Based in Newbury, Berkshire, we specialise in machine vision components, optical detectors, laser products and thermal imaging, with access to over 1000 products from our network of over 80 trusted global partners.


Our experienced and knowledgeable staff have extensive applications experience in the fields of machine vision, industrial imaging, photonics, electronics, and automation. With the support of world-class suppliers and cutting-edge technology, we help customers improve automation, productivity, and quality.


Our imaging technology operates in a wide spectrum from ultraviolet through visible to infrared and thermal wavelengths, and some of the latest technology and products we are supplying to the machine vision market include ground-breaking video rate hyperspectral cameras.


Process and packaging applications in the food and pharmaceutical industry are using new low plastics solutions involving recyclable fibre products and biodegradable hot melt glue – thermal inspection is increasingly used to monitor and maintain QA levels in this area. We also supply thermal camera technology for plant maintenance, fire safety and also for the medical, research and scientific sectors.
