Automated Optical Defect Detection During Pulp and Paper Production - Expectations and Reality, 1993 Process & Product Quality Conference Proceedings
Heiko H. Fastenau
Automated defect detection is becoming increasingly important in the pulp and paper industry. Since the machine and production speed gets faster and material width gets wider, there is too much to meet the high quality requirements with a manual inspection procedure.
The results of automated defect evaluation are not necessarily fully compatible and comparable with human inspection results. A closer look is taken to what is expected from automated optical inspection and what can be delivered by today available systems.
