Laser system for controlling glass drawing speed

Application domain

The system is designed for control of glass drawing processes.


Operating principle

The system is based on the correlation method of  measuring motion speed.  The first photodetector of a CCD-camera reads image of a glass-sheet edge at fixed time intervals.  The images acquired are digitized and compared to each other.   The distance passed by the glass edge in a time interval between  frames and, hence, the glass movement speed, is calculated from the position of the maximum of the correlation function in the selected image zones.  Simultaneously, by processing of the image from the second photodetector the transverse displacement of the glass tape is calculated.


The system consists of

-a TV camera with two CCD-linear arrays and image processor;
-a semiconductor laser illuminator;
-a control and display panel equipped with a graphic display, a numeric speed value indicator  and a linear indicator of the glass displacement value.  The control panel forms input signals for the automatics which controls the glass drawing process line and transmits information to workshop supervisor’s PC;
-an optical extender and a blind which reduce effects of extraneous light sources.
