Intelligent vision system for welded joints
Automated quality inspection of welds
Welding is the most common joining process used in the manufacturing industry. For the product’s robustness, an inspection of the weld is crucial. In today’s modern factories, welding robots and handling robots weld and lift the product on and off. However, the quality inspection of the welded joints usually is done by manual labour before the product leaves the factory. Here, Unibap instead can offer an automated inspection of welds. We design a tailored vision system that can identify typical defects such as:
- Incomplete penetration
- Incomplete Fusion
- Undercut
- Spatter
- Slag Inclusion
- Cracks
- Overlap
- Warpage
- Burn through
- Wrong dimensions
Implementation
Together with you as an industrial customer, we set up a workflow where our Intelligent Vision Platform can automatically check welds and communicate with your robots. The system is also easy to adjust for changes in the product or welding path.
Benefits
- Our system inspect all joints in a consistent way
- The need for investment is limited through the reuse of existing automation
- Reduces the risk of occupational injuries
