Case Study of Automated Visual Inspection: Examples of Visual Inspection of Nuts and Legumes Using AI
An example of the automation of appearance inspection using AI to sort irregularly shaped nuts and legumes, including broken pieces and non-standard sizes!
Regarding the inspection of defective classification of nuts and legumes being transported on the line, would you consider switching from "visual inspection" to "automated inspection using cameras"? By installing cameras and lighting on the existing transport line and using AI in the analysis software, we will create a system to inspect whether any defects are present in the nuts and legumes during transport. With AI, it will also be possible to distinguish defects such as breaks, cracks, and out-of-spec sizes in nuts like almonds and walnuts, which are difficult to classify based on rules due to their varying shapes and sizes. 【Features of this system】 ■ Inspection can be conducted on the transport line without creating a separate inspection system. ■ Realization of image processing inspection equipment using AI. ■ Addressing defects that were difficult to detect with conventional inspection systems. ■ The equipment can be modified based on the inspection requirements. *First, we will verify whether the work desired by the customer can be inspected. *Detailed processing information and flow are included in the PDF.
basic information
"Do you have any such issues?" ■ There are cases where defects are overlooked due to visual confirmation by personnel. ■ It takes time to educate on the standards for visual inspection, making it difficult to secure inspectors. ■ We want to automate inspections, but we are worried about whether we can inspect our own products. Our uniquely developed inspection software "iVision" is a product we highly recommend for those considering the automation of visual inspections. "iVision" is a software-centered product that allows for full customization, enabling us to deliver according to our customers' wishes. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.
