Published purpose

The goal of this project is to implement a high resolution vision system into our manufacturing process to allow Realtime contactless measurement of a moving web of nanofibers. By mounting a camera on a 1.6 meter linear rail we will be able to capture images across the fine web of material without touching it. With the use of pixel counting software we will be able to determine the the thickness of the web and density of the nano fibers. This will allow us to confidently monitor process stability and tune zones across the web to balance the evenness' of the finished product. Once the process is calibrated we would like to capture data from the machine setting and overlay it with the data captured from the cameras.
