Vision-Based Deformation Measurement of Loaded Three-Ring Chain

Abstract:

The deformation measurement of loaded Three-Ring Chains is of great significance for production safety. In this study, a machine vision system for measuring deformation of loaded Three-Ring chains is developed. The measuring system uses a back diffuse light illumination and a CMOS industrial camera. A measurement algorithm based on sub-pixel edge extraction, contour segmentation, contour fitting is designed. The system can measure the long axis length of outer diameter (OLL) of the each ring of loaded three-ring chains. For the visual system, the absolute error is 0.004 mm, the standard deviation is 0.0024 mm. For the whole system, the absolute error is less than 0.015 mm, the relative error to the full-length of chain is less than 0.25 ‰, the relative error to the total amount of the stretching deformation is less than 2‰.
