Battery tab edges and film outlines
Selection

Battery tab edges and film outlines

Sample tab burrs and transparent film edges separately. Check whether exposure or part height shifts the detected edge.

Filter switching for multiband fibre illumination
Selection

Filter switching for multiband fibre illumination

After changing filters, recheck exposure, focus and field uniformity. Raw brightness values from different bands are not directly comparable.

Wafer chips, cracks and scratches
Selection

Wafer chips, cracks and scratches

Edge chips, surface scratches and internal cracks may require different viewing directions. One image cannot validate every defect class.

SWIR inspection of chip packaging
Selection

SWIR inspection of chip packaging

Test transmission through the actual packaging material before evaluating internal structures. Visually similar packages can behave differently in infrared.

Weld and assembly inspection on motor rotors
Selection

Weld and assembly inspection on motor rotors

Define separate criteria for rotor welds, slots and assembly position. Test reflections as the rotor turns.

LXV-2SLG RGB fibre illumination
Selection

LXV-2SLG RGB fibre illumination

Capture red, green and blue channels separately with fixed camera settings. Distinguish colour discrimination from surface-direction information.

Choosing laser-coupled fibre illumination
Selection

Choosing laser-coupled fibre illumination

Check fibre interfaces, speckle and output uniformity in laser-coupled systems. Follow the equipment instructions for optical protection.

Tunnel line lighting in confined spaces
Selection

Tunnel line lighting in confined spaces

Check feed clearance, camera aperture and service access in confined installations. Housing dimensions alone do not determine fit.

Striped illumination for surface deformation
Selection

Striped illumination for surface deformation

Record the normal pattern on a good part, then compare local displacement. Separate dents from printing and normal curvature.

Read article
Comparing lighting for brake disc surfaces
Selection

Comparing lighting for brake disc surfaces

Machining marks can resemble brake-disc scratches. Rotate samples under several lighting directions and record normal texture variation.

Read article
Testing infrared transmission in semiconductor materials
Selection

Testing infrared transmission in semiconductor materials

Transmission trials should cover thickness, doping and coatings. Material names alone do not establish infrared transparency.

Read article
Wire surface and appearance inspection
Selection

Wire surface and appearance inspection

Wire curvature and lateral movement change reflections. Inspect the full surface under representative motion conditions.

Questions

What questions help frame the discussion?

What can I find in the LuxMV article library?

The library contains machine vision lighting notes, selection guidance, inspection application examples, controller integration topics, and company updates.

Can an article replace sample testing?

No. Articles provide selection context; final lighting choices work well when compared with the actual workpiece, camera, lens, and production conditions.
