufacturing process, we developed FLOWD D for inline and/or standalone Car Door Panels Inspection. This remarkable technology was conceived to assist vehicle manufacturers in their quest for uncompromising quality.
Our device employs advanced scanning techniques, providing a non-invasive solution for inspecting sealed car door panels. By utilizing FLOWD D, manufacturers can detect and locate lost small hardware components with unparalleled accuracy. This innovative approach ensures that every vehicle leaving the production line meets the highest standards of quality and safety, minimizing operational risks and upholding the reputation of excellence in the automotive industry.
The FLOWD series stands as a testament to our dedication to crafting versatile solutions that address critical needs across various industries. It reflects our commitment to enabling precision and quality in every facet of our lives. Join us at the forefront of NDT technology and experience the future of inspections with FLOWD. Your pursuit of excellence is our driving force, and FLOWD is here to empower it.
