Photoneo – Machine Vision for Modern Manufacturing
Photoneo is one of the world’s leading companies in 3D machine vision and robotic automation. As a certified Photoneo integrator, we deliver solutions to European manufacturing plants that enhance process accuracy, speed, and reliability. Photoneo 3D Vision technology enables robots to “see” in space and respond to real environments with sub-millimeter precision.

⚙️Photoneo 3D Machine Vision Technology
PhoXi 3D Scanner
A precise 3D scanner designed for static applications where it is necessary to obtain a detailed three-dimensional model of an object with high accuracy. It is used for quality inspection, dimensional measurement, and comparison with a CAD model. Structured light technology captures the object’s geometry with a resolution of up to 3.2 Mpx. Different model sizes (XS – XL) allow optimization of the scanning range — from small components to large products.
MotionCam-3D
The world’s first 3D camera capable of capturing full-fidelity 3D data even while objects are in motion. Its patented Parallel Structured Light technology ensures sharp, blur-free images even in fast processes. An ideal solution for robotic guidance, in-motion inspection, and product sorting. It stands out with sub-millimeter accuracy and high-speed real-time 3D data processing.
Bin Picking Studio
A software platform designed for automated robot guidance when handling randomly placed parts in a bin. It uses a 3D camera to detect the shape and position of objects and generates precise coordinates for gripping. It enables quick setup, offline simulation, and easy integration with robots from ABB, KUKA, or Fanuc. It speeds up system commissioning and increases the productivity of material handling processes.
Solution Example – ZF Slovakia
As an example of our integration, we present a project for ZF Slovakia, a.s., where a complete bin picking system was implemented using Photoneo technology. The video demonstrates the process from 3D scanning of parts and spatial localization to automated robotic handling.
🤖 Applications in Robotics and Automation
Photoneo solutions are applied across a wide range of industrial sectors:
-
Automotive – robotic guidance, bin picking, assembly,
-
Logistics and E-commerce – sorting, packaging, depalletizing,

Why Partner with DesignMP
As a certified Photoneo integrator, we offer comprehensive solutions in the field of 3D machine vision and robotic automation. Our goal is to deliver technologies that enhance the productivity, accuracy, and safety of manufacturing processes. We work directly with Photoneo engineers, allowing us to tailor each solution to the specific requirements of every customer.
Our experience with the integration of PhoXi 3D Scanner, MotionCam-3D, and Bin Picking Studio systems enables us to carry out projects from the initial design phase all the way to full commissioning. We provide not only the installation of hardware and software but also operator training and long-term technical support.
Thanks to close cooperation with partners such as ABB, B&R, and Siemens, we are able to integrate individual components into a unified and reliable system. Our solutions help companies minimize errors, reduce labor costs, and accelerate production — all without compromising quality.
Design, manufacturing, and integration are carried out entirely in-house at DesignMP, meaning the customer has a single partner for the entire process — from initial consultation to the finished equipment. Each project is thoroughly tested and fine-tuned at our facility to ensure the system is ready for immediate deployment in real production.
Our added value lies in flexibility and customization — we can create a prototype, a small workstation, or a fully automated production line. For every project, we place strong emphasis on ergonomics, safety, and user-friendly operation.
