Diagnostics of Product by Vision System

Abstract:

This article describes the vision system, which is designed for diagnostics of defects in casted products. In the first part an overview about image processing, edge and pattern recognition algorithms and current status in available free and commercial vision libraries is found. For the described task we selected open source Aforge .NET library. The next part describes common defects in casted products. Modular education system MPS 500 from Festo with conveyor and palette with plastic parts is used for simulation of production system. This system contains an industrial robot which can be used for sorting defective parts. The selected vision library is used for two level diagnostics of algorithm implementation. The first level algorithm detects position of part, its dimensions and edge disturbances. The second algorithm detects any defects inside of a part. The basic algorithm is presented only for circular shape with red color texture, but can be easily extended to other basic shapes by shape detector.
