Application Description
This application provides a low cost solution to inspect an electronic connector with high precision. The camera FOV covers approximately 1/6 of the length of the connector. During the inspection process, the connector moves to multiple indexes in the X direction so the camera can take different images to cover the entire part. Using the Multiple Image Stitch tool in IMPACT VPM, a larger image is constructed based on certain overlapping features. A datum is then established using the entire connector so measurements can be made accurately.
Application Highlights
- Measures pin/terminal height, pitch and coplanarity
- Accommodates up to 6 images per connector assembly
- Establishes a datum line using both ends of the connector assembly. Eliminating the need to fabricate a physical datum object that is visible in each camera view, hence reduce production cost
- Sophisticated CPM program allows users to setup a new part directly from the control panel
- Built-in image saving and loading capabilities makes setup and testing simple
- Multiple panels showing single snap as well as full view of the connector after all images a stitched together
