AI Technical Summary
Existing machine vision printing quality inspection systems cannot effectively distinguish artifact sources such as printing plate wear, blanket dirt, and optical system contamination, leading to misjudgments and prolonged ineffective downtime, reducing printing press operating rates and increasing consumable costs.
By constructing a gray-scale temporal sliding window between candidate regions and the background, calculating the symbol consistency ratio and amplitude ratio stability index, and fusing them into a coupling coefficient, combined with alarm confirmation and anti-repetition mechanisms, the quantitative separation of artifact sources and accurate fault root cause determination are achieved.
It significantly reduces downtime for maintenance, lowers unnecessary plate and blanket replacement costs, and improves the stability and maintenance efficiency of the printing process.
