Abstract
An optical configuration for the detection of faults was developed and tested. The optical fourier transformation is the basic working principle of the system. When good fabric passes in front of the optical system the Fourier image, captured by the camera, shows well defined spots corresponding to the spatial frequencies of the tissue. If a defect occurs during production on the loom, the pattern changes significantly and a defect is easily detected in real time. A very simple electronic image processing based on thresholding and binary histograms allows to obtain very encouraging performance for its applicability to the looms. A compact device has been realized and tested in real working conditions on the loom.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
