Imagechecker PV310 – The high-speed successor of the A series

PV310

Micro-Imagechecker

Provided with a special digital signal
processor, which makes the system 10
times faster.
The powerful contour matching checker
and the flaw detection checker
complement the existing checkers.
360-degree rotation inspection provides
a big variety of inspection solutions.
The improved user interface and the
use of a VGA monitor makes it user-
friendly to configure the system.

Remark: so far no OCR/OCV available

Gray-scale Window

• Calculates the average gray-scale value within the

checker area.

• Gray-scale Window checkers are often used to detect

brightness variations.

Imagechecker PV series – 11 image-processing tools (checkers)

Binary Edge Detection

• Binary edge-detection checkers calculate the x and y

coordinates of edges in an image.

• The detected coordinates can be used for measuring objects.

• Binary edge-detection checkers are faster than the gray-scale

edge-detection checkers, but they have a lower accuracy of
measurement because of the binary calculation.

Gray-scale Edge Detection

• Gray-scale edge-detection checkers

calculate the x and y coordinates of
edges within in an image.

• Accuracy of measurement: 3 subpixels

Example of an application:

Measurement of the air space
between two contacts of a relay

Panasonic Electric Works Europe AG

Panasonic Vision Systems

Imagechecker PV series – 11 image-processing tools (checkers)

Feature Extraction

• This checker calculates the number of detected objects

within the checker area. For each detected object, the
checker also calculates its area size, its center of gravity,
its angle of the main inertia axis.

Panasonic Electric Works Europe AG

Panasonic Vision Systems

Imagechecker PV series – 11 image-processing tools (checkers)

Smart Matching

• First, the system has been trained with an OK sample as the

pattern. Then the smart matching checker searches for a similar
pattern within the checker area.

• This clever checker is able to distinguish between accepted and

not accepted variations of the trained pattern and the detected
pattern.

• Valid rotation of the pattern:

± 180°

Contour Matching

• First, the system has been trained with an OK sample as the

pattern. Then the contour matching checker searches for similar
contours within the checker area.

• Valid rotation of the contour:

± 180°

Panasonic Vision Systems

Imagechecker PV series – 11 image-processing tools (checkers)

Flaw Detection

• High-speed visual inspection for slightest scratches, chipping,

foreign substances, etc.

• High-speed inspection of small burrs, chips, etc., even for

molded products with an uneven surface.

Imagechecker PV series – 11 image-processing tools (checkers)

Position/Rotation Adjustment

• The position adjustment is used for moving the checker

shape to the current position of the inspected object.

• With the help of smart matching or contour matching it

is possible to detect rotations of 360°of the objec t.
