제품의 소형화, 고성능화, 부품의 제작기술의 급속한 발전으로 SMD실장기술은 소형화, 고밀도화로 진 보를 이루어왔다. 그러나, 기존의 PCB 검사 방법으로는 정확하고, 균일한 검사가 어려워 이를 해결할 수 있는 검사 방법이 요구되어 왔다. Machine Vsion에 의한 검사는 균일하고 정확하며, 불량의 유형도 판별하여 전체 공정의 제어가 가능한 방법이다. 본 연구에서는 영상처리에 적합한 영상을 쉽게 얻을 수 있도록 고휘도 LED를 사용하고, 밝기 조절이 가능한 영상획득부를 설계하였으며, Morphology filter룰 사용하여 빠르고, 안정된 noise 제거 및 edge 검출 알고리즘을 구현하였다.

In this paper, a optimal algorithm that can produce the FOV is proposed in terms of using the Kohonen's Self-Organizing Map(KSOM). A FOV, that stands for "Field Of View", means maximum area where a camera could be wholly seen and influences the total time of inspection of vision system. Therefore, we draw algorithm with a KSOM which aims to map an input space of N-dimensions into a one-or two-dimensional lattice of output layer neurons in order to optimize the number and location of FOV, instead of former sequentila method. Then, we show demonstratin through computer simulation using the real PCB data. PCB data.

Austomated visual inspection(AVI) capability has become an important key component in the automated manufacturing system. In such a visual inspection system an intensity(or color) image of a scene is quickly affected by optical property of objects, condition and roughness of surface, lens and filters, image sensor property and lighting system. In particular, the lighting system disign is the most important factor, since it affects overall performance of the visual system. For fast and cheap automated visual inspection system it is important to obtain the good image quality which results from careful attention to the design of the lighting system. In this paper, the lighting subsystem of AVI system is analysed for the inspection of printed circuit board(PCB) patterns. The spectral reflectance of materials, which are composed of PCB, is measured for choosing the light source. The reflection property is theoretically obtained by a reflection model and also obtained by experiments which measure intensity with varying the viewing direction of image sensor and the lighting direction of illuminator. The illumination uniformity of a ring-type illuminator. The lighting system is designed based upon the experimental results and theoretial analysis.

Recently advanced device and sophisticated manufacture process by high-density, high-integration require critical inspection criteria in SMT(surface mounting technologies). Especially for solder paste which come out over 60% of inferior goods of all product, 3-dimensional inspection replaces 2-D inspection as a effectiveness substitute of this trend. Therefore this paper proposes a fast 3-D inspection system and measurement algorithm automatically inspecting 3-D solder paste of PCB in SMT assembly line. The proposed method generates 3-D surface of data using B-spline algorithm and then extracts to inspect the pad.

The appearance inspection of various electronic products and parts was executed by the eyesight of human. The appearance inspection is applied to the most electronic component of LCD Panel, flexible PCB and remote control. If the appearance of electronic products of small and minute size is inspected by the eyesight of human, we can't expect the stable inspection result because inspection result is changed by condition of physical and spirit of the checker. Therefore currently machine vision systems are used to many appearance inspection fields instead of inspection by human. The many problems of inspection by the checker are not occurred in machine vision circumstance. However, the inspection by automatic machine vision system is mainly influenced by illumination of workplace. In this paper, we propose a histogram transform method for improving accuracy of machine visual inspection.

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.

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.
