2022
Foundation
The Beginning of a Vision
We was founded in global location by a team of engineers with expertise in image processing and electronics. The company's initial focus was on developing specialized image acquisition and processing solutions for industrial applications, particularly in manufacturing quality control.
With an initial team of just 8 employees, the company secured its first major contract with a European semiconductor manufacturer, establishing the foundation for what would become a global enterprise.
1995
International Expansion
Crossing the Atlantic
After establishing a strong presence in the European market, Onnl opened its first international office in Silicon Valley, California. This strategic move allowed the company to better serve the growing North American market and establish partnerships with leading technology companies in the region.
The U.S. expansion coincided with the release of our first-generation MultiCam frame grabber series, which quickly gained recognition for its reliability and performance in industrial applications.
2001
Technological Breakthrough
Revolutionary Frame Grabber Technology
2001 marked a significant milestone with the launch of our groundbreaking high-speed frame grabber technology. The Domino series introduced unprecedented data transfer rates and multi-camera synchronization capabilities, setting new industry standards for image acquisition.
The company also established its R&D center in Liège, dedicated to advancing machine vision technologies and developing next-generation solutions.
2008
Asian Market Entry
Expanding to the East
Recognizing the growing importance of the Asian market, Onnl established offices in Shanghai, China and Tokyo, Japan in 2008. This expansion allowed us to better serve the rapidly growing manufacturing sectors in Asia and provide localized support to our customers in the region.
The Asian expansion coincided with the global financial crisis, but Onnl' focus on innovation and customer service allowed the company to continue growing despite economic challenges.
By the end of 2008, Onnl had established partnerships with major Asian electronics and automotive manufacturers, significantly expanding our global footprint.
2014
Software Innovation
EasyVision Software Suite
2014 saw the release of our comprehensive EasyVision software suite, integrating advanced image processing algorithms with intuitive user interfaces. This platform allowed users to develop sophisticated vision applications without extensive programming knowledge, making advanced machine vision more accessible.
The software suite included specialized modules for various industries, including semiconductor inspection, pharmaceutical verification, and automotive quality control.
EasyVision's success led to a 40% increase in software revenue and established Onnl as a complete solution provider in the machine vision industry, offering both hardware and software components.
2019
