Abstract
One of the problems currently faced by the pharmaceutical industry in an automatic process, is to ensure that by means of a single traditional inspection system, the characteristics of the glass ampules are evaluated with respect to their appearance in the finish and the color. In addition to being free of defects such as cracks, roughness, excess material and burrs in the finished product. In the present work, a prototype of automatic artificial vision was developed, reliable and safe for the mechanical-visual inspection, ordering and packaging of ampoules in the pharmaceutical industry. The elements that make up the system are: a robot of the brand Mitsubishi RV-2FB-D, the controller CR-750D, a camera COGNEX model ISM 1100-C11, a conveyor belt, a direct current (DC) motor and a vacuum suction cups, the latter responsible for taking the ampule. The results obtained in the project allowed to validate the use of artificial vision to visually and visually verify amber-colored ampoules in an automated process, as well as to validate the ordering of ampoules in the same position inside their packaging.
