Do you know how to choose the right 3D vision product?

Last time we talked about where 3D vision must be used, and what workpieces can be processed by 3D vision, today let's walk into the real production site to discuss how to solve the impact of complex environments on machine vision imaging, and how to solve the process requirements of each station? Let's keep talking!

3. What is the impact of the environment on the 3D vision system

3D vision system is the eyes and brain of the robot, to accompany the robot into thousands of industries of the manufacturing site, in the face of complex environment and changes, a qualified vision product needs to have good environmental adaptability, to ensure reliable and stable operation in the vast majority of industrial sites, or not due to environmental factors to increase the owner's deployment cost investment, and have replicability.

Different lighting conditions

• We often encounter multilight strip workshops, such as some workshops with relatively closed structures, especially when dealing with reflective workpieces, the light hits the surface of the workpiece, which will aggravate the degree of reflection;

• Multilight transmission belt workshop, window station is a common machining, assembly production environment, day between day, light morning and evening, four seasons change, often need users to erect shading and light filling facilities, or need operators to frequently modify the visual system parameter settings, very inconvenient, and prone to errors;

  
  

• The basis of visual imaging technology is optics, and the selection of appropriate optical components, supplemented by complete algorithm blessings, and no fear of the influence of ambient light can truly allow robots to open their "eyes" and practice flexible manufacturing. So, when we are in the above strong light, large changes in light, insufficient light and other environments, how to choose?

At present, ALSONTECH has the only binocular laser 3D vision sensor product line AT-S1000-0XA in China. We can cover the vast majority of workpieces and stack sizes, and have good adaptability to changes in the lighting environment, not only the reflective workpieces can be well identified, but also the reflection caused by the light can also be adapted (such as the high reflection produced by the black paint surface under the light). Not only that, we have upgraded AT-S1000-0XC series grating structured light products,

which can meet the minimum illumination of 50,000LUX complete imaging, and meet the needs of indoor, light band, and window stations.

A variety of products represent a variety of choices, we hope to help users with minimal investment, achieve rapid landing of functions, and create maximum output, avoid the secondary construction of shading sheds, blackout rooms, fill lights and other facilities, further reduce investment, and quickly recover costs.

Different temperature and humidity conditions

3D vision sensors are highly integrated optical sensors composed of precision electrical components, and changes in temperature and humidity have different effects on the sensor:

•In a high temperature environment, the system may be shut down or damaged due to overheating and untimely heat dissipation;

•In low temperature environments, the lens will produce fog, blocking the field of view and affecting the data acquisition effect;

•If the temperature changes greatly, the electronic components will produce temperature drift phenomenon, and the internal parameters will change, which will affect the accuracy of data acquisition;

•If the humidity is too large, if the sealing design is not in place, it will cause corrosion of components and reduce the service life of the product.

Not all production environments are satisfactory, especially aerospace and military industry, construction, steel, agriculture and animal husbandry, chemical processing, port transportation, cold chain transportation and other industries, must solve the problem of automation in harsh environments, which requires visual products to have the ability to cope with different temperature and humidity changes, and can operate continuously and stably in such an environment to ensure the accuracy of data collection. As a professional 3D vision solution provider, we also have a unique solution!

At the same time, if users choose the production method of human-machine collaboration, we also have lightweight, small size, high precision, and protection level up to IP67 high-protection products, which can expand more application scenarios for collaborative robots and composite robots.

4. 3D vision application scene

Recruitment difficulties, quality requirements, capacity improvement, more and more manufacturing enterprises realize that they need to automate transformation, new production lines, old station transformation, put forward specific requirements for robots and vision.

Combined with years of R&D and delivery experience, currently.3DThe application of vision is mainly concentrated in the following process scenarios:

• Loading and unloading positioning guidance

• Depalletizing and mixed palletizing

• High-precision assembly positioning guidance

• Automatic path planning guidance such as gluing, welding, and grinding

• Vision measurement

• Vision inspection

We believe that this is just the beginning, with the advancement of automation transformation process, with the development of 3D vision technology and algorithms, I believe that more application process scenarios will be developed.

ALSONTECH's mission is to promote the application of 3D vision systems in the global industrial field, we have always been to make "good products" as our own responsibility, always believe that quality will be the lifelong advertising of the enterprise. How to choose a suitable 3D vision product, I believe that for the pursuit of industrial quality manufacturing users, easy to use, durable, can effectively solve problems will always be in the first place, complete service, more cost-effective price system, is also we have been insisting on the output to users.
