Part Flaw Detection
Challenge
In the manufacturing of electronic components, there needs to be an accurate and cost-effective method to ensure that there are no bent or missing connectors, and to make sure that the electronic component is correctly oriented; that is, not flipped upside-down.
Solution
To verify an electronic component like that shown, an image of a good part was captured using an iVu Series
sensor configured for a Match inspection. If the sensor detects a part with a bent or missing connector, or if the part is wrong side up, the sensor sends a fail output to the line, and the part is rejected.
