Abstract In this study, an inspection system for valve seal of automotive parts using standalone vision has been developed and presented. The system is comprised of eight CCD cameras, and mechanism that loads the automotive parts to the system for the inspection. An image processing algorithm for detecting two different types of defects of valve seals are developed, and the effectiveness of the algorithm is experimentally verified. Inspection process is completed in 0.7 second with acceptable accuracy condition. It is envisaged that this inspection system will have a wide application in the automotive part manufacturing industry in the future.
