Vision Sensors Eliminate Rejection of Good Parts in Inspecting Wheel Fasteners

One of Maclean Vehicle Systems’ (MVS’s) many automotive fastener products is stainless steel capped wheel nuts. The nuts are assembled on an index machine that processes two parts simultaneously at each station. The fasteners must be inspected to verify the nuts are properly threaded. MVS previously performed this fastener inspection with an eddy current sensor whose accuracy was less than desired, at times resulting in expensive over-sort.

“We looked at a number of different vision sensors,” said TJ Konieczke, Manufacturing Controls Engineer for MVS. “Some were sensitive, intimidating and had a high learning curve like the vision systems that we have used in the past. We selected Cognex Checker® vision sensors because they are very easy to program and operate. We simply put them in place, connect a PC to the USB port, train them on the part to be inspected, and pick tools off a menu that inspect the critical features of the part.”
Konieczke mounted two Cognex Checker 101 vision sensors looking down at a 45 degree angle about five inches from the two parts in the inspection station of the assembly machine. The parts are presented to the inspection station in a fixture and held in position by a spring-loaded keeper, so there is some variability in the height at which they are positioned. Konieczke set up the vision sensor by dragging inspection tools and dropping them onto the features that he wanted to inspect. First, he addressed the variable placement of the part by using an edge finder tool to locate the edge of the part. Then he picked a brightness tool to look for the light reflecting off the threads.
He then set up the vision sensor to interface with the programmable logic controller (PLC) that operates the assembly machine. The PLC provides a static output that indicates when a fixture is in position with two new parts. When the vision sensor receives this signal it captures an image and inspects the part. The vision sensor then sends an output to the PLC indicating that the part is either good or bad. Based on the inspection results, the PLC determines whether to send the part to the pass or fail bin.

Most recently, MVS has standardized new applications on the Cognex Checker 232 vision sensor that provides high resolution and a wide field of view to inspect small features up to 1,600 parts per minute.

The ability of the vision sensor to determine the position of the part and evaluate the brightness of the entire opening of the nut as opposed to an individual point evaluated by a traditional sensor has eliminated incorrect pass/fail decisions. The elimination of sorting costs quickly paid for the new vision sensor. The vision sensor has also increased confidence that not a single bad part will be shipped to the customer. “The latest generation of vision sensors is much more reliable and accurate while being just as easy to set up and operate and not much more expensive than traditional sensors,” Konieczke concluded.

Baumar Sensors help to keep food High tech and hygiene

Hygienic safety and optimized production, processing, storage, filling and bottling processes: food and beverage production is a very complex matter. And with our unique and extremely wide portfolio, we are optimally prepared for this tricky process. In the long food processing chain from raw material to the retail market, Baumer sensors provide valuable support in many places.

For example, Machine Vision System By Baumer Sernsors refined the principle of frequency deviation technology for level measuring. The functional principle here exploits the fact that every material, regardless of its consistency, has a a particular permeability for electrical fields, so it is possible to distinguish media reliably and replace the vibrating fork principle which is more susceptible to errors.

The list of possible applications is long: Baumer sensors perform pressure, temperature and level measurement tasks during food processing with great precision. Baumer offers reliable aids for food packaging, filling or storage as well as for quality control.

Glitch-free brewery process despite foam and sticky media

 With Baumer's CleverLevel, the clever alternative to the vibrating fork, process stoppage is a thing of the past. Do you experience overflow issues in your excess yeast tanks due to the sensor not detecting foam? Or does foam in your CIP caustic tank cause overflow issues or even cause pumps to run dry? Baumer offers you the perfect solution with CleverLevel. Universally usable for all types of media. Installed as high and low limits throughout the complete brewing process from raw barley storage to maturation.

Baumar Sensor Application in Brewery – Food and Beverage Industry


  • Foam overflow protection in the yeast tank

CleverLevel ignores or detects foam which allows for reliable filling of the caustic CIP tank. The PEEK sensor tip is resistant to all cleaning medias used during CIP and supplied with in a robust stainless steel housing resistant to high pressure cleaning.


Baumer Sernsors - CleverLevel

Always the right level detection – the vibrating fork alternative.

Since pasty materials are prone to stick to these forks, it can often cause measuring errors when vibation level switches are used. Coarse granular media such as grains can easily become lodged between the forks and also cause measuring errors. Moreover, not only are the forks difficult to clean, but liquid and powder substances even require different fork designs. With the sensors of the CleverLevel switch, no media remnants or solids are able to accumulate on the sensors. A precise and reliable level detection is thus ensured even under difficult
circumstances.

For More Information Related to 3-CCD Colour Line Scan thCameras and how it can help in your Industry Contact Us @ (+ 91) 22 67993158

Major Colour line scan technologies

The principle of color line scan cameras can be explained by making an analogy with a well known piece of office equip- ment: the fax machine. When capturing an image, the x-axis is created by the line of pixels in the image sensor and the y-axis is created by the movement of the object. To provide the same aspect ratio in both x- and y-direction, systems based on line scan typically have an encoder to provide the desired line increments. Alternatively the speed of the object is maintained at a known and constant speed.

