Advantages of machine vision inspection systems in the industrial automation industry

   What are the advantages of machine vision inspection systems in the industrial automation industry? Let’s find out together below.

1. Accuracy and repeatability: Due to the physical limitations of the human eye, machines have obvious advantages in terms of accuracy. Even though the human eye relies on a magnifying glass or microscope to inspect a product, a machine is still more precise because it is capable of precision down to a thousandth of an inch. The machine can complete the inspection work in the same way again and again without getting tired. In contrast, the human eye will examine a product slightly differently each time, even if it is exactly the same.

2. Speed and cost: Machines can inspect products faster. Especially when detecting high-speed moving objects, such as on a production line, the machine can improve production efficiency. Since machines are faster than people, one automatic inspection machine can take on the tasks of several people. Moreover, the machine does not need to stop, will not get sick, and can work continuously, so it can greatly improve production efficiency. There is another fatal flaw in human eye detection, which is the subjectivity caused by emotions. The detection results will change according to the worker's mood. However, since the machine has no emotions, the detection results are naturally very impressive and reliable.

Because the machine vision inspection system can quickly obtain a large amount of information, is easy to process automatically, and is easy to integrate with design information and processing control information, therefore, in the modern automated production process, machine vision inspection systems are widely used for working condition monitoring, Finished product inspection and quality control and other areas. The characteristic of machine vision inspection system is to improve the flexibility and automation of production.

In some dangerous working environments that are not suitable for manual work or in situations where artificial vision cannot meet the requirements, machine vision inspection is often used to replace artificial vision. At the same time, in large-scale industrial production processes, using artificial vision to inspect product quality is inefficient and inaccurate. High, using machine vision inspection methods can greatly improve production efficiency and production automation. It is also easy to realize information integration and is the basic technology for realizing computer integrated manufacturing.
