| Summary: | Machine vision systems for automatic defect detection commonly adopt 2D image-based systems or 3D laser triangulation systems. 2D and 3D systems present opposite advantages and disadvantages depending on the typology and position of defects to be detected. When the variety of defects is large, none of them performs defect detection accurately. To overcome this limitation, this paper illustrates a hybrid Deep Learning-supported system where the 2D- and 3D-generated data are juxtaposed and analyzed contextually. Anomaly scores are subsequently determined to distinguish suitable and uncompliant parts. The implementation of the hybrid system allowed the identification of defective parts in an aluminium die-cast component with an accuracy concerning true positives of over 95% by comparing the system outputs with human defect detection. The inspection time was reduced by approximately 20% if compared, once again, with the same activities performed by humans. |
