Abstract

This work presents a combined laser scanner and CCD-camera scanner system for automatic surface inspection of flat steel products. The system is capable of inspecting nearly all types of flat strip products (e.g., steel, non-ferrous metals, film, magnetic tape, textiles, paper) for surface defects. The evaluation electronics (EV1000) supports real-time processing and defect classification. The flexible, modular setup can adapt to different quality requirements and product types. Inspection data and defect summaries are presented to quality personnel and integrated into production controls for immediate action and improved product quality.
