The latest progress in the field of optics and microelectronics resulted in the development of new generation vision systems capable of scanning surface topography with very high sampling frequencies. The blue color of illuminating light as well as novel systems for controlling ultra-thin laser line thickness allows the measurement of the porous surface of wood with a triangulation method. Three alternative sensors were tested here in order to verify their suitability for the determination of surface topography in the industrial environment. The scanning head was installed at the exit zone of the four-side profiling moulder and was set to scrutinize the wood surface shape line-by-line, immediately after profiling. The sensor was also tested for automatic detection of surface defects appearing on the elements after sanding, wetting and painting with various finishing products. The set of pilot test results is presented, together with an original algorithm for real-time surface defects detection.

This paper presents an on-line surface defects detection system based on machine vision, which has high speed architecture and can perform high accurate detection for cold-rolled aluminum plate. The system consists of high speed camera and industrial personal computer (IPC) array which connected through Gigabit Ethernet, achieved seamless detection by redundant control. In order to acquire high processing speed, single IPC as processor receives from and deals with only one or two cameras' image. Experimental results show that the system with high accurate detection capability can satisfy the requirement of real time detection and find out the defects on the production line effectively.

AbstractOptical interferometry is a powerful tool for measuring and characterizing areal surface topography in precision manufacturing. A variety of instruments based on optical interferometry have been developed to meet the measurement needs in various applications, but the existing techniques are simply not enough to meet the ever-increasing requirements in terms of accuracy, speed, robustness, and dynamic range, especially in on-line or on-machine conditions. This paper provides an in-depth perspective of surface topography reconstruction for optical interferometric measurements. Principles, configurations, and applications of typical optical interferometers with different capabilities and limitations are presented. Theoretical background and recent advances of fringe analysis algorithms, including coherence peak sensing and phase-shifting algorithm, are summarized. The new developments in measurement accuracy and repeatability, noise resistance, self-calibration ability, and computational efficiency are discussed. This paper also presents the new challenges that optical interferometry techniques are facing in surface topography measurement. To address these challenges, advanced techniques in image stitching, on-machine measurement, intelligent sampling, parallel computing, and deep learning are explored to improve the functional performance of optical interferometry in future manufacturing metrology.

Until now, surface defects of continuous casting slab have been removed by the enforced surface scarfing to produce high quality steel materials. An evaluation technique for surface and internal defects of slab is required to enhance the production of medium carbon steels and acquire defect-map. Accordingly as a preliminary step, longitudinal wave testing and Rayleigh wave testing were carried out on slab specimens of medium carbon steel to get basic transmission characteristics of ultrasonic waves. This research provides as basic data for on-line defect estimation using a laser ultrasonic or EMAT in non-contact ultrasonic detecting techniques in future.
