Error proofing and quality control for split/scratch detection
The detection and measurement of scratches on automotive stamping parts along with split defect detection are major challenges that require the development and implementation of advanced sensing.
Challenge
Difficultly detecting cracks and fractures after stamping
Scratches can occur during stamping and can negatively affect the quality and appearance of the final product. Detecting and measuring these scratches require advanced sensing technologies and techniques. Similarly, the detection of split defects in automotive stamping parts is also a significant challenge. Split defects are cracks or fractures that occur in the sheet metal during the stamping process. These defects can compromise the structural integrity of the part.
Solution
FH vision system with AI scratch detection filter
Omron FH Series vision system is a compact, yet powerful solution for advanced quality inspection, identification and positioning applications. One of its key features is the AI scratch detection filter, which highlights scratches on different surface types without the need for manual adjustment or learning from images. This AI-based defect detection allows manufacturers to identify scratches with human-like sensitivity.

AI Filter | FH-series Vision System
OMRON is using artificial intelligence to reproduce the visual sensitivity and experience of human inspectors. The AI filter detects scratches with human-like sensitivity. Using an AI filter equipped with defect extraction technology, only the points that are estimated to be scratches with be automatically extracted. The AI algorithms extract the scratch itself, rather than the definition based on colour and brightness. This makes defect detection much more stable flaw. The AI filter eliminates missed defects and AI Fine Matching avoids overdetection almost entirely. No special environment construction or expertise required. OMRON offers the best combination of camera and controller for your inspection systems in terms of precision, speed and cost. The FH-series vision system reproduces human sensibility and experience with AI technology. Learn more about FH-series Vision System here: Learn more about FH Smart Cameras here:
