2D size, position and shape definition of defects by B-scan image analysis
2015
The non-destructive evaluation of defects by automatic procedures is of great importance for structural components. Thanks to the developments of the non-contact ultrasonic techniques, the automation of the inspections is gaining a progressively important role. In this work, an automatic inspection technique for the evaluation of defects by the analysis of B-scan images obtained by a laser ultrasonic system is presented. The data are extracted directly from a B-scan map obtained for a panel with internal defects, and are used to build an image of the cross section of the panel. The proposed automatic procedure allows the definition of size, position and shape of defects in panels of known t…
Vision system for defect imaging, detection, and characterization on a specular surface of a 3D object
2002
Abstract A vision system capable of imaging, detecting, and characterizing defects onto highly reflective, non-plane surfaces, is presented in this paper. Defects are typically dust, and hair located under the metallic layer of packaging products used in cosmetic industries. The vision system comprises an innovative lighting solution to reveal defects onto highly reflective non-plane surfaces. Several image acquisitions are performed to build a synthetic image, where defects clearly appear white on a mid-gray background. Our lighting system allows imaging defects on various-shaped objects. The vision system measures the defect size to make a decision on the product rejection. The authors as…
