  • In this paper, a quality inspection system was developed to identify the defective assembly of connectors used in automobile wiring. For waterproof connectors, an internal seal must be inserted for waterproofing. However, there are cases where it is omitted or double-inserted during production. An automatic inspection jig was designed using photosensors and touch switches to classify good and bad connector components. In the case of the existing visual inspection, 6,400 connectors were inspected when 5 people inspected for 8 hours. However, when using the inspection jig developed under the same conditions, 20,000 pieces were inspected. In other words, the productivity is greatly improved compared to the conventional visual inspection.

  • Quality inspection of textile products is an important problem for fabric manufacturers. This paper presents an automatic vision-based system for quality control of web textile fabrics. Typical web material is 1-3m wide and is driven with speeds ranging from 20m/min to 200m/min. At the present, the quality assessment procedures are performed manually by expert. But worker can not detect more than 60% of the present defect and inspect the fabric if moving faster than 30m/min. To increase the overall quality and homogeneity of textile, an automated visual inspection system is needed fur the productivity. However, the existing inspection system are too expensive to purchase for small companies. In this paper, the proposed PC based real-time inspection algorithm gives low cost textile inspection system, high detection rate with good accuracy and low rate of false alarms. The method shows good results in the detection of several types of fabric defects.

  • As a unify operational processes of the safety inspection for major national facilities, it is expected that the efficiency and professionalism of the project will be enhanced. Also it is being emphasized that the importance of visual inspection that initially find physical and functional defects in facilities. In this study, we developed an E-PAD-based condition evaluation system to check the safety of the facility to overcome the problems and limitations of the existing inspection method. This system consists of introduction, work list, visual inspection, defect table and so on. It is possible to download the inspection drawings at the site and input the damage information to the drawings and check the evaluation grade. In order to verify the E-PAD based condition evaluation system, the inspection data of 10 sample bridges were inputted into the system and the evaluation results were compared. As a result, it was confirmed that the safety grade calculated from the system and the existing safety grade are the same. The feasibility analysis of the AHP method also showed that the function increased by 10%, cost by 36%, and value by 30% compared to the existing method. Therefore, it is expected to contribute to systematic data and information analysis system for improvement of facility management.

  • This work present a new method of sealing inspection system for vehicle in which foam rubber materials are used for sealing the vehicle parts. This system is composed from a devices comprising non-contact and real-time scanning on visual inspection in machine parts. We have been investigated qualitative factors that influenced on sealing system of vehicle structure which flexibly attenuated vibration and plenty of foam rubber materials having elastic property. However, there are different factors which still depended on outdated technique (personnel subjective judgment) in the performance inspection of rubber parts, specially for cross section inspection. Through a newly developed inspection system which recently applied for the production line, we successfully achieved more effective results of matching rate by about 80 % in the sealing performance inspection with 0.7% to 1.4% in the repeated errors. These are resulted from non-contacted response by CCD camera and vision program using geometry matching method. We expect that this system may be widely applied in the strict inspection parts of more diverse cross-section in future.

  • This paper deals with inspect algorithm using visual system. One of the major problems that arise during polymer production is the estimation of the noise of the product(bad pallets). An erroneous output can cause a lot of losses (production and financial losses). Therefore new methods for real-time inspection of the noise are demanded. For this reason, we have presented a development of vision system algorithm for the defect inspection of PE pallets. First of all, in order to detect the edge of object, the differential filter is used. And we apply to the labeling algorithm for feature extraction. This algorithm is designed for the defect inspection of pallets ...

  • AVI (Automatic Vision Inspection) systems automatically detect defect features and measure their sizes via camera vision. Defect detection is not an easy process because of noises from various sources and optical distortion. In this paper the acquired images from a TFT panel are enhanced with the adoption of an HVS (Human Visual System). A human visual system is more sensitive on the defect area than the illumination components because it has greater sensitivity to variations of intensity. In this paper we modified an MTF (Modulation Transfer Function) in the Wavelet domain and utilized the characteristics of an HVS. The proposed algorithm flattens the inner illumination components while preserving the defect information intact.

  • Mini Double Gears Frame is critical part of PDP and also produces couple hundred thousand every month. In the process of mass production, product inspection is very important process. Double Gear, one of the part of machine, was inspected by human eyes which caused mistakes and slow progress. To achieve the speed and accuracy the system was compensated by vision system which is inspecting automatically. The focus value is measured based on the fact that high contrast images have much high frequency edge information. High frequency term of the image is extracted using the high-pass filter and the sum of the high frequency term is used as the focus value. We used a Gaussian smoothing filter to reduce the noise and then measures the focus value using the modified Laplacian filter called a Sum modified Laplacian Focus values for the various lens positions are calculated and the position with the maximum focus value is decided as the focused position. The focus values calculated in various lens position showed the Gaussian distribution. We proposed a method to estimate the best focus position using the Gaussian curve fitting. Focus values of the uniform interval lens positions are calculated and the values are used to estimate the Gaussian distribution parameters to find the best focus position.

  • In this study we'll deal with the small-sized metalized film capacitors with large capacity which head have $5mm{\times}5mm{\times}2.5mm$ dimension. The lead wire is used to weld at both sides of capacitors. At that time the position gap between the welding machine and lead wire supplier would cause the welding error. Also, during the tapping processing of metalized film capacitors, the interval error among the capacitors, the length error of lead frame attached at the capacitors, and the straightness distortion of the lead frame could happen. As mentioned, four kinds of error parameters will be measured and analyzed by using the automatic visual inspection system that is implemented with CCD camera, optical parts, background lighting, and image processing algorithms. Finally we are able to achieve success rate above 99% to detect the welding faults of capacitors in the field test.
