A Multi-Parameter Inspection Platform for Transparent Packaging Containers: System Design for Stress, Dimensional, and Defect Detection
With increasing quality demands in pharmaceutical and cosmetic packaging, this work presents a unified inspection platform for transparent ampoules that synergistically integrates stress measurement, dimensional measurement, and surface defect detection. Key innovations include an integrated system architecture, a shared-resource task scheduling mechanism, and an optimized deployment strategy tailored for production-like conditions. Non-contact residual stress measurement is achieved using the photoelastic method, while telecentric imaging combined with subpixel contour extraction enables accurate dimensional assessment. A YOLOv8-based deep learning model efficiently identifies multiple surface defect types, enhancing detection performance without increasing hardware complexity. Experimental validation under laboratory conditions simulating production lines demonstrates a stress measurement error of ±3 nm, dimensional accuracy of ±0.2 mm, and defect detection [email protected] of 90.3%. The platform meets industrial inspection requirements and shows strong scalability and engineering potential. Future work will focus on real-time operation and exploring stress-defect coupling for intelligent quality prediction.
