Summary
History
Viscom was founded in 1984 by Dr. Martin Heuser and Volker Pape as a developer of software for image processing. After relocating to its current location in the Badenstedt district of Hanover in 1992, the company began serial production of inspection systems for electronics. In 1995 Viscom established another of its main pillars with the introduction of microfocus X-ray inspection and the first system worldwide to combine inspection under incident light and X-ray. In 1998 subsidiaries were founded in the United States and Singapore, and a worldwide network of sales representatives was created. In 2001 Viscom tapped into yet another business sector with the introduction of its microsystem inspection. In the same year, the company changed its corporate form to a German stock corporation before its initial listing on the stock market in May 2006. In 2012 Viscom developed the one-of-a-kind XM camera sensor technology, which is still used in AOI systems to this day. Viscom achieved record sales in 2017. Co-founder Volker Pape was elected to the Supervisory Board on June 1, 2018, naming Carsten Salewski the new Director of Sales, Marketing and International Business. During the same period, former Head of Product Development Peter Krippner was promoted to the Executive Board in the role of COO.
