Machine Vision

Machine vision is the automated visual inspection of manufactured items using industrial cameras, lenses, and light. Machine vision is a real-time method of component inspection that is both fast and accurate. Machine vision can image and analyze every item coming down a line at high speed, ensuring 100% quality control. Machine vision can automate many industrial inspections, including visual inspections for defects and problems, presence checks, product type verification, measurements and code reading.

Application of machine vision in metal industry

Counting: In different parts of the production line, the use of image processing systems has a significant impact on the speed and accuracy of counting parts and making decisions about different situations.

Pathology: With the help of machine vision, defects, dents and scratches on the surface of the product can be detected. In order to control the sensitivity, a threshold can be defined to separate “acceptable” problems from unacceptable errors. Simultaneous use of machine vision along with machine learning can be highly effective in improving quality, as we can teach the robot examples of correctness and error.

Print defects: The purpose of print defect detection is to find printing abnormalities such as incorrect color shades or missing or defective parts of the print. With the help of machine vision, such anomalies can be prevented.

Product identification and tracking: Machine vision identification requires identifying a part or product to track it throughout the manufacturing or logistics process to ensure that the correct item is produced. Character reading (OCR) or barcodes can be used to identify objects.

Positioning: Machine vision is commonly used to guide robotics.The purpose of the machine vision system is to determine the coordinates and location of a target object.Its data can grab the object or do whatever else the situation requires
