The visual detection system of visual sensors provides image-based automated detection, facilitating various industrial and manufacturing applications. Although 2D and 3D visual sensors are not a new technology, they are now commonly used for automatic detection, robot guidance, quality control, and sorting. These intelligent detection systems are equipped with one or more cameras, even video and lighting. Visual sensors can measure parts, verify whether they are in the correct position, and recognize the shape of the parts. In addition, visual sensors can measure and classify parts at high speed. Computer software processes images captured during the evaluation process to capture data.
Visual sensors provide simple and reliable detection with powerful visual tools, modular lighting and optical devices, and an easy-to-use setup environment. Visual sensors are intelligent and can make decisions that affect the functionality being evaluated, typically triggering operators to take action through failed signals. These systems can be embedded into production lines to provide continuous information flow.
Visual sensors are widely used in industrial factories and processes to maintain product quality and check whether operational efficiency has been achieved. No contact is required to determine barcodes, imprints or stains detection, size and alignment, and many other features. Let's take a look at some specific application methods of visual sensors in engineering and scientific processes.
Check the text printed on different colored glossy bags: Visual sensors can be used to check the expiration date printed on small bags with red, gold, or silver luster. The character extraction performance on the packaging can recognize targets with different background colors without changing the settings. The light source can illuminate more evenly, ensuring stable detection even on uneven or glossy workpieces.
Identify the encoding date and time in the string: The visual sensor checks the encoding date and time as well as the expiration date in the string. The quality control string, including date and time, can be identified by using the calendar function for automatic updates. The date or time changes identified from the production plan do not require changes to the camera settings.
The applications of visual sensors include but are not limited to high-speed product inspection (quality control), measurement, quantity calculation, sorting, positioning, decoding, robot guidance, and other applications. The advantages of visual sensors are enormous, and many processes involving manual inspection can use visual sensors to greatly improve efficiency. Industries that have adopted visual sensors include food packaging and beverage bottling; Automotive, electronic, and semiconductor assembly; And pharmaceutical companies. The common tasks of visual sensors include robot guidance, retrieval and placement processes, and counting. Railway companies use visual sensors for automated high-speed railway inspections
