Abstract

Crack detection on panels during manufacturing process is an important step for ensuring the product quality. The accuracy and efficiency of traditional crack detection methods, which are performed by eye inspection, are dependent on human inspectors. Therefore, implementation of an on-line and precise crack detection is required during the panel pressing process. In this paper, a regular CCTV camera system is utilized to obtain images of panel products and an image process based crack detection technique is developed. This technique uses a comparison between the base image and a test image using an amplitude mapping of the local image. Experiments are performed in the laboratory and in the actual manufacturing lines to evaluate the performance of the developed technique. Experimental results indicate that the proposed technique could be used to effectively detect a crack on panels with high speed.

프레스 공정은 제품의 대량 생산에 주로 사용되며, 제품의 생산관리를 위해 공정 중 발생하는 제품 결함 탐지는 중요하다. 결함 탐지를 위해 검출자의 육안을 통한 검출 방법이 주로 사용되고 있으나, 이 방법은 검출자에 따라 정확도 및 효율이 크게 좌우된다. 따라서 검출자의 영향을 받지 않고 일정 이상의 검출 능력을 갖춘 자동검출시스템이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 프레스 라인의 영상촬영시스템을 활용하여 공정 중 패널이미지를 획득 및 패널 결함검출기법을 개발하였다. 결함이 없는 제품이미지를 기저이미지로 선정한 뒤, 이미지 내 외곽라인 요소들에 대한 히스토그램을 이용하여 결함이 존재하는 패널이미지와 비교를 통해 결함검출을 수행하였다. 또한 실험실 및 실제 프레스 라인 실험을 통하여 신뢰성을 확인하였다. 실험 결과 프레스 공정 중 생기는 패널의 크랙결함에 대한 탐지가 가능하였으며 추후 이미지 처리의 가속화 및 최적화 진행 시, 검출률 및 검출 속도 향상시 현장 적용 가능함을 확인하였다.
