It’s
good practice to save images from failed inspections. As well as a
check that the vision system is making the correct decisions it’s a
useful process diagnostic tool. Get a run of rejections – look at
the images to see what’s going wrong or what’s changed. (Often
times there has been a gradual shift in something like mold tool
condition which changes reflectivity, giving rise to false rejects.)
And if you’re really on the ball, you’ll write out a bunch of
inspection data on every cycle.
But
managing that data can be a pain in the backside. If you do what I do
you have a single text file. That’s easy to set up but hardly user
friendly. It’s much better to create new folders on a daily, or
even shift, basis.
It’s
my understanding that “Vision
‘Base Folders’ Creator 2013”
is a handy little utility designed to simplify that chore. I haven’t
put it to the test myself yet, but as it seems like a good idea I
thought I’d share it with my community of readers and invite their
feedback.
So
please click the link and take a look. If it makes your working life
just a tad easier, let me know.

This utility may be usefull for some people, but in my case I would like something that would clean out the old files (maybe older than 7 days) and move files that are dumped into a folder based on thdate they were created. I dont want to copy and paste or change settings on a camera every day to save to a new folder. Anyone have an easy way of doing this?
