46 Extrusion International 3/2020 QUALITY CONTROL Since conventional inspection systems for plastic films detect defects using black and white cameras, critical color defects such as oil spots cannot be classified cor- rectly and maybe even missed altogether. To tackle this problem, ISRA VISION has now developed a solution that is unique on the market: The SMASH inspection systems have now been enhanced with a new embed- ded vision color camera and HDR technology that also detects the coloring of the material and any defects for the best possible classification. In addition to their compact design, the innovative all-in-one modules are highly cost- effective. This is achieved by using fewer and smaller components to enable leaner systems and lower investment costs while aiding integration and simplify- ing maintenance. The future belongs to color cameras In order to be able to reliably detect and distinguish be- tween black-and-white and color defects, it is necessary to have genuine color cameras as op- posed to the color LED, given its limitations. ISRA has now introduced a unique embedded color camera in 8K resolution. The revolutionary, intelli- gent color camera enables a black-and-white and a color image to be generated simultaneously in a single scan. There are no concessions when it comes to resolution – even at high speeds. Compared the competition, which only offers B/W cameras with colored LED lighting, ISRA’s genuine embedded color cameras offer real ad- vantages thanks to their additional HDR technol- ogy. Dirt, thin areas, and holes in the material can The demand for protective masks according to FFp2 standard, protective covers, and other nonwoven-based products for both the medical and the hygiene sector is growing dramatically in the corona crisis. An even more reliable 100% control in the now rapidly developing new production lines is indispensable 100% Inspection of Nonwoven Web Material for Medical Protection and Hygiene Products The ISRA embedded color camera combines the benefits fromblack and white cameras with the additional detection and classification of color cameras and HDR technology Detection and classification of defects is much easier with this kind of color reports
