Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of RFID antenna production, in particular to an RFID antenna slitting and deviation detection system. Background Art
[0002] Slitting RFID antennas is a crucial step in the production process. Its accuracy and efficiency are directly linked to the quality of the final product and the overall effectiveness of the production line. Currently, RFID antennas are primarily cut using slitting machines. This step ensures that the antennas are cut to predetermined sizes and specifications, laying the foundation for subsequent rewinding.
[0003] However, after the RFID antennas are cut and before they are rewound, manual inspection is still required to verify the accuracy of the cuts, especially to confirm whether there are any cut offset issues. Unfortunately, this manual inspection method cannot fully ensure that all cut offset issues are identified in real time during the production process.
[0004] Currently, post-slicing inspection of RFID antennas relies primarily on human visual inspection. Limited by viewing angles and subjective judgment, this inspection method typically only allows for side inspection after slicing. This makes it difficult to accurately detect even minor deviations in the slit edges, increasing the risk of missed inspections. Furthermore, manual inspection is inefficient, extending production cycles and increasing costs. Utility Model Content
