What is a Vision System and How is it Used For Quality Control?
Vision inspection systems (sometimes referred to as machine vision systems) provide image-based inspection automated for your convenience for a variety of industrial and manufacturing applications. Though not a new technology, 2D and 3D machine vision systems are now commonly used for automated inspection, robot guidance, quality control and sorting, and much more. These intelligent inspection systems come equipped with a camera or multiple cameras, and even video and lighting. Vision systems are capable of measuring parts, verifying parts are in the correct position, and recognizing the shape of parts. Also, vision systems can measure and sort parts at high speeds. Computer software processes images captured during the process you are trying to assess to capture data. The vision system can be intelligent enough to make decisions that impact the function you are trying to assess, often in a pass/fail capacity to trigger an operator to act. These systems can be embedded into your lines to provide a constant stream of information.
