We develop an inspection method for bearing faults with a rapid change in the rotation speed and present indexes for the pass/fail inspection. At the end of line, impulse noises generated by the operation of machines and conveyors may distort the inspection results. In this paper, we present robust inspection indexes for bearing faults under impulse noises, by taking into account fault signals having pulse train. Using logistic regression, we optimize the pass/fail criterion for each index and evaluate the performance of the inspection indexes based on the total error rate.

In this paper, we address a design problem and a case study of a K-stage back-light-unit(BLU) inspection system, which is composed of K stages, each of which includes an inspection process and a rework process. Assuming the type I, II errors and the inspection-free policy for items classified as good, we determine the smallest integer of K which can achieve a given target defective rate. If K does not exist, holding the current values of the type I, II errors, we search reversely the defective rate of an assembly line and the defective rate of a rework process, to meet the target defective rate. Our formulae and methodology based on a K-stage inspection system could be applied and extended to similar situations with slight modification.

Dynamo based vehicle inspection device is end of line device for automobile industry. The device is utilized as implementing vehicle functionality inspection such as brake force, cruise control, kick-down acceleration, CAN inspection. As dynamo based inspection device is broadly adopted in automobile industry, the dynamic study is required to verify the vehicle test equipment reliability. This research recommends appropriate dynamic brake force inspection procedure and theoretical background for developed equipment. Dynamic characteristic of brake force implementation to roller is simplified. With simplified characteristics, the indirect brake force measurement strategy is developed and adopted. Comparison of each brake force result, the appropriate brake force inspection criterion is given.

The inspection machine in PCB (printed circuit board) assembly line checks assembly errors by inspecting the images inside of the component inspection region. The component inspection region consists of region of component package and region of soldering. It is necessary to extract the regions automatically for auto-teaching system of the inspection machine. We propose an image segmentation method to extract the component inspection regions automatically from images of PCB. The acquired image is transformed to HSI color model, and then segmented by several regions by clustering method. We develop a modified K-means algorithm to increase the accuracy of extraction. The heuristics generating the initial clusters and merging the final clusters are newly proposed. The vertical and horizontal projection is also developed to distinguish the region of component package and region of soldering. The experimental results are presented to verify the usefulness of the proposed method.

Construction safety inspections come in a wide variety of types. The types of inspection are, 1) a self-checking and a periodical-checking by contractors, 2) a site inspection by Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transprt (MOLIT) or licensing organizations and 3) others. In this situation, there are needs to determine fuction of the safty inspection and roll of stakeholders for the inspection to avoid unnecessary duplication and serious omission. The result of this study indicates a guide line for improving of consturcion safety inspection systems as a fundamental research.

This paper proposed efficient manufacturing system using the OMM (on-machine measurement) system. The OMM system is software based 3D modeler for inspection on machine and it is interfaced tool machine with RS232C. The software is composed of two inspection modules that one is touch probe operating module and the other is laser displacement sensor operating module. The module for touch probe has need of inspection feature that extracted it from CAD data. Touch probe moves to workpiece by three operating modes as follows: manual, general and automatic mode. The operating module of laser displacement sensor is used inspection for profile and very small hole. An Advantage of this inspection method is to be able to execute on-line inspection during machining or after it. The efficiency of proposed system which can predict and definite the machining errors of each process is verified, so the developed system is applied to inspect the mold-base(cavity, core).

The machine vision system has been widely applied at automatic inspection field of the industries. Especially, the machine vision system shows good performance at difficult inspection field by contact method. In this paper, the automatic system of a slant method to inspect screw/bolt shape using machine vision is developed. The inspection system uses pattern matching method that search similar degree of the lucidity, the average lucidity, length and angle of inspection set up area using a circular scan and a line scan method. Also the feeding method for inspection product is the slant method, and feed rate is controlled by the ramp angle adjustment. This inspection system is composed of a feeding device, a transfer device, vision systems, a lighting device and computer, and is composed the sorting discharge system of the inferior product. The performance test carried out the feeding speed, the shape correct degree and the sorting discharge speed according to the type of screw/bolt. This sorting inspection system showed a satisfied test results in whole inspection items. Presently, this sorting inspection system is being used in the manufacturing process of screw/bolt usefully.

The inspection of distance to go train control system conducted only when train is in main line or inspecting line, that affects low work efficiency and hazard elements to safe operation. Before or after train operation, the interface test between on-board and wayside signal system must be conducted. In this paper, onboard signal interface inspection system based on the real-time automatic analysis of onboard system status information that is transmitted to the wayside system and the operation status check of the onboard signal device operates as a virtual train information that is transmitted to the onboard system have been proposed. And after building the inspection system to the inspecting track of Daejeon Subway Line 1, Panam Depot, the verification algorithm of proposed interface test and the results was presented. therefore, it has enhanced work efficiency to do not carry train operation of a half hour in test line to test on-board system.

Cost-benefit analysis (CBA) has been performed in order to decide whether the ILI (in-line inspection) suggested as risk mitigation measure (RMM) from quantitative risk assessment is reasonably practicable. As a result of CBA, we could find out the reasonable intervals of implementation of ILI. In order to assess the benefit, value of preventing a fatality (VPF), which measures value of human life, has been used. The adequate VPF figure of high pressure urban gas pipelines for CBA used in this paper is two billion won. As a result of 2 case studies, we found that the most reasonable intervals of ILI suggested as RMM were 13 years or 15 years.
