InspecVision wins prestigious Queen’s Award for Enterprise

Mallusk, Northern Ireland-based company, InspecVision, has been honoured with a Queen’s Award for Enterprise for its outstanding export performance.

InspecVision is one of five Northern Ireland firms and 205 organisations nationally to be recognised with this prestigious award. InspecVision develops and manufactures 2D and 3D measurement systems for the inspection of manufactured components.

The company’s core market is the sheetmetal industry with customers producing components for a wide range of applications including the automotive and aerospace sectors. InspecVision has been recognised for its excellence in international trade with overseas sales growth of 129% over the last three years, with its main export markets being the United States, China and Europe.

The company was established in 2005 by Dr Jan Antonis and his father Mike Antonis. Jan had completed a PhD in computer vision at Queens University Belfast and Mike had recently retired as managing director of FG Wilson Engineering.

The pair identified a gap in the market for high-speed, easy-to-use, lower cost inspection machines and developed and launched the Planar, claimed by the manufacturer to be the world’s fastest measurement system for 2D parts. Today the product range is sold in over 30 countries and has expanded to include 3D inspection.

Dr Jan Antonis, managing director said: “I am very proud that InspecVision has achieved the prestigious Queens Awards for Enterprise. This celebrates the dedication and commitment of our team and the immense contribution and support of our distribution partners which has enabled us to deliver world-class quality control solutions to manufacturers across the globe.”
