MELVILLE, N.Y., Oct. 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- To demonstrate how its solutions can help automate lean processes from the factory floor to the front office, Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, exhibits at AME 2018 (Booth #112/114). Solutions at the show in San Diego from October 29 to November 1 include enterprise content management with the Therefore platform, output management with the uniFLOW platform, imageWARE Secure Audit Manager Express, accounts payable automation solutions, and AI- based Assisted Defect Recognition for quality control.

"Canon business solutions can help automate and streamline organizations' lean document processes. Solutions from manufacturing defect recognition to finance and accounts payable workflows, aide in driving efficiencies and creating the conditions for better productivity."
To help organizations accomplish such goals, Canon will demonstrate onsite how its solutions can automate accounting processes, how to improve workflow efficiency through Therefore's Product Registration and Warranty Claims processing tool, and protect confidential information through such platforms as uniFLOW and imageWARE Secure Audit Manager Express.
