PROBLEMS

  • Poor handling while manufacturing and transportation cause damage like scratch, breakdown, spots, etc. These defects (size < 0.5mm) are being missed out due to large volume and only a few inspectors
  • Additional labor is required, due to fast conveyor speed(109 parts/min)
  • The inspection is detailed oriented, causing labor fatigue

CLIENT REQUIREMENTS

  • To automate the in-line inspection of the surface anomalies on both sides of spoons with the help of machine vision.
  • Spoons are moving at high speed and thus the cycle time of inspection should be less than a second
  • Auto-reject the defective spoons moving on conveyors
