FAQ
Questions? We’ve got answers.
What will Headwall demonstrate at VISION 2026?
Headwall shows live application cases at VISION 2026 in Hall 10, Booth D23 — including PCB coating verification, food and food packaging, and recycling and material sorting. These are examples rather than limits: hyperspectral and inductive sensing apply across many more industrial processes, from agriculture and mining to pharmaceutical manufacturing and infrastructure inspection. The demo program may be adjusted before the event.
How does the daily demo rotation work?
The demo program rotates daily across October 6, 7, and 8, 2026, and no case is tied to a fixed day. Naming your application when you book helps the Headwall team plan the schedule, though a specific demonstration cannot be guaranteed for a specific time slot. Booking early and staying flexible on timing improves the chances considerably.
Who should book a meeting?
A VISION meeting is useful for anyone evaluating material-level inspection, sorting, or process monitoring: quality and production managers, process and automation engineers, R&D teams, and OEM machine builders. No prior hyperspectral experience is required. The conversation starts with the decision your process needs to make — not with the camera.
Can I bring a sample or application question?
Yes. Describing your material challenge when you book helps the Headwall team prepare the most relevant demonstration and the right application expert. If you would like to discuss a physical sample at Hall 10, Booth D23, mention it in your booking request so the team can confirm what is possible on site.
Where is the Headwall booth?
Headwall is located in Hall 10, Booth D23 at Messe Stuttgart during VISION 2026, October 6–8, 2026. The corner stand offers dedicated areas for live demonstrations and for private conversations with application experts. You can also find Headwall in the official VISION exhibitor index and in the VISION Stuttgart 2026 app, which includes hall plans and your personal itinerary.
How long is the meeting?
Each meeting lasts 20 minutes at Hall 10, Booth D23, with all times shown in CEST. That is enough time to discuss your material challenge, see a relevant live demonstration, and explore feasibility and integration. Slots per day are limited and confirmed by email — please book a time you can keep so the schedule stays available for others with a genuine interest.
What is Headwall Industrial Intelligence?
Headwall Industrial Intelligence combines spectral and inductive sensing, software, and application expertise to turn material signals into industrial decisions. Where conventional machine vision captures appearance, Headwall reveals composition, quality, and material variability — enabling real-time inspection, sorting, and process monitoring. Headwall has integrated nearly 5,000 industrial solutions worldwide.
What if I am not attending VISION?
Selected Headwall resources are available directly on this page, including the PCB coating feasibility study and further technical articles on material-level inspection. If you would like to speak with an application expert outside the trade fair, a remote meeting can be arranged — just get in touch with the Headwall team. Evaluating at your own pace is a valid path.
