Container handling system
ActiveUS20070051073A1Smooth for label placementThorough removalCapsDecorative coversBlow moldingStructural geometry
A system for processing a simplified plastic container (C) that is to be filled with a hot product includes the step of blow-molding parison to form a container body, where the container body has a neck, a base, a side surface relatively free of structural geometry that surrounds an interior of the container body and, prior to being filled with the hot product, a projection (12) extending from the container body. After the container body is filled with a hot product in a production line, the neck of the filled container body is capped with a cap and then, the container body is cooled. During the cooling operation, the hot product is contracted so that the projection extending from the container can be pushed (P) into the container body like a traditional push-up so that the resultant, filled and cooled container body is relatively free of structural geometry.

System and method for runtime determination of camera miscalibration
ActiveUS20110157373A1Faster and and diagnosisImage enhancementImage analysisMulti cameraCamera auto-calibration
This invention provides a system and method for runtime determination (self-diagnosis) of camera miscalibration (accuracy), typically related to camera extrinsics, based on historical statistics of runtime alignment scores for objects acquired in the scene, which are defined based on matching of observed and expected image data of trained object models. This arrangement avoids a need to cease runtime operation of the vision system and / or stop the production line that is served by the vision system to diagnose if the system's camera(s) remain calibrated. Under the assumption that objects or features inspected by the vision system over time are substantially the same, the vision system accumulates statistics of part alignment results and stores intermediate results to be used as indicator of current system accuracy. For multi-camera vision systems, cross validation is illustratively employed to identify individual problematic cameras. The system and method allows for faster, less-expensive and more-straightforward diagnosis of vision system failures related to deteriorating camera calibration.

Method for slap-and-ship RFID labeling
ActiveUS20070126578A1Function can be ensuredEasy to placeDigital data processing detailsCo-operative working arrangementsCrateEmbedded system
A method for applying at least one RFID product tag to each of a plurality of products and to a product-containing container. Each product, case, or box is first unloaded from a container (e.g. pallet, tote, crate) or passed directly from manufacturing onto a conveyor whereon each item receives at least one RFID tag. Each RFID tag is then verified. Multiple items are then re-stacked in a container. An RFID tag is applied to the container and then the RFID tags are verified again before the container is shipped. Serialized numbers corresponding to products and containers are assigned and tracked. EPC data is stored on, or associated with, each RFID tag. RFID tags are verified to detect faulty placement and non-functionality. Non-functioning and poorly placed RFID tags are replaced before passing verification. The slap-and-ship line can handle execute-and-record methods and synchronized execution methods of handling product and associated data.

A method of making a lead frame and a partially patterned lead frame package with near-chip scale packaging (CSP) lead-counts is disclosed, wherein the method lends itself to better automation of the manufacturing line as well as to improving the quality and reliability of the packages produced therefrom. This is accomplished by performing a major portion of the manufacturing process steps with a partially patterned strip of metal formed into a web-like lead frame on one side, in contrast with the conventional fully etched stencil-like lead frames, so that the web-like lead frame, which is solid and flat on the other side is also rigid mechanically and robust thermally to perform without distortion or deformation during the chip-attach and wire bond processes, both at the chip level and the package level. The bottom side of the metal lead frame is patterned to isolate the chip-pad and the wire bond contacts only after the front side, including the chip and wires, is hermetically sealed with an encapsulant. The resultant package being electrically isolated enables strip testing and reliable singulation without having to cut into any additional metal.

Quality control system for manufacturing industrial products
InactiveUS20060047454A1Quality improvementResourcesSpecial data processing applicationsManufacturing technologyProgram planning
In a quality control system for manufacturing industrial products, the product quality history and the manufacturing process history are collected and collated to calculate the correlation magnitude between the two histories. The candidates for the cause of quality variation hidden in the manufacturing processes are listed, and the correlation magnitude between all combinations of the variates of the manufacturing process history are calculated. Further, by utilizing the manufacturing sequence history used for an input plan, a causation connecting structure model between the manufacturing processes of the manufacturing line is automatically generated and automatically analyzed thereby to automatically extract the fundamental cause of quality variation from the candidates for the cause of quality variation. By doing so, the cause of quality variation of industrial products manufactured through a complicated process can be traced in a complicated connecting structure in the manufacturing history data.
