Bullet Core Optical Surface Inspection Measurement Sorting Machine System

Inspection Capabilities

The system uses advanced machine vision inspection technology and automation.

• Overall Length

  Measures the total axial length of the bullet core with high repeatability.

• Outer Diameter

  Measures core diameter at one or multiple positions.

• Diameter Variation

  Checks diameter consistency along the core and identifies undersize/oversize parts.

• Profile / Contour

  Compares the complete side profile against a reference profile or tolerance.

• Taper

  Detects gradual change in diameter from one end to the other.

• Roundness / Circularity

  Checks whether the cross-section maintains the required circular geometry.

• Concentricity / Center Alignment

  Detects deviation between the component axis and measured geometric features, where the part presentation allows it.

• End Face Diameter

  Measures the diameter and geometry of the visible end face.

• End Face Flatness / Shape

  Detects uneven, damaged, or improperly formed end surfaces.

• Surface Scratches

  Detects visible scratches and linear surface marks using suitable lighting.

• Dents / Deformation

  Identifies visible dents, flattening, bulges, and other shape abnormalities.

• Cracks / Surface Breaks

  Detects visible cracks or discontinuities when they provide sufficient optical contrast.

• Burrs / Edge Defects

  Checks edges for excess material, irregular edges, or deformation.

• Surface Finish / Texture

  Identifies abnormal surface texture or visible finishing variations.

• Contamination / Foreign Material

  Detects visible oil, dirt, particles, stains, or foreign material subject to lighting conditions.

• Presence / Absence

  Confirms that the bullet core is correctly presented for inspection.

• Orientation

  Determines whether the component is correctly oriented before inspection or sorting.

• Dimensional Profile Matching

  Compares measured geometry with a predefined OK reference/tolerance profile.

• OK / NG Sorting

  Automatically classifies components as Accepted (OK) or Rejected (NG) based on inspection results.
