Abstract

Manufacturing processes require to satisfy quality standards in the produced parts. In particular, the edge finishing must be burr-free, avoiding that it yields different problems such as wasting time removing them what increases the production cost and time. A burr can be noticed microscopically, but it can contain imperfections or evidence of poor piece design. In order to detect automatically this imperfections and to evaluate the quality of the edge finishing, this paper proposes a complete vision based method using image processing and linear regression. With the calculated function, the slope is isolated and compared to obtain quality assessment thresholds. Results validate the good performance of the proposed method to differenciate three types of burrs.
