Abstract
This paper presents a vision based tire mold inspection system where mold defects are inspected and the sizes of specific parts of the mold are measured. There are a lot of challenging issues as letters and pictures of intaglio are engraved on a bright surface of the tire mold. To solve the issues, we carefully selected a line-scan camera and a line light. In addition, we used PLC to control the mechanical parts. The developed system provides inspection of misspelled and deformed letters as well as a variety of the functions such as size measurement of engraved regions and inspection report file creation.
