9.1.1 Area Menu

Main Menu > Inspection > Sensors > Area
Use an Area sensor to ensure that a feature, or multiple features, are present on a part. When setting up the iVu for an Area
inspection, a feature, such as a drilled hole, is identified as well as the size (area) expected. If there is more than one of the
identified features on a part, the number expected can be set as well. During the inspection, the sensor verifies that each
part or package includes the specified number of features.
Example applications include:
• Inspections that check for drilled holes on a part
• Inspections that check for correctly stamped parts
• Inspections that ensure proper packaging (for example, check that a packing slip exists in or on a box; test whether
a vial is properly capped)
• Inspections of blister packs
To configure as an Area sensor, set the following parameters:
• ROI and Mask—Rectangle, elliptical, or circle
• Intensity Range—Range of grayscale values of a feature of interest
• Area Range—Size range of a feature of interest
• Pass Count—Number of features
• Pass Total Area—Total size of all features
To see a working example of the sensor configured as an Area sensor, see Demo Mode.
