Manual Test Station with 3-Axis System for Automotive Connector ModuleManual Test Station

When resolution alone is no longer enough...

 

Challenge

Inspecting connector assemblies comes with its own set of challenges. Each component has fine details that need careful examination, from identifying surface flaws to ensuring proper marker placement. Add the need to inspect both sides simultaneously, and the process becomes even more complex. A solution was needed that could handle these requirements with precision and efficiency.

Application & Solution

Our innovative system captures 18 images of the component at different positions and focal planes, covering both the front and back of the connector assembly. Using an 8 µm/pixel resolution, the images are stitched together with a specially developed stitching tool, producing a single, highly detailed overall image. This approach ensures every critical detail is inspected.

The inspection process leverages VisionCommander® image processing software, which evaluates the stitched image for defects or irregularities. Additionally, the system applies a good part marker automatically to parts that meet quality standards, integrating a dedicated camera for precise placement.
