Abstract
A vision system using high-resolution CCD camera and back-light was developed for the on-line measurement of nose wear of cutting tool inserts. Initial study showed that the system is sensitive to several factors in the work environment such as misalignment of cutting tool, presence of micro-dust particles, vibration and intensity variation of ambient light. An algorithm using Wiener filtering, median filtering, morphological operations and thresholding was developed to decrease the system error caused by these factors. A conforming method was used to overcome misalignment of the tool insert during offline and on-line measurement. The algorithm, combined with a subtraction method, was applied to measure the nose wear area of the inserts under different machining conditions.
