Abstract
A method and a device for inspecting surface coatings on workpieces, in particular of lacquer coatings, using an image capture and/or image processing system. The image capture and/or image processing system is designed to measure and/or process electromagnetic radiation from surface coating and/or a layer beneath it which is at least partially outside of the visible wavelength range.
Claims12
A device for inspecting a surface coating on a workpiece, comprising:
- at least one of an image capture system and an image processing system adapted to at least one of measure and process electromagnetic radiation from at least one of the surface coating and a layer beneath the surface coating, the electromagnetic radiation being at least partly outside of the visible wavelength range.
A method for inspecting a surface coating on a workpiece, comprising:
- at least one of detecting and processing, using at least one of an image capture system and an image processing system, electromagnetic radiation from at least one of the surface coating and a layer beneath the surface coating, the electromagnetic radiation being at least partially outside of the visible wavelength range.
