Hole Inspection

Location of the holes

The BlobAnalyser tool is used to locate the holes. With this tool the following information can be extracted:

  • Diameter (horizontal)
  • Diameter (vertical)
  • FormFactor
  • Eccentricity
  • Area
  • Perimeter
  • X/Y position of the hole
  • others

Calibration

  • Set up the zoom and focus for the holes
  • Put a Ronchi Ruling under the camera (see Figure on the right side)
  • Count the number of line pairs in the viewport
  • With this information and the size of the viewport (in pixels) calculate the size of one pixel (see calculation below)

Calculation

(The used Ronchi Ruling has 100 line pairs per 1 inch)

  • Calculate the size of 1 line: 100 lines = 1 inch = 0.0254 m
    1 line = 0.0254 / 100 = 0.000254 m
  • Calculate the size of 1 pixel (29 lines are counted in the viewport)
    29 lines = 29 * 0.000254 = 0.007366 m = 640 pixel
    1 pixel = 0.007366 / 640 = 0.000011509375 m
  • Calculate the size of the holes
    Hole 0 = 139 pixel => 139 * 0.000011509375 = 1.60 mm
    Hole 1 = 151 pixel => 151 * 0.000011509375 = 1.74 mm
