What happens when a 35-year industry veteran decides the entire concept of inspection “machines” is obsolete? Roberto Gatti, CEO of Delvitech, offers a fascinating glimpse into the future of electronic manufacturing inspection with his company’s revolutionary technology platform.
Founded in Switzerland in 2018 after extensive research at Virginia Tech University, Delvitech has created something fundamentally different in the inspection space. Their Horus platform represents a fusion of proprietary high-end computational hardware and AI-native software. Every critical component—from cameras and projectors to synchronization boards and neural networks—is developed in-house, giving Delvitech extraordinary flexibility and processing power to handle the massive 15-18GB data streams generated from each small inspection window.
The most striking advantage comes from how this platform transcends traditional inspection categories. Unlike competitors who offer separate machines for surface paste inspection, automated optical inspection, and pre/post-reflow applications, Delvitech’s single platform can perform all these functions. This universality delivers operational benefits: standardized hardware and software across inspection points, simplified maintenance, and the ability to freely redeploy units anywhere in the production line as needs change. For manufacturers facing evolving production requirements, this flexibility could be game-changing.
Delvitech intends to democratize AI implementation through their Training Manager software, allowing end users to train neural networks for inspecting components not found in standard libraries. As the company expands globally with new offices near Dallas, in Bangalore, and soon in Germany, they’re positioning themselves to support manufacturers worldwide with consistent, cutting-edge inspection technology that redefines what’s possible.
