BeadInspect offers a robust inspection of the bead line \u2013 even if bead size, shape, and appearance change over time. This is important when inspecting a freshly applied, wet or shiny RTV bead, or when the beads vary in location from part to part.<\/p>\n<p>The bead inspection process with the Cognex BeadInspect tool helps ensure that the beads have been applied in the right volume and with precise positioning.<\/p>\n<p>In 2D inspections, the tool locates the position of a glue bead on the surface of a component and detects gaps. In 3D ones, it calculates the volume of the glue beads to ensure that the right amount of glue has been dispensed.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Features of inspection tool for beads<\/li>\n<li>Easily train the bead path, with just a few clicks, using the PolyLine function<\/li>\n<li>Find defects in beads that change or differ in shape<\/li>\n<li>Determine width based on defects and gaps<\/li>\n<li>Remove noise for increased robustness<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>Cognex custom edge inspection tool<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Edge inspection tool finds gaps, defects along edges, and other area-based and surface flaws.
