Company Profile
Keye Technology relies on the Keye Laboratory of Pattern
Recognition of the University of Science and Technology of China,
and has a high-level doctoral R&D team covering the entire
technology chain of optics, mechanics, electricity, computing and
software.
Through the project practice in the fields of packaging containers,
3C, medicine, textile, food, etc., the KVS-AI software and hardware
platform has been created, so that AI technology can be transformed
into real productivity. We provide visual imaging, algorithm
computing power and automatic control AI system solutions for
various sub-industries.
Inspection Principle
The packaging materials of glass bottles are becoming more and more
diversified, and the overall requirements for packaging
manufacturers are also constantly increasing. In particular, the
requirements for the geometric size and appearance quality of glass
bottles are becoming more stringent.
Due to the high temperature of the glass bottle production
environment, more than 80% of the inspection processes currently
used by most glass production companies are manual. The inspection
standards are not uniform, the efficiency is low, it is highly
influenced by subjectivity, and it is prone to errors. To change
these problems, automated machine vision inspection equipment needs
to be used to replace manual inspection.
Defects Type
| Cracks: The most common parts are the mouth, neck and shoulders of
the bottle. Cracks also often occur on the body and bottom of the
bottle |
| Uneven thickness: The main reason is that the temperature of the
glass droplets is uneven. The high-temperature part has low
viscosity and is easy to blow thin; the low-temperature part has
high resistance and is thicker |
| Deformation: If the bottom of the bottle is still soft, the marks
of the conveyor belt will be printed on it, making the bottom of
the bottle uneven |
| Protrusion: Defects in which the seam line of the glass bottle
protrudes or the edge of the mouth protrudes outward |
| Wrinkles: The main cause of wrinkles is that the gob is too cold
and the gob is too long. |
| Bubbles: Bubbles generated during the forming process are often
several large bubbles or several small bubbles gathered together |
Inspection Details
This solution is designed based on the actual workpiece conditions
on site, and visually inspects the geometric dimensions and
appearance defects of transparent glass bottles to replace manual
inspection work. The inspection system integrates visual optical
hardware, AI artificial intelligence inspection system software,
defective product rejection and counting devices. The inspection
equipment is connected and installed. The equipment can operate
7*24 hours a day, greatly improving production efficiency.
Equipment measurement size and appearance inspection adopt photo
identification inspection. One picture is collected for size
inspection, and more than 20 pictures can be collected for one
glass bottle for appearance defect inspection. The specific number
of collections will be determined according to the actual
inspection situation. After the system collects sample images, it
determines good and defective products through comparison and
analysis with the image processing software and standardized
samples. The defective products are detected and automatically
eliminated online. After the finished product is inspected, the
counting function can be realized, and the counting accuracy is
99.9%.
