Cell inspection

Challenge

When cell breakage or string parallelism is inspected, the various surface colours and shapes make it difficult to detect failures. For change-overs of inspected cells, it takes time to set up the next lot for inspection. Moreover, the conventional vision sensor is not fast enough for continuous inspection.

Solution

With pattern matching of the shape and filtered colour contrast using one of our vision systems, defective products can be positively identified. Real-time searching allows inspection in fast production lines and the measured data can be sent via Ethernet to motion control, serial I/F, USB or parallel I/F. Real time communication for quick positioning is therefore possible.

Benefit

Easy setting-up, which saves time, strict quality control with a low-cost solution, and improved throughput with high-speed inspection.
