6 years experience in machine vision automation summary

  Hello everyone, blink of an eye, I have been engaged for six years in machine vision automation industry, and express in this article, I hope to learn some of the novice and more experienced, less roundabout take the points. So that everyone laughed.
   I read in the Shenzhen University mechanical engineering and automation professional, then do feel mechanical design, after graduation, although you can get a job easily in the Pearl River Delta, but if that bring high wages, then, the need is accumulated many years of experience, and the market a lot of people engaged in this, nothing new, entered the laboratory for college as an assistant, began to learn PLC and touch screen, listen to the teacher said in the future if you learn this, then, after graduating from wages very high, so I slowly deviated from the professional mechanical design drawing, and concentrate on learning and King of Mitsubishi PLC touch screen programming software until the first semester of my senior year to find a job when I realized that this really PLC is a lot of people, some cultures are not high quality people who can do this, for I was hit once in a Dongguan-chi out of a job fair, a guy asked me how much the asking price, I said 3K, he said to me, you are a graduate student, no work experience, at most, give me 1.5K, I was ignorant.
   Later, I was in school a lesson, called "machine vision", I feel very good, I feel this could be a future direction of development of automation, we strive to search the Internet to learn a lot of information, such as the * treasure bought a "halcon 10 "cracked version of the software to their own learning, and also in Dongguan Nan * the Swiss company to find a job, this company specialize in machine vision solutions and see the old master to do out of the project, think of to learn C ++, but also * on Sun Xin Bao bought a video tutorial of C ++, I began to really set foot in this industry.
    Later, Foxconn spent two or three years, did some automatic scanning BARCODE, inspection hole machine, paste steel machine, coating machine and so on a number of projects, with the dalsa and basler camera, other colleagues also useful and Fort Gray Point Union cameras, machine vision software development kit, then himself with the halcon, visionPro and opencv, then there are colleagues with his own image packages dalsa, and what was the name I forgot. As well as the light source Haupt and Christie (now renamed as sharp as it seems), I feel a special light source Dongguan Changan to do more. There are ITRI of Taiwan with motion control card. Later I went to the company to do now Bonder and AOI inspection machine until now. With a gray dot, ImageSource and MIL camera image packages and Lemire, Googol motion control card. There is capacity housekeeper, using a mobile phone app to see the equipment capacity, I feel this good, anytime, anywhere using a mobile phone customers can view equipment capacity, API interface to automatically upload the data it provides easy to use. We can search on micro-channel micro-signal "lindrss" said to "capacity steward" on the line.
    La La weave said so much, and now summarize:
1, image acquisition is best to use API interface to capture images of the camera itself, not to capture an image based on image acquisition protocol standard image software package, because the camera manufacturers themselves understand their own and know how to get to a more stable image acquisition. There is sure to trigger soft, so-called soft trigger, that is when you need an image, you can send a software trigger command to capture an image to the camera. API interface + software trigger mode image capture, image capture can be more stable, run software for some time to avoid crash at the customer site, much of the worry and effort.
2, the image package, halcon cattle, visionPro easy to use, opencv most money, mil cheap. About Foxconn, Halcon and visionPro a computer running version to 15K, we learn, then, to put forward a cracked version Taobao learning enough. If you want to use genuine but also cheap, recommended MIL, MIL positioning module only about 2K. OpenCv then locate the template to do well, with a simple application used on the line, the biggest benefit is the free open source.
3, better cameras, Basler and Baumer's most expensive, dasla line sweep, the highest price point of ash, Germany ImagesSource can be. Basler's SDK function provides error capture, I think this is very good, other brands of cameras seem to not have this feature, the camera is wrong when you can capture images allows you to control the catch, so it is easy to troubleshoot the cause, not pop a memory read error message out, so you can not start investigation and the reasons.
4, motion control card, feeling Hong Kong and Taiwan to engage in automated like to use the institute's brand, the mainland is generally used in high solids and Raiser. ITRI expensive, but the stability of doing good, solid high Bi Leise hundreds of pieces of slightly more expensive, but high solid, whether the card or adapter plate, the quality of workmanship is better to Bi Leise, two libraries who are similar. Raiser's up to me with the boss feel cheap Well, just enough to avoid excessive quality.
5, a light source lighting is very important, directly related to the quality of the captured image, a good image, clean cut, the perfect embodiment of imaging products feature the company money, you can go directly to the company to help test light source lighting, variety light very much, a ring light, coaxial light, with high-power light line sweep, and white camera, red and blue light, ultraviolet light and the like. Company money, then it Taobao buy hundreds of pieces of the light source.
6, capacity housekeeper, look at equipment capacity of the phone APP, this is now a trend, I remember that now a lot of standard machines, such as foreign wire bonders and solid crystal, has provided the appropriate device network management software, but does not provide APP, the steward of this capacity, the APP provides a complete set of equipment and network management software, software engineers call it visual interface on it, very simple. We can search on micro-channel micro-signal "lindrss" said to "capacity steward" on the line.
7, are doing quite popular line of vision, no shortage of work, often there are some headhunter called to ask if I would change jobs.
Now that he chose this path, then no matter how bumpy the road ahead, knees have to finish.
When your talent can not afford to hang on your ambition when obediently continue to strive to improve themselves, to learn more, more exchanges, learn to trade the older generation will be able to exchange detours, so that these believe they will grow up fast!
This is my collection of a full set of tutorials, there is a need to save themselves:

knock on the blackboard: I often send some of them to learn a very valuable reference post and share information on some visual halcon learning, we can focus and I look my other post.
