EYEBOT
 

An automated Optical Inspection System

 
A Self Learning Machine Vision System that sets new standards in Quality Control. Spradecom launches Eyebot-Self Learning Inspection System in technical  collaboration with SighTech Vision System, USA. Eyebot is a revolutionary inspection device. It is a trainable machine version system that installs fast and allows extreme flexibility. Eyebot learns to inspect your products just by looking at them, including variations in positioning, orientation, lighting and clutter, it trains in minutes and requires no PC or software.

You can use Eyebot automated optical inspection was previously too complicated or too costly. Anyone can train Eyebot. You show Eyebot some good parts and it learns them. After training it, you give the command to RUN. Eyebot will tell you when it sees anything you did not teach it. You never have to turn ON a PC or struggle with complicated software. Eyebot trains a few minutes to see defective products on manufacturing lines, if lighting or position varies. It is used for incoming, in-process, and outgoing inspection at different locations.

HOW DOES IT WORK

Training Eyebot to inspect your products can be as easy as setting up a photo eye sensor. Here are the 5 steps to making Eyebot work for you.

ERASE

Turn Eyebot's know to ERASE and press YES. This erases Eyebot's memory, so you can begin training. Eyebot retains training for 10 years.

VIEW

Set the size and location of the View are to cover the features you want to inspect. Use the Up / Down buttons to set the video threshold so that you can see the features and defects in the View area.

LEARN

Turn the know to Learn and press Yes. Now show Eyebot only good product. Move, rotate, or vibrate the samples to simulate how it will appear during actual inspection. The Score on the monitor will stabilize in a high range ( 80 - 100 ) when Eyebot is done training.

TEST

Turn knob to Test and observe the Score: the higher the Score, the better the part. Lower the decision Threshold so that good products do not pass. Learning is cumulative, so you can build on your training until al the good parts pass with a good margin.

RUN

Turn the Run and get back to work. Run gives you the same functionality as Test, but Eyebot's solid-state relays activate your alarm, ejector mechanism, or PLC. Two optically isolated relays switch 3A at 60V.
