AI image processing to sort the colors of glass bottles, recognizing empty cans and PET bottles without using special lighting like UV. It will be a very inexpensive high-performance device!
Color sorting of glass bottles only through AI image processing Only glass bottles are sorted by color, while other items such as empty cans and PET bottles are not sorted. The deep learning training data focuses solely on the glass bottles we want to pick, with no need for training on PET bottles or empty cans! The training method is specialized, and the amount of image data used for training has also been reduced. Colors sorted include brown, clear, green, etc. Using conveyor tracking, only glass bottles of specified colors are picked by the robot. The robot can be adapted in various ways to suit the end users, including: - Collaborative robots - Parallel link robots - Multi-joint robots This is a sorting machine that brings together our company's expertise in understanding all aspects of glass bottles! Plus, it utilizes HALCON, the world's leading image processing technology. Completion is just around the corner. Please look forward to it! *HALCON is a pioneering tool that allows for the construction of efficient image processing systems by freely combining a vast array of over 2,000 high-functionality functions.

Company information
In the Vision & Robot System Development Department, we develop vision systems for robot systems and robot system development. We are involved in the development of optical sorting machines for recycling companies, automotive parts manufacturers, and food manufacturers, as well as the development of appearance inspection systems for automotive parts manufacturers. Our areas of expertise include optical automatic sorting machines, high-speed image processing, AI (deep learning) image processing, appearance inspection of metal parts, and PLC control design. We also develop and design automatic sorting inspection equipment using robots from scratch. For customers considering equipment automation within their factories, we provide automatic sorting machines, control panel design for equipment, robot implementation, and vision system implementation. 1. We primarily use KEYENCE, HALCON, and HALCON DL for image processing. We also support other image processing systems, including MERLIC. 2. For PLCs, we mainly use KEYENCE and Mitsubishi Electric products (we also handle other brands of PLCs) and utilize Beckhoff's TwinCAT 3. 3. We use robots from Denso Wave and Mitsubishi Electric. 4. For cameras, we use color/monochrome area cameras and line scan cameras, including Basler cameras, JAI UV cameras, JAI prism spectroscopic cameras, and KEYENCE cameras.
