Blind Rivet Inspection Machine

Blind Rivet Inspection Machine

Overview

The Openex Blind Rivet Inspection Machine is an intelligent, high-speed visual inspection system designed specifically for the automated quality control of blind rivets (pop rivets). It enables 100% inspection of each rivet, replacing traditional sampling methods with full automation and AI-powered precision.

Built with an industrial-grade camera system, precision optical setup, and deep learning algorithms, the machine ensures consistent detection of both dimensional deviations and surface defects.

Specifications

  • Inspection Speed: Up to 300 pcs/min
  • Inspection Type: Dimensional + Surface Defect Detection
  • AI Algorithm: Deep learning defect detection for micro scratches and bending
  • Lighting & Camera: High-resolution industrial cameras with multi-angle LED lighting
  • Feeding Mechanism: Low-noise vibration bowl + isolation cover
  • Output Sorting: Pneumatic ejectors (OK/NG separation)
  • System Integration: Supports MES, PLC, and SCADA communication

Key Features

  • High-Speed Performance: Up to 300 pieces per minute inspection speed, ensuring smooth integration into large-scale production lines.
  • AI Vision Algorithm: Embedded deep learning system detects microscopic scratches and rod damage that are invisible to the human eye.
  • Noise Reduction Design: Equipped with a soundproof feeding mechanism to reduce operational noise for a better working environment.
  • Real-Time Data & Traceability: Inspection results are logged automatically for production quality tracking and defect trend analysis.
  • Easy Integration: Modular design for quick setup and compatibility with MES/PLC systems.

Inspection Capabilities

  • Length Measurement: Total length of the rivet
  • Flange Geometry: Upper section height, lower section length, upper and lower diameters
  • Flange Diameter: Detects dimensional deviations and shape irregularities
  • Defect Detection: Detects bending of the rod, minor scratches, and micro impacts on slender shafts
