Study Notes
Machine Vision
- Machine vision uses image-based automatic examination for quality control, process control, and robot guidance. It's used for optical gauging, quality assurance, sorting, part assembly, and controlling manufacturing processes.
- Computer vision consists of 5 components: illumination, camera, image capture board, computer hardware, and software. It's a rapid, economic, consistent, and objective inspection technique.
- Key steps in machine vision include image acquisition (determining image quality), and image processing (guiding machinery operations).
- Machine vision is crucial in the food industry, successfully analyzing grain characteristics, evaluating foods (like potato chips and meat), and sorting/grading fruits.
Technical Drawing
- Technical drawing, also known as engineering drawing, is a precise diagram displaying how an object functions. It uses standardized language and symbols.
- Types of technical drawings include isometric, orthographic 2D/3D, flat pattern, section, cutout, detail, and auxiliary views.
- An assembly drawing depicts items with multiple components.
Name Plates
- Name plates are small, flat objects displaying identifying information (e.g., names, details).
Pneumatic vs. Hydraulic Systems
- Pneumatic systems use compressible air.
- Hydraulic systems use incompressible liquid (often oil).
- Pneumatic systems are simpler and more reliable, require less storage space but have lower force capabilities compared to hydraulic systems.
- Hydraulic systems offer higher force transmission but can be more complex.
Programmable Logic Controller (PLC)
- A PLC is a specialized computer for industrial control systems.
- PLCs manage electromechanical processes.
- They consist of components like a power supply, processor, communication cards (digital input/output and analog input/output).
- A PLC program can be used to control ingredient dosing and mixing in industrial processes.
