Just looking for information or any advice you industry leaders can offer on a vision project I'm working on.
Currently we depend on a lot of cameras (mostly DVT) for process control poka yoke - operator cycles the machine with the wrong component used, the camera detects this and the part is locked in place until a team leader can investigate. At times we have false fails; sometimes ambient or stray light, sometimes variation in the part color, other times dust collection, etc. This generally leads to a camera adjustment (exposure modified, a threshold increased or decreased, etc.). Technicians make adjustments with good intent but sometimes these changes expose us to risk.
What do you guys do for vision changes in your industry? Just run a few bad parts post-change to verify implementation? Do you re-run the entire capability study? Do you communicate changes with your peers - if so, how?
Any information you can provide is appreciated!!
