In this paper, O-ring size measurement algorithm based on a small machine vision inspection equipment which can replace a expensive and large machine vision inspection equipment is presented. The small machine vision inspection equipment acquires a image from a CCD camera shooting a measurement plane which located on a back light and the proposed size measurement algorithm is apply to the image. For improvement of size measurement accuracy, camera lens distortion correction and perspective distortion correction are conducted by software technique. Consider O-ring's shape, ellipse fitting model is applied. In order to increase the reliability of ellipse fitting, RANSAC algorithm is applied.

SMT is an equipment that picks up electronic components and does precise placing onto PCBs. In order to do this, it stops in front of a camera installed in the middle to go over vision inspection. And after that it is move for placing. In this paper, We compared to the method of the placing after inspect to the stoped component and the moving component in front of the camera. As a result, This paper shows that the time efficiency of the fly-motion was increased by 9 percent than the stop-motion.

In this paper, we propose a visual inspection method of automotive parts for injection molding to improve the appearance quality and productivity of automotive parts. Exterior inspection of existing injection molding automobile parts was generally done by manual sampling inspection by human. First, we applied the edge-tolerance vision inspection algorithm ([1] - [4]) for vision inspection of electronic components (TFT-LCD and PCB) And we propose a new visual inspection method to overcome the problem. In the proposed visual inspection, the inspection images of the parts to be inspected are aligned on the basis of the reference image of good quality. Then, after partial adaptive binarization, the binary block matching algorithm is used to compare the good binary image and the test binary image. We verified the effectiveness of the edge-tolerance vision check algorithm and the proposed appearance vision test method through various comparative experiments using actual developed equipment.

The automated visual inspection system (machine vision system) for quality assurance is an important factory automation equipment in the manufacturing industries, such as display, semiconductor, etc. The world market of the machine vision components is expected 18 billon dollars in 2015. Therefore, there is a lot of demand for the machine vision engineers. However, there are no technical training courses for machine vision technologies in vocational schools, colleges and universities. In this paper, we propose a technical training program for the machine vision technology. The total time of training is 30 to 60 hours and the training program can operate flexibly by student's major, a priori knowledge and education level.

SMT is an device that picks up electronic components and does precise placing onto PCBs. In order to do this, it stops in front of a camera installed in the middle to go over vision inspection. And after that it is move for placing. There are 16 different types of routes in this process. This paper compared to the moving time of three methods in the (sLa-Camera-pLa)type. The first method is stopping in front of the camera for vision inspection and placing components onto PCBs(stop-motion). The second method is moving in front of the camera for vision inspection without stopping(fly1-motion). The third method is inspecting the components when the speed of the X axis, the Y axis is the best and is placing components onto PCBs(fly2-motion). This paper shows the moving time of three methods is same. Therefore we proved that the stop-motion method can be placing in the fastest time without changing structure of the device in the (sLa-Camera-pLa)type.

SMT is an equipment that picks up electronic components and does precise placing onto PCBs. In order to do this, it stops in front of a camera installed in the middle to go over vision inspection. And after that it is move for placing. There are 16 different types of routes in this process. This paper presents the fastest algorithm to place (sLa-Camera-pLb) among all these routes. In order to do this, instead of stopping in front of camera the object should move on while going over the vision inspection. Among all possible tracks, this thesis will provide algorithm to find out the fastest tracks to do vision inspection and placing. And as a result, this thesis have demonstrated that this method can save about 16% of time compared to going over inspection while the object is standing still through simulation.

A SMT machine is used to place electronic components on a PCB precisely. To place it precisely, after a component inspection, it finds an offset value using a vision camera, and places the precise position on the PCB. In general, to inspect the components with a vision camera, the components stop in front of the camera for inspection, then move to the placement position. On the other hand, if they do not stop in front of a camera, the inspection time will be shortened and the productivity would be increased. In this thesis, when inspecting without stopping in front of a camera, the fastest way among various routes is described. For the gantry passing over a vision camera, both the distance and speed of a gantry moving trajectory were studied, and there was approximately 5% speed increment when using the method suggested in this thesis.

When more parts are mounted in the same time in a surface mount equipment, the total output will increase and will improve productivity. In this paper, we propose a method to reduce the gantry drive time from the suction to the mounting of the component to improve the productivity of the surface mount equipment. The method was to find a way to get the maximum velocity in front of the camera during the vision inspection. In this paper, we have developed a stop-motion, fly1-motion, and fly2-motion drive time calculation algorithms for vision inspection and calculated the driving time of 3 methods and compared them. As a result, the fly1-motion method shortened the time by 13% and the fly2-motion method shortened the time by 18% than the stop-motion method.

This technology will make using the microvision automatic test equipment and automatic test equipment microlaser. This is that the operator intends to make the defect rate 0 in the inspection stage of the product which has been carelessly processed. The equipment developed in this research project will be applied to many areas. Packaging companies, nut bolt processing company, precisely supplier for printing on top of the semiconductor, SMT, etc. The company wants to sell the vision inspection equipment for various applications. If the defective rate of 0 is achieved through this research project, it is also possible to secure a stable supply from the parent company, and to lay the foundations for exporting based on product reliability. When the automatic inspection system is applied to domestic automobile parts processing companies, the reliability of automobiles in Korea will be greatly increased.
