A Detection System of Tool Parameter Using Machine Vision

摘要

This paper suggests a novel technique for the tool parameter measurement based on machine vision. Tool images are captured by using a machine vision system and the outer contour image of the cutter is obtained by using the machine vision technology. The HALCON image processing library is used as the development platform to build the tool parameters test system. Several algorithms including image segmentation, edge extraction and fitting ellipse determination is used for image processing. The tool parameters such as external diameter and contour angle of tool edge can be obtained after rebuilding the contour of tool edge. The proposed scheme is shown to be reliable and effective for the automated tool parameter measurement.
