OCR recognition+barcode reading - an intelligent guardian of printing quality in one step

OCR recognition+barcode reading - an intelligent guardian of printing quality in one step

On the production line of a large printing enterprise, sensors are installed on the equipment to ensure the accuracy and readability of barcodes for barcode printing and OCR recognition detection.

 

On the production line of a large printing enterprise, the printing machine needs to complete a large number of barcode printing tasks. To ensure the accuracy and readability of barcodes, sensors need to be installed on the device for barcode printing reading and OCR recognition detection.

 

1. Sensors need to accurately identify the information in the barcode and compare it with the preset standard information to detect whether the barcode is complete and correct

2. At the same time, the sensor also performs OCR recognition on the printed text information to detect whether the text is complete, clear, and whether there are printing errors

1. Image preprocessing:

Perform denoising, binarization, smoothing, and other operations on scanned or captured document images to improve image quality and text clarity. Through preprocessing, interference factors such as background noise and shadows can be effectively removed from the image, providing high-quality input images for subsequent text localization and recognition.

 

2. Position correction:

Responsible for locating and segmenting text regions in preprocessed images. By using algorithms such as projection analysis and edge detection, OCR systems can accurately determine the position and size of text regions and separate them from the background. The accuracy of text positioning directly affects the subsequent recognition effect, so this step is crucial for the performance of OCR systems.

 

3. Code reading and OCR recognition:

The OCR algorithm recognizes the located text area through a trained model and converts the text in the image into computer editable text.

By triggering the machine vision sensor with a visual sensor, the label image is sent to the system. The system extracts and analyzes the image and compares it with the set information to determine whether the product has missing or incorrect information such as coding and production batch number.

 

4. Test result output:

When missing, incomplete, or printing errors are detected, the system emits an audible and visual alarm and sends out a rejection signal.

The detection results and effect images are displayed on the HMI main interface for the staff to view and process in a timely manner.

 

Verification shows that Akusense CDS-X20 series visual sensor is suitable for "code reading+OCR recognition" on printing machines. By applying the CDS-X20 visual sensor, enterprises can greatly improve the detection efficiency and accuracy of barcode printing, reduce production costs and waste, and enhance product quality and competitiveness.
