Capture Film/Sheet Surface Flaws in Real Time.


A new surface-inspection system features a sheet-quality viewer that provides real-time surface images. Available from Cognex Corp., Natick, Mass., the SmartView surface inspection system is designed to detect and classify defects and present a full gray-scale image of them. A key feature is a sheet-quality viewer, which provides a real-time snapshot of the film surface with a CCD CCD
 in full charge-coupled device

Semiconductor device in which the individual semiconductor components are connected so that the electrical charge at the output of one device provides the input to the next device.
 (charged coupled device See CCD. ) line-scan camera. The high-resolution camera (up to 4096 pixels) runs at 40 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. . Open data access allows easy retrieval of information on defects for each roll of film or sheet. The modular, scalable system is based on Windows NT (Windows New Technology) A 32-bit operating system from Microsoft for Intel x86 CPUs. NT is the core technology in Windows 2000 and Windows XP (see Windows). Available in separate client and server versions, it includes built-in networking and preemptive multitasking. , so users can customize detection resolution for cross-web or down-web application.
