On-Line Web Inspection System

US Patent:
4237539, Dec 2, 1980
Filed:
Nov 21, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/853421
Inventors:
Michael J. Piovoso - Newark DE
Edmund H. Smith - Wilmington DE
William E. Wolf - Newark DE
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
G01N 2184, G06F 1520
US Classification:
364552
Abstract:
An automatic on-line computer-aided inspection system for a running web utilizing a transverse web scanning means, detection means incorporating feature extraction and processing circuitry for generating unique output signals corresponding to said web scanning characteristic of web features of inspection interest, means converting the output signals to digital data words input sequentially to a digital computer, said computer applying one or more algorithms to said words, thereby calibrating the values of said features of said words, comparing said calibrated feature values to at least one set of product-qualifying values held in memory, and means responsive to the computer classifying the web as acceptable or non-acceptable as regards areas of preselected marketable size in the web.

Optical-Electrical Web Inspection System

US Patent:
3958127, May 18, 1976
Filed:
Aug 9, 1974
Appl. No.:
5/496319
Inventors:
Mark E. Faulhaber - Wilmington DE
Edmund H. Smith - Wilmington DE
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
G01N 2132
US Classification:
250563
Abstract:
An automatically calibrated flying spot web inspection system adapted to detect transverse (or roll mark) defects and discriminate these defects from other defect types. Electronic circuit means responsive to a beam of radiation in either the reflection mode or the transmission mode detect and discriminate these defects from the other types.

Defect Identification With Normalizing Of Gain Function In Optical-Electrical Inspection

US Patent:
4005281, Jan 25, 1977
Filed:
May 14, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/577394
Inventors:
Mark Edwin Faulhaber - Wilmington DE
Edmund Haislett Smith - Wilmington DE
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
G06F 1500
US Classification:
2351513
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for defect identification with normalizing of the optical-electrical inspection system gain function of scans across a full width of running product web in order to facilitate defect amplitude discrimination within the uneven portions of repetitive scan signals, and then, after accumulating a preselected number of gain-normalized scans, identifying protracted duration defect-related signals by amplitude discrimination.

US Patent:
4166541, Sep 4, 1979
Filed:
Aug 30, 1977
Appl. No.:
5/829248
Inventors:
Edmund H. Smith - Wilmington DE
Assignee:
E. I. Du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE
International Classification:
B07C 500
US Classification:
209587
Abstract:
An electro-optical inspection system for a binary patterned web which automatically determines registration and the quality of subjects of inspection by comparison with a master pattern stored in the memory of a computer and then passes or rejects individual subjects of inspection depending on the outcome of the comparison effected.
