Abstract: A system for performing the inspection of a concrete block includes a conveyor, a weighing module and a scanning module. The conveyor extends along a conveying axis and conveys a support plate with the concrete block supported thereon. The weighing module weighs the support plate with the concrete block supported thereon. The scanning module includes a scanner scanning the upper surface of the concrete block and the upper surface of the support plate. The scanner is displaceable along a scanning axis and has a scanning range covering an entirety of an upper surface of the concrete block supported on the support plate and a section of the upper surface of the support plate extending from at least two consecutive lower edges of the concrete block supported on the support plate. A method performs the inspection of a concrete block.
