Improving CT quality control of a micro injection molded part by multisensor data fusion
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acquiring holistic and accurate 3D measurements for industrial parts is highly demanded in the fields of quality control, process optimization and product development. The increasing complexity in the design and miniaturization make the task of holistic 3D data acquisition difficult. For the last few years, industrial computed tomography (CT) has emerged as a promising coordinate measuring technology, which enables integrated quality control of complex workpieces combining dimensional metrology and material defects analysis. In this study, the potential of CT is utilized for quality assessment of a micro molded part; in addition, data from confocal microscopy is used for enhancement of the CT result by data fusion.

A New Method for Multisensor Data Fusion Based on Wavelet Transform in a Chemical Plant
This paper presents a new multi-sensor data fusion method based on the combination of wavelet transform (WT) and extended Kalman filter (EKF). Input data are first filtered by a wavelet transform via Daubechies wavelet “db4” functions and the filtered data are then fused based on variance weights in terms of minimum mean square error. The fused data are finally treated by extended Kalman filter...

متن کاملProduction and Analysis of Injection Molded Micro-Optic Components
Injection molding is a manufacturing technique that, through filling of a mold cavity (typically made from steel or aluminum alloys) with molten polymer, produces plastic parts. The geometry of the mold cavity is identical to the desired part shape, after taking into account thermal shrinkage. This manufacturing process is an economical and reliable way to mass-produce a variety of parts. Tradi...
