Featured Tools: Image Stitching and various Line Gauge tools.

This application demo features a needle inspection application where a PPT9200 (1600X1200 pixels) high resolution camera is used to measure the needle length and insertion depth. This application requires a 15-micron repeatability, with 100+ product types ranging from 25mm to 125mm in length. Up to 9 images along the length of the needle were taken and stitched together before the final measurement is taken. The flexibility and power available in the IMPACT software allow for the necessary logic configuration to implement an effective part recipe management scheme to accommodate frequent part change over. This application is installed at B. Braun Medical located in Penang, Malaysia by AVI Technology Sdn. Bhd., one of PPT VISION's partners in Malaysia.

Two Cameras Inspecting Rotating Glass Vials

This solution uses two IMPACT T20 Intelligent Cameras to measure the critical dimensions of medicinal glass vials moving at a rate of 90 vials per minute. The IMPACT vision system also insures the quality of dark rings and dots printed on the vials. The cameras are self-triggered so images can be taken when the vials are rotated at different positions.
