Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of capacitor production quality inspection technology, specifically an intelligent inspection system and method for capacitor production quality. Background Technology
[0002] In the mass production of capacitors, aging treatment is one of the key processes. By applying the rated voltage or slightly higher at a certain temperature, the oxide film inside the capacitor is repaired and improved, while products with inherent defects are prematurely degraded for removal. After aging treatment, the capacitors enter the final testing stage, where electrical parameters such as capacitance, loss tangent, and leakage current are measured to determine their qualification.
[0003] Current aging testing methods primarily employ batch processing, aging capacitors of the same model under identical temperature, voltage, and time conditions, and then using the static electrical parameters at the end of aging as the basis for acceptance. However, this method ignores the dynamic impact of individual capacitor state differences formed in previous processes on the aging process. Some capacitors, despite having potential defects such as microcracks, loose winding, or insufficient impregnation, may temporarily appear to have acceptable electrical parameters under uniform aging conditions, while actual internal damage has already evolved during the aging process. Because current testing focuses only on the final result and fails to capture dynamic characteristics reflecting the evolution of individual states, such as leakage current changes and capacitance recovery trends, these products are difficult to identify effectively and become a major source of early failure during user operation.

[0007] Step S200: Combining the statistical characteristics of each initial state category and the individual state stability index of each capacitor within the category, configure a corresponding personalized initial aging parameter scheme for each capacitor. The personalized initial aging parameter scheme includes differentiated aging temperature range, applied voltage range and reference aging time.
[0008] Step S300: Based on the personalized initial aging parameter scheme, perform aging treatment on a single capacitor at an independent workstation, and continuously collect leakage current and capacitance data during the aging process to obtain real-time aging response characteristics; match the real-time aging response characteristics with the preset standard response characteristics of this category to calculate the aging matching degree; determine whether the capacitor needs to be dynamically migrated to the category based on the aging matching degree; when it deviates from the current category trajectory, automatically migrate the capacitor to the target category and switch to the corresponding aging parameter scheme.
[0009] Step S400: Record the category migration trajectory, parameter adjustment process, and execution time of each stage for each capacitor to form an individualized aging profile; after aging is completed, test the final electrical parameters, and combine the individualized aging profile, aging matching degree, and final electrical parameters to make a comprehensive judgment and output the quality level of each capacitor.
[0010] Furthermore, step S100 includes:
[0011] Step S101: On the capacitor production line, the process parameters of each capacitor to be aged in the previous process stage are obtained through the production management system, including winding tension value, impregnation saturation value and oxide film thickness value; a unique identifier is created for each capacitor, a unique serial number is assigned to it, and the collected raw data is associated with and stored with the serial number; the collected raw data is preprocessed, outliers are removed and noise is smoothed using the moving average method to obtain the preprocessed parameter values;
[0012] Suppose there are n capacitors to be aged, each capacitor corresponding to three process parameter characteristics, denoted by x. ij This represents the j-th original characteristic value of the i-th capacitor, where j=1,2,3 correspond to winding tension, impregnation saturation, and oxide film thickness, respectively. First, the mean μ of the j-th characteristic value across all capacitors is calculated. j and standard deviation σ j Then, Z-score standardization is performed on each feature: x' ij =(x ij -μ j ) / σ j ;x' ij This represents the standardized value of the i-th capacitor based on the j-th feature.
[0013] Step S102: Standardize the value x ij By mapping to the [0,1] interval using range transformation, the probability value p is obtained. ij =[x' ij -min(x' ij )] / [max(x' ij )-min(x' ij )]; where p ijLet x' be the probability percentage of the i-th capacitor on the j-th feature; min(x') ij ) and max(x' ij ) represent the minimum and maximum values of all capacitors after standardization on the j-th feature, respectively;

[0019] Among them, w j This represents the weight of the j-th feature;
[0020] The state stability index is obtained by summing the standardized eigenvalues of each capacitor with their corresponding weights.
[0021] ;
[0022] Among them, Z i This represents the stability index of the i-th capacitor;
[0023] Step S103: Assign state stability indices {Z1, Z2, ..., Z} corresponding to all capacitors n As one-dimensional clustering sample points, the K-means clustering algorithm is used to perform initial state category division. Based on the production conditions and product specifications, a pre-set number of clusters K is used, and K state stability indices are randomly selected as initial cluster centers. The Euclidean distance from each sample point to its corresponding cluster center is iteratively calculated, and the sample is assigned to the nearest category. After each iteration, the cluster centers for each category are recalculated until the maximum number of iterations is reached, and clustering is completed after convergence. Each capacitor is assigned an initial category label C. i (0) ∈{1,2,…,K}, and record the cluster centers and sample standard deviations of each category to complete the initial state category division.
