PAQi MoldView
Injection Molding Defect Inspection
MoldView is LM3 Technologies’ configurable vision toolkit for injection molding inspection, engineered to deploy directly at the press or downstream. Rather than a preconfigured product, MoldView serves as a flexible foundation that supports a wide range of deployment strategies—including robot-mounted camera systems, end-of-arm tooling with integrated vision, conveyor-based post-ejection inspection, or fixed camera stations adjacent to the press. Built on the robust PAQi platform, MoldView enables high-speed defect detection, part verification, and process feedback with tailored camera and lighting configurations. It empowers molders to catch defects immediately after ejection, prevent downstream waste, and adapt vision coverage to meet evolving production requirements.
High-Resolution Industrial Cameras
High-output, uniform lighting enables consistent illumination of clear or textured molded parts during inspection.

PAQi Controller Unit
Ruggedized inspection controller with real-time factory communication and native support for AI vision models.
Flexible Mounting
Customizable brackets and adjustable mounts ensure optimal imaging angles across press sizes and mold types.
Lighting
High-output, uniform lighting enables consistent illumination of clear or textured molded parts during inspection.
System Features
Thermal Imaging
Infrared thermal cameras detect hot spots, short shots, or flow issues immediately after part ejection from the mold cavity.
Technical Overview
System Capabilities
PAQi MoldView is a flexible inspection platform for molded parts, enabling robot-mounted, conveyor-based, or EOAT-integrated imaging to detect defects immediately after ejection. It reduces scrap and supports adaptable inspection strategies across molding operations.
