Abstract: There is provided an article inspection system including: an additional processing control unit that executes additional processing on an article determined to be defective among inspected articles, according to an inspection result of an article inspection unit, in which the additional processing control unit includes a quality state determination unit that determines which one of a plurality of preset quality states the inspection result corresponds to, and processing request selection means for selecting any one of first processing request information for requesting a working machine to perform first additional processing work by the working machine and second processing request information for requesting second manual additional processing work, according to a determination result of the quality state determination unit.

Abstract: Apparatus for measuring displacement that measures the displacement (the irregularities) of the surface of a measuring object precisely and at high speed is provided. The apparatus for measuring displacement scans light radiated toward the surface of the measuring object and measures the amount of displacement of the surface of the measuring object without contact based upon the position of an image formation point formed on the light receiving plane of a light receiving element. Light receiving means is provided with a lens array composed of plural condenser lenses which converges measuring beams and an imaging lens for forming an image formation point on the light receiving plane by converged measuring beams. Reflected light from an irradiation point is converged by the lens array. The converged reflected light is imaged on the light receiving plane by the imaging lens.