[0024] Furthermore, step S200 includes:
[0025] Step S201: Obtain the state stability index, the cluster center of the initial category, and the category number k for each capacitor. Calculate the difference between the individual state stability index and the cluster center of the category to obtain the individual deviation: D. i =Z i -Zc,k ; where D i Z represents the deviation of the i-th capacitor from its category; c,k Let k represent the cluster center of the k-th initial state category; k = {1, 2, ..., K}, where K is the total number of initial state categories.
[0026] Step S202: Based on the initial category number k and category cluster center Z c,k and individual deviation D i Configure personalized initial aging parameter schemes for each capacitor; preset the reference aging temperature T for the k-th category. base,k Reference applied voltage U base,k and the baseline aging time t base,k According to individual deviation D i By correcting the reference parameters, the individual parameters of the capacitor are obtained: U i =U base,k -λ U ·D i ;t i =t base,k +λ t ·D i Among them, U i Apply a voltage t to the i-th capacitor individually. i λ represents the personalized aging time for the i-th capacitor. U and λ t These are the preset voltage correction factor and duration correction factor; the aging temperature uses a category-unified value T. i =T base,k The final initial aging parameter scheme includes the aging temperature range, the applied voltage range, and the personalized aging time.
[0027] Furthermore, step S300 includes:
[0028] Step S301: Based on the personalized initial aging parameter scheme, each capacitor is placed in an independent aging stage and aging is performed according to its set aging temperature range, applied voltage range and personalized aging time. During the aging process, the leakage current value and capacitance value of the capacitor are continuously collected at a fixed sampling frequency and recorded as I(t) and C(t) respectively to form real-time leakage current curve and capacitance curve.
[0029] Step S302: Perform data preprocessing on the real-time acquired leakage current curve and capacitance curve, including outlier removal and moving average filtering. Then, extract the real-time aging response characteristics of the capacitor's internal state evolution from the preprocessed curves, including: leakage current stability value I. s Leakage current peak value I peak Leakage current fall time constant τ, capacitance recovery rate Ch and the capacitance plateau value C p ;
[0030] Among them, the peak leakage current I peak Within a preset time window at the initial stage of voltage application, the maximum value of the leakage current curve is taken as the peak leakage current; the stable leakage current value I... s In the later stages of aging, the average value of all sampling points within the last 10% of the leakage current curve is taken as the stable leakage current value; the leakage current fall time constant τ is obtained through exponential fitting, specifically: I(t) = I s +(I peak -I s )e -t / τ t represents the time variable, specifically the time elapsed from the start of voltage application during the aging process to the current sampling moment; the capacitance plateau value C p In the later stages of aging, the average value of all sampling points within the same time period as the leakage current stability value is taken; the capacitance recovery rate C h It is obtained by extracting the recovery segment of the capacitance curve from the initial value to the plateau value and performing linear fitting on the recovery segment data. The plateau value is the average value of the capacitance curve within a preset time interval after it enters the stable stage.
[0031] Therefore, for the i-th capacitor, a real-time aging response feature vector F is constructed. i =[I s,i ,τ i C h,i C p,i ];F i I s,i τ i C h,i C p,i Let represent the real-time aging response feature vector, leakage current stability value, leakage current fall time constant, capacitance recovery rate, and capacitance plateau value of the i-th capacitor, respectively.
[0032] Step S303: For the k-th initial state category, based on the aging response data of historical qualified samples of this category, calculate the mean of each feature to obtain the category standard response feature vector; calculate the standard deviation of each feature to obtain the corresponding feature standard deviation; after normalizing each feature, calculate the weighted Euclidean distance d between the real-time aging response feature of the i-th capacitor and the standard response feature of its category. i The calculation formula is:
[0033] ;
[0034] Among them, w m F represents the preset weight of the m-th aging response feature;i,m F represents the m-th real-time aging response characteristic value of the i-th capacitor; c,m σ represents the m-th standard response characteristic value of the current category; c,m This represents the standard deviation of the m-th feature in the current category; then, the aging matching degree M is calculated. i =exp(-d i );
[0035] Matching degree M i Compared with the preset migration threshold M th Compare; if M i ≥M th If the capacitor aging process is deemed to be in line with the current category expectations, the current category and aging parameter scheme should be maintained; if M i <M th If the capacitor deviates from the current category trajectory, dynamic category migration needs to be performed.
[0036] Step S304: For the capacitor to be transferred, calculate its real-time response feature vector F. i The matching degree between the capacitor and the standard response feature vectors of all other categories is used to select the category with the highest matching degree as the target category. The capacitor is automatically migrated to the target category and switched to the aging parameter scheme corresponding to the target category. The aging parameters after the switch need to be recalculated based on the individual deviation of the capacitor in the target category. At the same time, the time of this migration, the original category, the target category, and the parameter adjustment data are recorded. During the aging process, step S303 is repeated continuously at fixed time intervals until the personalized aging time of the capacitor is reached. Finally, the complete category migration trajectory of each capacitor in the entire aging process is recorded, including the number of migrations, the migration time, the category before and after the migration, and the parameter adjustment history of each stage.
