The visual inspection describes the optical inspection of a product or produced part for defects or production errors. As a non-destructive method of quality assurance, visual inspection is particularly suitable for the detection of scratches or defects, but also for the inspection of foreign particles or other external defects.
In addition to the "industrial image processing" test tool, which is increasingly finding its way into medical technology, optical quality assurance is still used.
Although the artificial intelligences are getting better and better, they still do not come close to the sensitivity of humans. The eye and the hand are still the number one measurement tools. For this reason, some tests cannot yet be completely replaced by the AI.
In medical technology, optical quality assurance is often only supplemented with the use of industrial image processing and runs simultaneously.
Depending on the test task, these can be tested using the transmitted light method or incident light. We will help you to find suitable lighting from our range. Particularly with a combination of an optical test with an industrial inspection, it must be ensured that the lighting meets both requirements:
The test time and the break time are given to the employee by signals. The basic light stays on all the time so that the eye can always see in a uniform brightness (less fatigue). The signals are implemented through targeted LED spots directly at the visual inspection. In this way, controlled and uniform test processes are specified. The individual results of the visual inspection are easier to compare.
Sample video: An employee visually inspects parts for complete and correct assembly. A light barrier or motion detector recognizes the start of a visual inspection. After the adjustable test time, the inspector is informed that his test time has ended. The reason for this is that the test item is not “tested too dead”. After a further adjustable pause, a signal is given that a new test process can begin.
Depending on the test task in the medical technology or pharmaceutical industry, several test methods are combined in one. This means that they can be flexibly adapted to changes in the test item. Since the lights are developed and manufactured in-house, our customers have many options.
When choosing the right test lights, the working environment must also be taken into account. We would be happy to advise you here too:
