Single bobbin camera control using multilabel scanning solution

Test stations by AUTFORCE

Capture up to 120 individual bobbins in just one second?
No problem thanks to multi-label scanning!

The project

For our customer we were allowed to implement a camera inspection system for the inspection of single bobbins. Bobbins are rolls of paper that are wound on a core. These are marked with barcodes and are scanned by 14 cameras at a camera inspection station. The image processing software evaluates the resulting images and classifies the barcode according to predefined criteria. The test station is a huge time saver for our customer. Previously, the robot had to move to the position with each picked-up part individually to check whether the correct number of bobbins had been picked up.

Keyfacts

  • A stack of approx. 120 bobbins can be photographed within one second
  • Analysis of the stack within 5 seconds
  • Diameter of the bobbins: 450 – 600 mm
  • Inspection performance: 8,000,000 barcodes per year

Process

A stack of approximately 120 individual bobbins is carried to the transfer station via a transfer system. When reaching this position, they are picked up by a 6-axis robot. It positions the bobbins at a defined distance from the camera test frame. The camera system will now read the barcodes on the bobbins. In the final step, the bobbins are stacked on a transport pallet with the help of a robot.
