Optical Measurement of Granite Tranches.
|
|
In association with Kusser Aicha
Granitwerke FORWISS has developed an optical measuring system for
granite plates. The informations on these so called tranches
are saved in a relational database system. During the measuring
process the system will automatically recognize parts of the tranche
that were marked as defective by simply covering the surface with
painted tiles.
In addition a colored picture of a small part of the tranche will
be shot in order to classify the surface color and structure of the
granite tranche. This picture will also be stored in the database.
On the basis of the database proper tranches could be chosen by a
salesclerk to simplify customer requests. To do this, it had
been necessary to implement intelligent search functions, an
estimation and optimization of the production waste and the value of
the remaining tranche, and the possibility of comparing the surface
collor of different tranches
The whole software system can be controlled with a modern
interactive user interface and leads to efficient storage
administration and quality assurance in a middle class company.
