  • Apparatus and process with an annular fluorescent tube for detection in a moving mode of surface defects on long metallic products
    Patent number: 5408104
    Abstract: An apparatus and a process for detecting surface defects on moving long metallic products utilizing linear CCD cameras for effecting exposures at successive times t1, t2,t3 . . . Tn. A processing device calculates differences observed for each pixel or assemble of pixels at the successive times and any variations in the differences makes it possible to detect defects and the extent of the defects. The use of thresholds allows for reduction in the background noise and different orientations of the optical axis of the camera permit the detection of different types of defects.
