Calender vision system.This designer and manufacturer of integrated process control systems for the rubber and plastics industries has developed the Vision system, a calender CALENDER. An almanac. Julius Caesar ordained that the Roman year should consist of 365 days, except every fourth year, which should contain 366, the additional day to be reckoned by counting the twenty-fourth day of February (which was the 6th of the calends of March) twice. control system that detects missing wire cords and provides wire cord spacing information. The system examines the cord just before it enters the calender nip, providing continuous monitoring, reporting and alarming of cord spacing, missing cord detection, number of cords, and crossed or paired cords. The system detects a missing cord or improper cord spacing within three to four inches in the machine direction of when it occurs at 60 yards per minute. The average is less than a two inch delay. The system is comprised of 16 high resolution area scan CCD cameras See digital camera. arranged across the web, two high frequency fluorescent lamps fluorescent lamp Type of electric discharge lamp consisting of a glass tube filled with a mixture of argon and mercury vapor. A current of electricity causes the vapor to produce ultraviolet radiation that, in turn, excites a phosphor coating on the inside of the tube, for lighting, six frame grabbers with three cameras per frame grabber operating concurrently, a high speed Windows 2000 computer(s) for processing data and for HMI (Human Machine Interface) The user interface in a manufacturing or process control system. It provides a graphics-based visualization of an industrial control and monitoring system. (operator interface control), and a 17" touchscreen HMI. The cameras look at the wire against the black rubber background on the #3 roll between the pressure roll and the 2:3 roll nip.
