EPIC Systems has utilized the Flexible Optical Character Verification (FlexOCV) image processing software from Cognex (Natick, MA, USA: www.cognex.com) for several high-speed OCR applications. The program is "flexible" because the algorithm begins with a trained set of characters, but modifies the trained set during production to "learn" how the code is being printed (Figure 3).

There are primary challenges to high speed applications in OCR: limited inspection time, increased variability in code printing (i.e. quality), and overall throughput capabilities of the vision system hardware. These challenges can sometimes cause higher false-fail rates.

Next, each character is compared to a trained set of characters and the highest match is returned. Lastly, the highest match percent is compared to a threshold value set by the user. If all returned characters are verified to be accurate to the known code and if the percent match is greater than the user-defined threshold, the vision system will pass the product under inspection.

Optical character recognition (OCR) vision systems help manufacturers improve brand reputation, achieve traceability and package compliance, as well as minimize the risk of recalls. Many product labels have common issues that can be prevented with an automated machine vision system, such as: wrinkles, typographical errors, incorrect date codes, misprints and general flaws.

An experienced vision system engineer will integrate the correctly specified camera, optics, lighting and processor into an automated machine vision system that minimizes or eliminates failed quality checks and product returns. OCR vision systems are used on high speed packaging lines across a variety of products and industries, including medical, pharmaceutical, automotive and consumer packaged goods.

Along with choosing the correct printer, a smart camera (Figure 2) solution or a PC-based solution is needed to inspect the product. Smart camera solutions utilize on-board processing but typically have limitations in inspection speed and throughput. Typical smart camera inspection speeds on a set of 20 characters may range from 40 to 200 milliseconds of time and may be ideal for part rates <600 parts per minute.

Printer capability and OCR vision system capability are not the same. Highly regulated products, such as pharmaceuticals, strive for >90% thresholds that match characters to a trained "perfect" database. These systems must be integrated with a vision system equipped with a very high printing accuracy rate. However, this can be difficult for many printers on the market to achieve, especially at high speeds. Consequently, OCR vision systems typically average 70%-85% accuracy thresholds to reduce false fail rates.

Other innovative software solutions include Matrox SureDotOCR algorithm which is part of the Matrox Imaging Library (MIL) from Matrox Imaging (Dorval, QC, Canada; www.matrox.com). Dot-matrix character printing poses many challenges. The SureDotOCR algorithm can handle deformed, skewed, and touching characters. In addition, the algorithm has a built-in method for finding and parsing the code, requiring minimal to no pre-processing of the camera image. The SureDotOCR algorithm compares the characters to a pre-defined or user-defined font.

Printing variables such as character-to-character spacing, scale, aspect ratio, and multi-line distances are learned and accounted for during a training phase of the algorithm. While this sometimes means a slight increase in false-failed product at the start of production during the training process, the flexibility of the algorithm to account for these printing variables allows the system to decrease inspection time significantly over time.

The power of this type of setup allows the vision solution to handle highly variable inspection times while still being able to meet high speed production rates. EPIC Systems has utilized such solutions at rates >1000 parts per minute. These solutions often require other hardware features. High-speed strobed lighting can reduce image blur (Figure 1), an encoder can be used for part tracking and a programmable logic controller (PLC) can be integrated for a myriad of automation requirements.

High speed OCR vision systems can take as little as 30ms and as much as 1000ms to process an image with two lines and about 30 characters. However, multi-core processing capabilities mean that a PC-based solution can handle multiple inspections at the same time in parallel.

To help increase the accuracy rate, printers should be specified to meet legibility requirements for OCR and tested thoroughly at actual part rates. An example specification is as follows:

Most smart cameras do not have parallel processing capabilities and inspection throughput can be limited. To reach part rates >600ppm, high speed PC-based solutions are typically required. PC-based solutions offer both, faster processors and parallel processing capabilities via multi-core processors.

OCR inspection is typically a three-step process. First, the vision system finds the alphanumeric code and determines its orientation, character-to-character spacing, size and scale based on pre-defined limits and then parses each character, including spaces, from the code.

Note that inspection rate can change drastically from one smart camera manufacturer to another, and that print quality and additional specifications can be a major factor in determining whether a smart camera solution is feasible.

Parallel processing increases the overall throughput of the system. For such systems, it is ideal to place the reject mechanism at a distance from the camera that allows for the maximum allowable inspection time.
