Abstract :
Today´s high speed, complex manufacturing systems require the development of automation technologies that can be efficiently integrated into the systems and used in manufacture floors. This article presents a successful industrial application of machine vision technology for medical syringe assembly. The developed vision inspection station with ten cameras that was integrated into an assembly line has a capability of inspecting 5 syringes per 250 million seconds for a total production rate of ranging from 300 to 600 parts per minute.
