Looking for a very small structured light emitter/camera setup for use in dusty outdoor conditions. Recommendations?


Hello, given the outdoor use of your setup you may benefit from using an IP-rated technology designed to work in tough environments. LMI 3D designs and builds laser technologies used in outdoor conditions (such as in road scanning applications). Please let us know if you still need help with your application. Thank you.

Hi there, I am looking for an inspection system to check tubular plastic injection moulded parts for defects, such as tears and air bubbles. This would need to check both the internal and external walls of the parts. What would you suggest would be the best solution?


Hello, thank you for posting your question. The technology that you could implement very much depends on the size of the parts that need to be inspected. If the internal diameter of your parts is very small you may have to find a very compact technology for this application. Defects such as the ones you mentioned (tears or air bubbles) will most likely cause a change in shape of your part, even if very minimal. This change in shape can be detected by a 3D laser sensor. Please let us know if you are still interested in finding a solution for this application. Thank you. Have a good day!

How can we detect an object that is the same color as the background?


Hello, with an application like yours you may want to implement a contrast invariant technology. Usually this can be done by using a 3D technology where you can detect features regardless of surface color. LMI Technologies has a variety of products that can help with applications like yours. Please let us know if you still need to find a solution to your application. Thank you.
