摘要
During the manufacturing process steel bars are cleaned of roll scale by shot blasting, before further processing the bars by drawing. The main goal of this project is to increase the automation of the shot blasting process by machine vision. For this purpose a method is needed for estimating the surface roughness and other anomalies from the steel bars from digital images after the shot blasting. The goal of this method is to estimate if the quality of shot blasting is sufficient considering the quality of the final products after the drawing. In this project a method for normalising the images is considered and several methods for estimating the actual roughness level are experimented. During the experiments a best method was one where the roughness levels are calculated directly from the images as if the images were similar to other measuring sources and the grey-level values in the images represent the deviation on the bar surface. This at least separates the different samples.
