MVTec and BMG bring Halcon machine vision to Bosch Rexroth's ctrlX OS

MVTec and BMG bring Halcon machine vision to Bosch Rexroth's ctrlX OS

Bosch Manufacturing Solutions' Nexeed Integrated Vision app enables the use of MVTec's Halcon procedures on Bosch Rexroth's ctrlX OS. That suggests vision on ctrlX is becoming an app choice. Machine builders should compare stacks on licensing, training hardware and integration effort.

  • 01On a Bosch Rexroth controller, machine vision is becoming a software purchase: BMG's Nexeed Integrated Vision app makes MVTec Halcon procedures available on ctrlX OS.
  • 02A hardware-independent operating system makes it easier to move between controllers. It doesn't make vision apps interchangeable, so the vision stack a machine builder picks is the decision that will last longest.

Machine condition monitoring in 2025: MRFR says $1.49 billion, FMI says $3.2 billion

Machine condition monitoring in 2025: MRFR says $1.49 billion, FMI says $3.2 billion

IndexBox expects machine health monitoring to spread from power generation and heavy process industries into mid-sized manufacturing, fleets and rail by 2035. Market Research Future values the market at $1.49 billion in 2025, while Future Market Insights puts it at $3.2 billion. MRFR gives hardware 47.2% of 2025 revenue and forecasts software to grow 11.8% a year through 2035.

  • 01Hardware is about half or more of spending (46% to over 55%), and vibration leads where reported (34.2% to 36.1%), while one forecast puts software growth at 11.8% a year. That mix is a better budgeting benchmark than any total.
  • 02Analysts are urging vendors toward pricing tied to downtime avoided instead of sensor count, which would make the downtime baseline, and who measures it, the clause that matters most in a monitoring contract.
