Main Features

Vision system for quality control of glass sheets

Our system is specifically designed to control the quality of glass sheets, identifying various defects both internal and external.


Interfacing with pre-installed lines (Profinet, Modbus, etc.)

Compatible with the most popular industrial communication protocols, such as Profinet And Modbus, the system integrates easily into existing production lines.


Prepared for Industry 4.0

Designed to be an integral part of modern smart production lines, it is fully Industry 4.0 ready, enabling advanced data management and connectivity.


Interfacing with IoT systems

The system is also able to interface with IoT platforms, allowing continuous and remote monitoring of production and quality parameters.


Info

Regulation of the Rooms

Camera rotation and realignment system for centering on the plate and illuminator

The system's cameras are equipped with a rotation and realignment function that allows for perfect centering on the glass panes. This precision ensures optimal scanning and a clear view, even in difficult lighting conditions, thanks to the backlight illuminator.


Info

Quality Control of Glass Sheets

Our system detects a wide range of defects that can compromise the quality of glass, including:

  • Edge defects: fractures or convexities at the ends of the plate.
  • Pecks, breakages: surface fractures that can affect the strength of the glass.
  • Dirt stains, tin: surface imperfections that reduce the transparency and aesthetic quality of the product.
  • Rubber scraps, oxidation, shading: impurities that compromise the precision of the machining.
  • Plastic bubbles: inclusions of air or materials inside the glass.
  • Dimensional defects: plate out of tolerance for dimensions, which does not meet the required standards.
  • Spiderweb: superficial microfractures that branch out like a spider's web, compromising both the aesthetics and the strength of the slab.

Info

Essential Features of the System

Linear Cameras: CCD Sensors for Detailed Images of Glass

The line cameras mounted in the system are equipped with monochrome CCD sensors, capable of capturing extremely detailed images of the glass, identifying defects that would otherwise be invisible to the human eye.

Lighting System: Backlight illuminator to highlight glass defects

The backlight illuminator provides uniform illumination, highlighting internal and external defects, thus improving the system's reliability in detecting even the smallest problems.

Intelligent Software: Processes images, differentiates defects and returns a result to the PLC

The system's advanced software processes images in real time, differentiating between different types of defects and providing accurate diagnoses to the PLC control system. This process is essential for continuous and efficient quality control.


Info

Profile and Defect Control

The system not only detects surface defects, but is also able to analyze profiles And dimensions, identifying any out-of-tolerance scrap. Both external and internal defects can be thoroughly inspected, ensuring that each sheet of glass meets the highest quality standards.


Info

System Components

Line cameras with monochrome sensors: for accurate defect detection.

PC, UPS and backlight illuminator: to ensure continuity and stability during operation.

Image acquisition encoder: which perfectly synchronizes data collection with glass scanning.

Anti-vibration system: which reduces mechanical vibrations, improving the quality of the acquired images.


Info

Advanced Features

Total control and flexibility: enable/disable controls as needed

The system is highly flexible and can be customized according to production needs. The various quality controls They can be activated or deactivated based on the project specifications or the characteristics of the product to be monitored.
