Abstract
Systems and methods for identifying defects in manufacturing equipment are described. Camera-based image analysis can be used to improve product quality and reliability. Imagery of a machine surface can be repeatedly captured and analyzed by a processing device. Machine surfaces can be etched with landmarks to aid in removing distortion in imagery collected from the surfaces.
Claims19
A system to detect defects in a machine surface used to produce an electrode, the system comprising:
- at least one camera;
- and
- at least one processing device configured to detect a presence or absence of one or more defects in the machine surface using image input from the at least one camera.
A method of detecting a presence of defects in a machine surface used to produce an electrode, the method comprising:
- providing at least one machine surface used to produce an electrode;
- obtaining at least one image of the machine surface using at least one camera;
- and
- analyzing the image using at least one processing device to detect the presence of the defects.