[0037] Furthermore, step S400 includes:
[0038] Step S401: After the capacitor has completed the personalized aging process, test its final electrical parameters, including at least capacitance, loss tangent and leakage current, and compare these parameters with the specifications of the corresponding capacitor model. If any parameter exceeds the qualified range, the capacitor is directly marked as a defective product.
[0039] Step S402: For capacitors whose final electrical parameters are all qualified, obtain the complete aging process data recorded in step S300, including the number of migrations N. move Minimum matching degree M min and the matching degree is lower than the migration threshold M th Cumulative duration T move ; Calculate the overall stability coefficient of each capacitor: P i =Nmove ×(1-M min )×T move Among them, P i Let represent the overall stability coefficient of the i-th capacitor;
[0040] Step S403: Calculate the overall stability coefficient P for all qualified capacitors. i Perform statistical analysis and calculate its average value P. avg and standard deviation σ P According to P of each capacitor i The quality level is determined by the relationship between the value and the overall distribution: if P i ≤P avg -σ P If P is positive, the capacitor is considered a superior product, indicating that its aging process is stable; if P is negative, the capacitor is considered a superior product. avg -σ P <P i ≤P avg +σ P If P is within the acceptable range, the capacitor is considered a qualified product, indicating that its aging process is within the normal fluctuation range; if P i >P avg +σ P If the capacitor is found to be suspicious, it indicates that there are obvious abnormal fluctuations in its aging process, and further confirmation is required by retesting or short-term life test.
[0041] Step S404: Store the quality grade determination result, individualized aging record, and final electrical parameters of each capacitor in the production quality database. Simultaneously, extract the data of capacitors judged as non-conforming or suspicious products separately, and associate and store their preceding process characteristic data with the migration count, minimum matching degree, and abnormal cumulative duration during the aging process to form a defect feature library. If multiple non-conforming or suspicious products appear consecutively during subsequent production, and their preceding process characteristic distribution matches the abnormal patterns in the defect feature library, an automatic warning will be triggered, reminding process personnel to check whether there is any drift in the preceding process equipment status or process parameters, so that timely adjustments can be made.
[0042] A smart quality inspection system for capacitor production includes an initial classification modeling module, a personalized parameter configuration module, an adaptive aging control module, and a quality assessment module.
[0043] The initial classification modeling module collects the pre-process data of each capacitor to be aged, and creates a unique identifier for each capacitor; it calculates the state stability index based on the pre-process data, and dynamically classifies the capacitor into several initial state categories based on the state stability index.
[0044] The personalized parameter configuration module combines the statistical characteristics of each initial state category and the individual state stability index of each capacitor within the category to configure a corresponding personalized initial aging parameter scheme for each capacitor. The personalized initial aging parameter scheme includes differentiated aging temperature range, applied voltage range and reference aging time.
[0045] The adaptive aging control module performs aging treatment on a single capacitor at an independent workstation based on a personalized initial aging parameter scheme. During the aging process, leakage current and capacitance data are continuously collected to obtain real-time aging response characteristics. The real-time aging response characteristics are matched with the preset standard response characteristics of this category to calculate the aging matching degree. Based on the aging matching degree, it is determined whether the capacitor needs to be dynamically migrated to the category. When it deviates from the current category trajectory, the capacitor is automatically migrated to the target category and switched to the corresponding aging parameter scheme.
[0046] The quality assessment module records the category migration trajectory, parameter adjustment process, and execution time of each stage for each capacitor, forming an individualized aging profile. After aging is completed, the final electrical parameters are tested, and the quality level of each capacitor is output by combining the individualized aging profile, aging matching degree, and final electrical parameters.
[0047] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are:
[0048] This invention quantifies process parameters such as winding tension, impregnation saturation, and oxide film thickness into state stability indices through multi-feature fusion and adaptive clustering of previous process data, achieving accurate classification of the initial state of capacitors. This solves the problem of traditional aging processes using uniform parameters that cannot adapt to individual differences. Based on category features and individual deviation, personalized aging parameters are dynamically generated, avoiding under-aging, over-aging, or internal damage caused by uniform aging conditions, thus improving the targeting and rationality of the aging process.
[0049] Furthermore, this invention achieves online assessment and adaptive adjustment of aging status through real-time response feature matching and dynamic category migration during the aging process, overcoming the limitations of traditional detection methods that rely solely on final electrical parameters and cannot identify potential process hazards. Finally, it combines a comprehensive stability coefficient to achieve objective quality grading, while simultaneously associating and storing pre-process data and process anomaly features of defective and suspicious products to form a defect feature library, establishing an anomaly early warning mechanism, enabling reverse tracing of quality issues and process early warning, effectively improving the consistency and reliability of capacitors leaving the factory, and reducing defect rates and rework costs.
