OverviewThe inspection conveyor is designed for automated visual inspection of products placed on a belt by a robot, primarily for plastics and similar industries. The system inspects products from two sides and identifies surface defects. It is modular and configurable (single-sided or additional sides) to match production requirements.
Key features- Two-sided inspection: product rotation enables camera inspection of both faces to improve defect detection.
- AI evaluation: ArgutrackDNN performs automated image analysis to reduce manual review.
- Automated transport and control: products are fed on the first belt for initial inspection; cameras are mounted in protective aluminium housings.
- Automated sorting: conforming parts continue on the line while defective parts are automatically rejected.
- Complete electronics: industrial-grade motors and cameras ensure steady, accurate operation.
- Aluminium structure: lightweight, rigid frame for durability and handling.
- Mobility: mounted on wheels for easy repositioning within the production area.
- Simple installation: plug-and-play electrical connection; configurable per inspection needs.
- Standard evaluation speed: ~50 ms per image.
- Drive: two motors driving two belts.
- Control: Neousys industrial computer (IPC) with GPU for real-time image processing.
- Integrated lighting: dedicated illumination for consistent imaging conditions.
