“I am looking for a camera that rejects parts with incorrect drill-holes.” Every day, machine vision providers receive such inquiries. Often, prospective customers are surprised at the answer: “Sorry, but cameras can’t do that.”
How fast is fast? What does it mean to have a fast laser sensor? Either it measures, or it doesn’t, right? It depends what is meant by measure. Is the operator looking to measure a specific point on the part, high point, low point or get an average?
In designing an industrial machine vision system, one of the most important decisions is whether to use a digital or analog camera. Each has advantages and limitations. But in the final analysis, the choice will be based on cost and certain key operating factors. When these factors are considered, one technology or the other will emerge as the clear favorite.
German automobiles stand worldwide for high quality down to the smallest detail. “There is no second chance for a first impression” is the motto of German engineers and designers. And in fact, perceived quality is a big factor in the decision to purchase a vehicle. The precise fit of body parts, such as doors, with the smallest and most uniform gaps possible, plays a decisive role. That makes the requirements of automotive manufacturers’ production processes all the higher.
