Abstract
Advances in industrial machine vision and PC technology are finding their way into a new generation of video inspection systems for steel mills. New image capture hardware, including digital video cameras and digital storage systems, combined with more powerful drivers and software, are upgrading current camera and inspection stations to allow inspectors to see more. Stroboscopic Lights, proven to effectively and economically reduce scrap and rejection rates, are now being teamed with new video technology. The results allow inspectors to more efficiently see various points in the rolling process from one location. The new upgrades have created systems capable of recording detailed images with fewer cameras and providing more detailed playback expanding the advantages already established. The new equipment continues to rely on ever- present strobe light systems whose capabilities keep pace with today’s technological advances. The marriage of proven stroboscopic visual inspection to state of the art mega-pixel image acquisition and viewing hardware now enables mill personnel make even greater use of their experience to find defects as small as 1 to 2mm from a distance of 2 to 2.5 meters.
