Industrial lenses play a core perception role in the entire process of automobile manufacturing. They drive the intelligent upgrade of quality control, automated assembly, safety testing and other links through high-precision imaging and intelligent analysis technology. The following are its main application scenarios and technical solutions:

1. Precision inspection of core components

 

‌-Engine and power system‌

 

‌Internal defect inspection of cylinder block/crankcase‌:

 

Use ultra-fine industrial endoscopes (such as Microvision Optoelectronics K series) to penetrate the cavity to detect casting pores, slag inclusions and microcracks (accuracy up to 0.01mm), and the 360° rotating lens is combined with a six-color LED light source to solve the interference of metal reflection.

 

‌Turbocharger flow channel inspection‌:

 

High-resolution lenses observe the internal surface roughness to ensure turbine efficiency, and the single inspection time is shortened by 75% compared with traditional disassembly.

 

‌Gearbox and transmission parts‌

 

‌Gear burr identification‌:

 

Dual telecentric lenses (0.5X-1X) are combined with 3D vision technology to quantify burr size (length/height tolerance ±0.01mm) to avoid assembly jams.

 

‌Oil channel foreign body inspection‌:

 

Endoscopes with a diameter of ≤3.9mm penetrate the seal, and the AI-DIR module automatically marks 6 types of defects such as oil leakage and piston wear, with a false alarm rate of <0.3%.

2. Car body manufacturing and assembly

‌-Welding quality monitoring‌


‌Weld point defect identification‌:

A megapixel industrial camera with a low-distortion fixed-focus lens (distortion < 0.03%) can capture cold welding, over-welding and welding deviation in real time, with a detection speed of thousands of points per minute.

 

‌Laser welding process imaging‌:

Anti-glare coated lenses monitor weld penetration to ensure structural strength, with a missed detection rate of < 0.1%.

 

 

‌-Coating and sealing process‌


‌Glue path continuity detection‌:

360° full-view monitoring, dynamic identification of glue breakage, offset and glue width deviation (compatible with black and white glue), with a maximum beat of 0.5m/second.

 

Coating uniformity analysis‌:

Line scan lenses (line frequency > 80kHz) scan the body surface to detect defects such as orange peel and sagging, and grade and evaluate with deep learning algorithms.

 

 

3. Appearance and safety component quality inspection

 

‌-Full-dimensional inspection of automotive glass‌

 

‌Surface profile measurement‌:

Coordinate measuring machine (CMM) combined with laser triangulation, with an accuracy of ±0.01mm, ensures the fit of the windshield.

 

Stress and edge defect identification‌:

Polarized light technology detects residual stress, and high-power microscope lens detects microcracks to prevent the risk of spontaneous rupture.

 

‌Transmittance and haze control‌:

Special optical lenses quantify the proportion of scattered light to ensure that the clarity of vision meets traffic safety standards.

 

‌-Body surface defect screening‌

 

‌Scratch/dent detection‌:

3D vision technology (such as structured light scanning) reconstructs surface morphology and identifies defects ≥0.1mm.

 

‌Coating layer uniformity evaluation‌:

Multispectral lens analyzes coating thickness and color difference to ensure appearance consistency.

 

 

4. Intelligent auxiliary system

‌-Robot guidance and positioning‌


‌Disordered grasping of parts‌:

M12 micro lens (diameter ≤12mm) equipped with AGV car, 3D visual positioning accuracy ±0.5mm, adapt to reflective and oily environment.

 

‌Precision assembly calibration‌:

Telecentric lens (depth of field ≥30mm) guides the alignment of engine cylinder head and crankshaft, assembly error <0.01mm.

 

-‌Production traceability and code recognition‌


‌DPM code reading‌: High-resolution fixed-focus lens (200 lp/mm) identifies the direct marking code (DPM) of parts, complex font recognition rate >99%

6.Selection core parameter guide

 

‌Accuracy adaptation‌:

Detecting 0.01mm defects requires a lens resolution of ≥140 lp/mm (corresponding to a 10M pixel camera).


‌Environmental tolerance‌:

Nano-oleophobic coating is used for oily scenes, and IP54 protection level is required for dusty environments.


‌Dynamic performance‌:

For high-speed assembly lines, large aperture fixed focus lenses (F2.8) are preferred to reduce motion blur
