Introduction of an image processing appearance system that inspects the implementation status of coating treatments such as rust prevention using a camera. Coating treatments are often performed in large quantities, and when inspections are conducted visually, there is a high likelihood of missing inspections. Therefore, by using automatic inspection, it becomes possible to inspect a large number of components in a short period of time.

State inspection on the lead frame may involve the use of optical microscopes, and visual inspection requires a significant amount of effort. Additionally, typical image processing devices cannot inspect the entire lead frame at once, often necessitating manual movement of the workpiece, which does not reduce labor and may also lead to errors. The system introduced here is an image processing inspection system that can be implemented relatively inexpensively using a general-purpose stage and customizable inspection software.

Generally, when conducting inspections, it is necessary to re-inspect the processed components in the inspection process. However, this system allows for inspections to be conducted while processing by installing cameras in the processing line, modifying part of the line, and adding a discharge mechanism. Since inspections are performed during the processing stage, there is no need to establish a separate inspection process, which is expected to reduce workload. Additionally, compared to creating separate inspection equipment, it can be implemented at a relatively low cost.

Measuring the relative positions and dimensions of numerous holes opened on a metal plate manually is a very labor-intensive task, even for experienced workers. Additionally, the more measurement points there are, the longer it takes. Furthermore, with devices that measure dimensions from images, if the size is too large to fit on a single screen, measurement may not be possible. In response to these issues, our system, which combines a general-purpose stage and an image processing system, allows for various dimension measurements to be performed simply by setting it up, accommodating both large items and those with many holes.

In the side inspection of cylindrical products, it is difficult to inspect the entire side while they are flowing on the conveyor line. However, by installing a rotating device in the middle of the line and conducting the inspection there, it becomes possible to inspect the outer circumference. In this case, it allows for inspection during transport without the need to set up a separate line for the inspection device.

When inspecting long materials like those produced by extrusion molding, it is common to cut them to an appropriate length or to rewind them and conduct inspections at that time. However, by installing a camera near the exit of the molding machine and performing inspections immediately after molding, it becomes possible to quickly detect any abnormalities that occurred during the molding process, and inspections can be carried out without having to go through a separate process for inspection.

Since tablet products are produced in large quantities, it becomes very difficult to conduct visual inspections. Additionally, while dedicated inspection equipment is high-performance, it is also quite expensive. Therefore, by installing cameras and lighting on the conveyor line and conducting inspections during transport, it becomes possible to implement automatic inspections relatively inexpensively.

In the secondary processing of resin molded products, the printing process may involve multiple layers of printing. If inspection is conducted after all printing processes are completed, it becomes difficult to determine at which stage the defects occurred. Additionally, since time has passed since the printing was done, if there is an issue in the printing process, the response may be delayed, potentially leading to an increase in defects during that time. Therefore, by conducting automatic inspections immediately after each printing stage is completed, it becomes possible to promptly identify which printing process caused the defects, allowing for improvements in the process. Furthermore, by capturing images in environments tailored to each stage immediately after printing, it is possible to reliably detect defects. Our system can accommodate this by installing multiple cameras in a single inspection system.

In color samples and sample boards, multiple colors and designs are printed or attached on a single sheet of paper, which poses a risk of incorrect samples due to placement errors or miscoloring. Therefore, by using images to determine whether the finely arranged small pieces of samples are in the correct color and positioned correctly, it becomes possible to eliminate these mistakes.

In the paper manufacturing, sewing, and resin film processing industries, roll-to-roll winding devices are used. A camera is installed on these devices to create a system that conducts defect inspections, such as surface dirt, during the winding process. When a defect is detected, measures are taken, such as stopping the winding device or displaying the distance from the starting position to the location of the detected defect.

When packaging products, it is common to print various information such as lot numbers, product names, and logos on the packaging boxes. However, when checking whether this printing is done correctly according to the specified information, it may sometimes be done at the stage when the boxes are stacked on a pallet. However, conducting inspections at that stage requires repacking and reprinting, which is very labor-intensive. Therefore, by verifying the printed content immediately after printing, it becomes possible to reduce this labor.

Rod-shaped and tube-shaped materials can be made from various materials, but due to the characteristics of the original material, there may be variations in length and diameter, or warping may occur. For these materials, by measuring while rotating the component, we can check the conditions of length, diameter, and warping. Additionally, by rotating the component, we can also perform complex inspections such as reading the text written on the side simultaneously.

Regarding the inspection of individually packaged confectionery items being transported on a conveyor, would you consider switching from "visual inspection" to "automated inspection using cameras"? We would like to introduce examples of systems that have been implemented with cameras and lighting on existing conveyor lines for inspection purposes. When conducting visual inspections of confectionery items flowing in large quantities on a conveyor, it is common to have inspectors stationed on the line to perform the checks. However, when items are flowing in large volumes, it becomes easier to overlook defects. Additionally, if an inspector is absent, it becomes necessary to secure personnel to carry out the inspection tasks. To alleviate these burdens, we encourage you to consider automated inspection. **Features of this system:** - Inspection can be performed on the conveyor line without creating a separate inspection system. - Since inspections are conducted on the conveyor line, it is possible to inspect without the need for additional equipment. - Even for items flowing in large quantities, it is possible to detect defects among them. - The equipment can be modified based on the inspection requirements. *First, we will verify whether the work you wish to inspect is feasible for inspection.* *Detailed processing information and flow are included in the PDF.*

A system that performs inspections during transportation to detect defects (such as dirt or double cuts) on the cut surfaces that occur when slitting films and tapes. By conducting inspections during transportation, it becomes possible to carry out inspection tasks without the need for additional work processes.

In the case of a standard cylindrical resin bottle, it is possible to conduct inspections using devices that rotate the workpiece; however, if there are protrusions such as a spout, those areas cannot be inspected, and alternative measures such as visual inspection may be necessary. This system implements full automation by adding a special camera to inspect the nozzle area.

When visually inspecting the surfaces of large wooden doors and panels, workers can easily experience a significant burden, which may lead to issues such as missed defects. This system employs a 2D operating scara robot equipped with a camera and lighting to thoroughly check the inspection targets, creating an inspection system. By selecting the camera's precision according to the size of the defects to be detected, inspections can be carried out with stable accuracy.

When conducting inspections using a stereo microscope, inspectors tend to accumulate fatigue as they must constantly look through the microscope. Additionally, since inspections are performed while moving the entire workpiece, there can be areas that are overlooked or places that have been inspected but are unclear, making it very labor-intensive to check them later. This system automatically inspects the workpiece sequentially from the edges, preventing oversights and automatically mapping defective areas. By visually reconfirming the results, it reduces the burden of work. Even for detailed inspections of defects, the machine can repeatedly perform inspections, allowing for accurate and thorough checks without omissions.

The inspection of electronic components on printed circuit boards involves a wide variety of types and numerous items to check, so you may be relying on visual inspections. Our proposed system utilizes an XY operating stage, allowing for the inspection of the presence, type differences, and installation direction differences of components on boards of 500mm x 500mm size. Additionally, through type registration, it becomes possible to conduct accurate inspections even on boards with similar layouts.

In dimension measurement, many people use calipers or dedicated measuring devices. While these instruments can accurately measure dimensions at individual points, the effort required can often become an issue when there are numerous measurement points. The dimension measurement system we propose utilizes a camera and an XY operating stage to comprehensively measure the necessary points with a single operation of the device. Additionally, even when there are many varieties, it is possible to measure without setting values each time by registering the measurement points for each variety.
