One day it happens that one implant was wrong labeled. Ok you would think, “not a problem” . But think about a doctor who find out this after he drilled the hole. As patient you would not be amused.

Due to this risk I got the order to compare implants in glastube and blister against known parameters.

We descided to check length and diameter.

After tests, we saw that you need to change lightning (angle and intensity) for every edge to measure.

With this we build a lightning with contolled 16 LED around the blister.

From top a industrial 5M Pix camera, a Beckhoff industrial PC and some IO to contol the LED.

How does this work ?

We learn at a sample blister the dimensions and the lightning. Its a manual process.

We store this parameter with the given productname.

Now before labeling on a conveyor belt we get the productname from the labeling machine.

Load the parameterset, redo measuring and compare.

Now we give back “good or bad” to kick the blister off the conveyor belt.

Key to this application was the right lightning.
