    摘要: This invention relates to a method and apparatus for mass and/or volume measurements of manufactured articles. More particularly, this invention relates to a method and apparatus for mass and/or volume measurements that can be performed on-line in a part manufacturing process. On-line measurement of the mass or volume of material contained in a specific region of interest of the manufactured items is performed 100% on-line. Real-time process control information is based on real-time measurement of the mass or volume of material contained in a specific region of interest of a manufactured item. Automated quality control inspection for manufactured articles is based on real-time measurement of the mass or volume of material contained in a specific region of interest of manufactured items. A manufacturing closed-loop process is directly corrected to keep it within control limits based on real-time measurement of the mass or volume of material contained in a specific region of interest of manufactured items soon after these items are manufactured.

    摘要: These adjustments can be realized through manipulation of graphical elements on the display or through manipulation of a threshold line, such as threshold line (203). The vertical bars that exceed line (203), like (205), are turned red (not shown) instead of the normal green color (not shown) of the bars (202) that do not exceed line (203). The 'Y' axis or vertical axis of the graph (204) represents sensitivity. In one form, for example, sensitivity may relate to grey scale data. The 'X' axis (20) represents individual parts in a time sequence with forward time moving in the direction of (206). Two variables were chosen for this graphical display to maximize ease of use but more could be incorporated if the application dictates. The user adjustable parameter settings on this graphical interface are the defects scale (212) and the sensitivity bar (203). Of course, if more adjustable parameters are desired, additional scales could be incorporated into the display or screen, for example. In order to change the sensitivity adjustment (203), the user would click and hold his pointing device on line (203) and drag it up or down depending on which way he wants to go with the sensitivity adjustment.

    摘要: This invention relates to an apparatus and method for inspecting multi-layer plastic containers (10). More particularly, the invention relates to such an apparatus and method whereby optical energy absorbing compounds are added to the materials comprising the layer(s) of the container (10) to facilitate inspection thereof. Apparatus comprises a sensor unit (40), an illumination unit (30) for illuminating a portion of electromagnetic spectrum at a near IR wavelength to an inspection zone (20) which is located between the sensor unit (40) and the illumination unit (30). A processing unit (50) which receives an output of the sensor unit (40) and determines the attributes of the multi-layer plastic containers (10).

    摘要: A system for automated inspection of article exteriors includes a plurality of video cameras (32). One or more of these video cameras (32) is black and white while at least one is color capable. A strobe light for illuminating a specimen (22) disposed in a specimen area (24) onto which all of the cameras (32) are focused. The strobe allows for each camera (32) to capture a still image of the specimen (22), The black and white cameras (32) capture images which allow determining whether the exterior layout is acceptable. The color camera or cameras (30) captures an image which allows determining whether the coloration of the specimen (22) is acceptable. Specimens (22) are selectively rejected on the basis of these acquired images. The system is particularly useful in inspection of beverage container (22) and their associated labelling.
