8.9
Match Tool
Use the Match tool to verify that a
pattern,
shape, or part in any
orientation
matches a reference
pattern.
The Match tool can also
compensate for
translation
and
rotation
of downstream tools (if selected).
The reference
pattern
is taught during setup. A reference
pattern
might include alphanumeric characters, logos, or any other shapes.
During an
inspection,
the sensor checks that each part or package being inspected matches the reference
pattern.
The number of
expected
patterns
can also be determined.
When a Match tool is added to an
inspection,
the
inspection
fails and there is a red box around
Pattern
. This is because a reference
pattern
has not yet been taught.
Configure
the Teach ROI as desired, and then teach the reference
pattern.
Example
applications:
• Date/Lot code
inspections
• Label
inspections
• Part etching
inspections
• Part
orientation
inspections
• Part shape
inspections
