Deep learning AI system detects glass surface imperfections and defects

With the increasingly stringent requirements of users for the quality of glass film, more and more manufacturers are focusing on the surface quality of glass.

Glass defects, chipping, scratches, creases, texture, poor protective film, light leakage, oil accumulation, orange peel, etching chipping, scratches, pockmarks, black spots, crystal spots, impurities, inclusions, lines, black spots, gel appearance defects for the main defects on the glass surface, very small imperfections will affect the quality of the product.

At present, traditional production-oriented enterprises use the human eye to detect defects, but due to the high cost of manual inspection, easy to fatigue and the human eye can not be detected in the high-speed operation of the production line, so the traditional human eye inspection can not meet the requirements of high-quality production processes.

Intsoft Technology (glass defects deep learning AI inspection system) can be high-speed, accurate online defect detection, and combined with on-site processing online alarms, reports and statistics and product classification processing, to ensure product quality for enterprises to provide effective solutions.

The industrial line array CCD camera is set up above the production line, and at the same time adopts high brightness LED linear spotlight cold light source for backlighting, through the line array CCD camera and high-speed image processing system for real-time online scanning. When defects appear on the surface of the glass, strong light passes through the glass, and at the same time, the CCD captures the surface image through the image processing system to discover and obtain image information of surface defects. The system automatically records the defect image, location and other information, and at the same time through signal control to realize the marking machine on the defect in automatic labeling and positioning.

Line array CCD camera via the encoder connected to the amplitude drive axis triggered to obtain image information of the amplitude. The CCD camera resolution, longitudinal line sweep frequency and other properties to determine the acquisition accuracy of the system, high system accuracy, image data processing large amounts of data after high-speed processing to retain the glass surface defects of the data information (size, diameter, horizontal and vertical position) and control the output of the computer system through the database. The computer system records and manages information such as the specific location, size and image of defects.
