Gear Tooth Profile Inspection Using DENSO + QRS Vision

#BinPicking#3DVision#2DInspection#GearToothInspection#RobotSorting#ManufacturingAutomation

Process Overview

This solution is an automated sorting system that combines QRS 2D/3D vision inspection with a DENSO VS robot to pick randomly placed gears, inspect gear tooth geometry, and separate OK parts from NG parts.

With QRS’s in-house vision technology, the system can be tuned and customized to match specific site conditions, enabling precise inspection across various gear shapes and models.

This project was implemented to automate the inspection process after bin picking.

Key Features

Fast and accurate sorting performance
High-speed robot handling (max tool speed up to 9 m/s) for improved throughput
Reduced cycle time by performing vision recognition in sync with robot motion
Robust 3D recognition for complex-shaped parts (position & pose)
Micron-level dimensional inspection capability using 2D vision
Vision solution build by dedicated vision specialists
Strong customization and tuning flexibility with in-house vision development capability

Implementation Results

ROI Period
Key Metrics	Reduced manpower for quality inspection and sorting Lower defect-related cost and improved customer-perceived quality
Client Feedback	Under varying product and environmental conditions, inspection errors occurred frequently and it was difficult to respond quickly when new products were added. With QRS’s on-site-tailored support backed by dedicated vision expertise, responsiveness improved significantly and satisfaction with the outcomes was high.