Today there are two major technologies used for color line scan cameras: tri-linear and 3CCD (or 3-chip). Both employ the same basic principle. Each color band (Red, Green and Blue) is captured with the full resolution of the imager. The major difference is that the tri-linear sensor scans the color bands in different physical planes, whereas the 3CCD solution scans through the same optical axis.

Insuring Perfect Geometry

Inspection system by GEFRA GmbH controls and sorts metal and plastic parts such as stamping parts, bushings, standing parts with internal threads or screws. Modular digital cameras from Allied Vision allow for flexible inspection.
In industries such as the automotive or aerospace industry, even the smallest manufacturing flaw can stop production, generating costs in millions of dollars. This is one reason why these industries put extremely high quality requirements on their suppliers, often expecting proven 0 ppm (zero defect parts out of one million). The only way for suppliers to guarantee such a high level of quality is to perform a 100% inspection of the parts before delivery. A task that only a smart image processing system can achieve in an economical way.

GEFRA GmbH of Germany has gained a worldwide reputation as a leading provider of inspection systems. The majority of GEFRA customers are suppliers of the major automotive sub-contractors and the aerospace industry. "Variants of our Optisort series are in use in many countries around the globe and ensure that the inspected fasteners reliably meet requirements", says Thomas Rothweiler, founder and managing partner of the company proudly. "Our equipment must therefore meet the highest demands in terms of reliability", underlines Rothweiler.

The majority of objects inspected with GEFRA Optisort units are metal components in the so-called fastener sector, such as screws, nuts or disks. Plastic components, release pins for airbags or a selection of sealing caps are also checked for geometric and surface characteristics by the company's automated machines.

This wide variety also has its perils as Rothweiler explains: "Every new part to be tested is always accompanied by certain challenges. This starts with the feeding technique, continues with automated handling and ends with the changing demands for machine vision, a key element in all our inspection processes."

According to Rothweiler, the injection gates often present a problem with injection molded components, as they can vary considerably in terms of geometry. "Such effects can turn into a real challenge for material flow and optical inspection", says the GEFRA founder. "Reliable detection of scratches or coating faults, i.e. on metal disks, is usually not easy to accomplish at the speeds required."

Applications of Frame Grabber Cards!

A frame grabber is generally an electronic device  that catches individual, digital still frames from an analog video signal or a digital video stream. Being hired as a component of a computer vision system, the video frames are captured in digital form and then displayed, stored or transmitted.

Earlier, frame grabbers had less memory so they store a single digitized video. Whereas modern frame grabbers can store multiple frames also. Modern Frame Grabber performs functions beyond capturing a single video input.

Frame grabbers are essential to connect the analog cameras used in this application to the computers that store or process the images. Day/night security cameras are also popular in this field.

Industrial Barcode Reader


With technology reaching its heights it is now possible by an electronic device that can read and output printed barcodes to a computer known as Barcode Scanner or Barcode Reader. Long gone are the days of dealing with decoder boxes and multiple cables going everywhere. Because of this technology i.e the invention of industrial Barcode Scanner, it is used by simply plugging the cable into the scanner and PC and you're up and running! A Barcode Scanner consists of a light source, a lens and a light sensor translating optical impulses into electrical ones. Adding to it, many barcode scanners nowadays includes decoder circuitry analyzing the barcode's image data provided by the sensor and sending the barcode's content to the scanner's output port.

Features of Industrial Barcode Scanner
  • Durability - Industrial Barcode Readers are scanners that have been designed with an eye towards durability.
  • Inhibition - Dusty, damp environments can often inhibit a scanner's life-span, and therefore, is your investment.
  • Rubberised Versions - Most Industrial Scanner are simply rubberized versions of standard scanner models, or else they have enclosures designed to resist dust and moisture, and provide much greater impact resistance.

Applications of Infrared Cameras in Industries

The intensity of heat is very important in our lives as it is used for many applications like checking illness, to regulate whether the food is cooked properly or not in case to check your Car is overheating or not. Infrared Cameras also known as Thermal imaging Cameras takes the measuring temperature to next level as previously while measuring the temperature you used to get numbers and now you get a picture showing temperature differences of a surface.


What is thermography?
Thermography is a technique for producing an image of invisible infrared light emitted by objects with the use of a thermal imaging camera. Thermal imaging cameras provide rapid scanning of a surface that is nondestructive and environmentally friendly, which allows for quick detection of potential problems or defects that will reduce troubleshooting time and preventative maintenance. 

What does Infrared Cameras visualize?
The truth is thermal Imaging Cameras (Infrared Cameras) don’t actually visualise anything.  Alternatively, they capture the infrared (IR) energy transfer from an object to its environment and produce a real-time image in a color palette where hotter objects appear brighter and cooler objects appear darker. Infrared energy is generated by the vibration of atoms and molecules and behaves similarly to visible light where it can be reflected, refracted, absorbed and emitted. The more these atoms and molecules move, the higher the temperature of the object.
