01
Turnkey machines
Robust, deterministic systems delivered from pre-project advice through automation, electrical integration, mechanical build, programming, line implementation and continued support.
Services
Services built around real production problems.
MCM Systems supplies turnkey machines, custom vision and test modules, quality-control vision systems and industrial testers for production lines. The team supports the project from technical advice through integration and continued after-sales support.
How MCM can supply the project
From a focused module to a complete turnkey machine.
The supply model is chosen around the customer’s engineering capacity, the existing machine and the level of responsibility required from MCM.
02
Vision, test and measurement modules
A focused machine-vision or industrial-test module supplied to machine builders or production-line integrators who need MCM’s core expertise inside a wider project.
03
Vision systems
Quality-control systems that combine acquisition, lighting, image processing, decision logic and line communication to inspect products consistently.
04
Industrial testers
Automatic test and measurement systems for electrical and electronic production, including controlled sequences, logs, statistics, maintenance tools, access control and self-test functions.
Dedicated engineering systems
From needs survey to an implemented industrial solution.
MCM's documented approach includes the full project pipeline for special customer requirements: understanding the need, developing the concept, prototyping, implementation and, where applicable, industrial production of the final solution.
For industrial testers, the electrical and mechanical parts can be developed around the customer specification together with validated data, reports and statistics. Remote assistance and continued technical support can be part of the delivered system.
Service families
Six technical capabilities used across MCM’s real projects.
The capabilities below can be delivered as a focused module, integrated into an existing machine or combined into a complete turnkey system.

Compare capabilities
Which MCM route fits the production requirement?
The final architecture can combine several capabilities, but this table gives engineering and quality teams a practical starting point.
| Capability | Best for | Typical checks | Typical mode |
|---|---|---|---|
| Machine Vision | Visible product features and defects | Presence, position, surface, print, OCR, colour | Inline or off-line |
| Functional Test | Products that must electrically or mechanically work | Signals, communication, leak, light, movement | Test station / line cell |
| PCB Test Tables | Electronic boards and assemblies | Continuity, I/O, power, communication, sequences | Dedicated fixture |
| Packaging Inspection | Corrugated board and converting quality | Glue, print, dimensions, codes, curvature, process defects | Inline and off-line |
Packaging products
Products developed for recurring corrugated-board quality needs.
Check Inversion, Industrial Scanner and Creasy Checker began from practical converting and quality-control needs. Each delivery is configured around the customer’s board, machine and production data.
01
Check Inversion
Detect and segregate inverted boards using pattern, registration or crease references.
02
Creasy Checker
Measure crease width and depth precisely to identify irregularities.
03
Industrial Scanner
Compare print colour and fit, dimensions and cuts with a stored reference.
04
Universal Tester
Create and control test sequences for electrical or electronic products, with statistics and instrumentation integration.
05
Andon Boards
Display production status and field variables through factory monitors, computers or mobile devices.
Field engineering
Engineering does not stop when the machine leaves the workshop.
MCM supports installation, commissioning and validation in the customer production environment. The team adapts mechanics, sensing, I/O and software to the real machine interfaces and verifies the system with production parts before handover.
That field work is especially important on retrofit projects, where access, existing safety systems, line timing and production constraints can only be fully validated on the actual equipment.
Custom systems
Examples of custom systems MCM builds most often.
01
Light guide optical inspection
Controlled optical inspection for moulded plastic light guides, detecting internal defects that disturb the expected light transmission.
Controlled illumination · optical inspection · pass/fail View case solution →02
PCB tester table
Tests PCB behaviour using a dedicated fixture, signal injection and output measurement with repeatable pass/fail logic.
Needle-bed · signal injection · output validation View case solution →03
Blinds dimensional inspection
Laser-based dimensional control for finished blinds, reducing manual measurement time and checking geometry consistently.

How MCM works
From your production challenge to a running system.
01
Understand
MCM studies the product, defect samples, test requirements, line speed and traceability needs.
02
Specify
The team defines the camera, lighting, sensors, jig, electrical cabinet, software and safety requirements.
03
Build
The workstation is built with mechanical, electrical, software and production expertise.
04
Validate
The system is tested with real products before commissioning. Typical custom project timing is around four months.
05
Support
Fast answer, quick support and close proximity after deployment.
Technology stack
Eclectic hardware, practical software and models trained for your product.
MCM works with 2D and 3D machine vision, deep learning, spectroscopy and Industry 4.0 integration. Research and project work also extends to thermography and hyperspectral imaging, while software and hardware are selected around the application rather than a fixed brand.
Not sure which service fits?
Describe your product, defect or test requirement.
Tell MCM what you produce, which defects or tests matter, what speed the line runs at and what traceability you need. The team will propose the right inspection, testing or custom automation approach.
