System and method for sorting ceramic tiles

Abstract

The invention relates to a production technology of ceramic tiles, in particular to a system and a method for sorting ceramic tiles. The system comprises a ceramic tile conveying mechanism, an image acquisition module, a master control module and a sorting module, wherein the image acquisition module, the master control module and the sorting module are connected sequentially. The method comprises the following steps of: conveying the ceramic tiles with artificial marks to a preset position; acquiring images at positions where the artificial marks are positioned on the ceramic tiles; finding corresponding areas of the positions where the artificial marks are positioned on the ceramic tiles on the images; analyzing the areas on the images to obtain analysis results; and moving the ceramic tiles to the preset site according to an execution instruction. By using the system and the method for sorting the ceramic tiles, workers only make marks on the ceramic tiles and move the ceramic tiles to the ceramic tile conveying mechanism, and the sorting operation is completed automatically by the sorting system, so that the defect caused by artificial sorting is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a tile production technology, in particular to a tile sorting system and method. Background technique [0002] Tiles are currently the most widely used building materials. In order to distinguish the quality of tiles, after the tiles are shaped, they usually need to be classified and graded according to their quality, so as to provide tiles of corresponding quality and grade to the market. [0003] The current specific operations for classifying tiles are as follows: [0004] First of all, according to the predetermined standard, experienced craftsmen are divided into different grades according to the quality of the tiles by visual inspection, and mark the tiles with a pen to represent the quality or grade of the tiles according to the different grades. [0005] Secondly, the sorting workers sort out the tiles according to the marks on the tiles, and place them in a centralized manner with different marks on time to realize t...

Problems solved by technology

[0007] Since the marking, conveying, sorting and placement in the prior art are all realized manually, various problems will be caused, for example, because the production volume of ceramic tiles is very large, the sorting workers need to carry out repeated work for a long time; After working for a period of time, due to the accumulation of factors such as physical fatigue, individual differences of sorting workers, and repetition, sorting workers will inevitably produce wrong picking and missing picking, which may cause the sorted tiles to be different from the quality grade marked. Inconsistency, resulting in wrong classification of tiles, which in turn will cause poor quality tiles to be mistakenly entered into higher quality categories, affecting the reputation of the company; it can also cause good quality tiles to be mistakenly entered into lower quality types, affecting corporate profits
