Abstract

For its good mechanical, thermal, and chemical property, ceramic materials are widely used in construction, chemical industry, electric power, communication and other fields. However, due to its particularity and complex production process, quality problems usually occur, of which the most common one is surface defects. For ceramic products, the defects are usually small and complicated, and manual methods are difficult to ensure the accuracy and speed of detection. Relevant researchers have proposed a variety of machine vision-based ceramic defect detection methods, but these methods still need to break through in solving the key problems of ceramic surface glaze reflection, complex detection environment, low algorithm efficiency and low real-time performance. To this end, this article reviews the application status of machine vision on ceramic surface defect detection in recent years, summarizes and analyzes the existing non-destructive testing (NDT) technology method, and points out the main factors that affect the development of ceramic surfaces defect detection technology and puts forward the corresponding solutions.
