machine vision and imaging web shoP oPens for business
S
corpion Vision has launched the industry’s biggest online marketplace for machine vision and imaging at
shop.scorpion.vision. The e-commerce site catalogues over
1,000 cameras and components, including lenses, machine vision light sources, specialist cables, industrial PCs, interface boards and software packages. This makes it the most comprehensive B2B web shop for cameras and accessories. Delivery is free on orders within the UK and many items – such as embedded cameras and M-12 lenses – are available for next day delivery. The site bridges a gap that exists for a
trusted platform which allows online transactions to be accompanied by specialist vision systems knowledge and advice. The site’s live chat facility means buyers can discuss any questions they might have with a Scorpion Vision imaging expert – allaying any fears about making costly purchasing mistakes. The site is also full of useful tips and recommendations for guiding users on which components to use. For example, buyers perusing C-Mount lenses can click through to a ‘Knowledge Base’ article on how to select a lens. In addition, the site features ‘lens selector’ and ‘camera selector’ facilities, which will match users with their perfect lens or camera by filtering search criteria.

Powelectrics becomes Powtechnology
R Paul Wilson, managing director at Scorpion
Vision, commented: “E-commerce has been slower to take off in B2B industries than in B2C markets. This is partly because purchases tend to be higher value and therefore require greater trust between buyer and seller, and also because buyers of industrial systems or components want to ask questions before they buy. We have been active in the imaging market for over 25 years, and are already known as the leading offline supplier of vision cameras and components. This is about using the trust and experience we have built up to create a first-of- its-kind e-commerce site that gives customers specialist knowledge at their fingertips.”

eflecting its broad IIoT solutions portfolio, Powelectrics has announced that it has changed its name to PowTechnology. Dave Oakes, CEO of the company,
commented: “PowTechnology was chosen because it better represents our capabilities as an organisation, whilst maintaining the ‘POW’ element of our name, as a link to over 30 years of company heritage. “‘Technology’ has been defined as ‘the
application of knowledge to reach practical goals in a specifiable and reproducible way’. “PowTechnology IIoT solutions make processes
smarter, enabling our customers to get data flowing rapidly as a first step towards their digital transformation and supporting them through to an international estate of connected assets. “The name PowTechnology encapsulates that,
incorporating our proprietary IoT devices and platform, IIoT solution design, manufacture, comprehensive testing and installation.” The name change will not affect the
company’s customers, suppliers or partners. Links into the Powelectrics website will divert automatically and emails will forward automatically until people are accustomed to the new @
powtechnology.com format. Customers using the MetronView IIoT portal will
not be affected. Just log in and use it as normal.
