Abstract
Analysis of dimensions of a product, its visualization as a 3D model & volume estimation, positively impact the operations of manufacturing department in an industry. In this paper, a system has been designed to integrate the proposed features like 3D reconstruction, dimensional analysis & support for manipulating the reconstructed model. Research was carried out to estimate the volume of objects using their virtual 3D model & allow the user to edit this model which later can be compared with the original object, for manipulation. The pictures of an object from different planes are captured and using image processing, it is reconstructed in 3D, which is used to estimate parameters like volume, surface area, maximum dimensions across different planes. This edited 3D model will be utilized for generating a binary file representing the changes. This system provides detailed information to the user along with flexibility, thus enhancing the way in which the manufacturing industry works, as it requires no manual input or interaction once the process begins.
Highlights
Analysis of dimensions of objects is of utmost importance
With the COVID-19 pandemic, manufacturing and testing has become a huge challenge for industries with paucity of staff, further increasing the need for automation at every level
This paper proposes a methodology for the improvement of the quality of industrial automation, manufacturing and testing, that uses new techniques and integrates the processes of dimensional analysis, volume estimation, 3D reconstruction and provides support for manipulation of an object, which can be exported in the form of a standard .stl file format to be utilized as preferred by the user
Summary
Analysis of dimensions of objects is of utmost importance. This should be carried out as efficiently and safely as possible, considering production for sensitive domains where non-destructive processes should be used. This paper proposes a methodology for the improvement of the quality of industrial automation, manufacturing and testing, that uses new techniques and integrates the processes of dimensional analysis, volume estimation, 3D reconstruction and provides support for manipulation of an object, which can be exported in the form of a standard .stl file format to be utilized as preferred by the user
