•Enables automation
•Build a complete manifest
of what goes into a product
•Track from cradle to grave
▪Requirements
•Marking

Code Verification –Check the handwriting
▪Marking processes drift from nominal
settings ultimately leading to unreadable
marks
▪Verification allows adjusting of marking
process before unreadable marks are
made
▪Verification is metrology tool to ensure
consistent mark quality
▪Verifier can tell not only that mark is
readable but also how close it is to edge
of readability that it is
Measurement value
Frequency

▪Offline or Inline symbol verification
▪Verify or validate the symbol immediately after printing
▪Deviate from the standards if process or circumstances require
▪Provide results that correlate directly with ISO standards
▪Verification ensures that EVERY product ships with a good quality symbol despite
the fact that every marking system will degrade over time
Without verification, some “bad”
parts escape into the process With verification, we prevent bad
marks from ever being made.

ISO15416 - 1D Label Verification
▪ISO 15416
•1D on Labels
•Requires even
illumination
•Requires good
lens with high
MTF

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.16
ISO15415 - 2D Label Verification
▪ISO 15415
•2D on Labels
•Requires even
illumination
•Requires good
lens with high
MTF
▪Modulation

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.17
ISO 29158 - 2D DPM Verification
▪ISO 29158
•Direct Part Marks
•More forgiving spec
•Requires application
specific lighting

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.18
▪Direct inkjet printing is economical
▪But the results are not always pretty
▪No reads at big retail customers result in fines for each
unreadable code
▪Inline verification after printing ensures NO bad symbols ship
Verification Example: Inkjet on cartons

Code Verifiers
▪Offline
•Handheld label and DPM verifier –LVS-9580, LVS 9585
•Desktop Verifier –LVS-9510
▪Inline
•Fixed mount inline verifier –MicroHAWK MV, HAWK MV-4000
LVS-9580, LVS 9585 LVS-9510 MicroHAWK, HAWK MV

Code Verification at the printing source

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.21
▪Show and Go Tool - Validate printed text by training on a good sample
▪Detects common printing problems and provides pass/fail output
▪Symbols are compared against trained golden symbol
▪Symbols are rejected if the total residue exceeds the set tolerance
▪Optional tests for Largest single defect, character breaks, contrast, and blurriness

Presence/Absence of Critical Parts and Features
▪Count Pixels
•Within range of
grayscale intensity
•Edge pixels
(brightness
invariant)
▪Tolerance
•Compare count to
min and max values
▪Output
•Pixel count

Presence/Absence using Color
▪Color ID
•Determine color
from library of
colors
▪Color Check
•Compare color to
one specific color
▪Tolerance
•Compare pixel
count to min values
▪Output
•Color
•Count of pixels
•Pass/Fail

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.29
Count
▪Locate features
•Shape based

offset for “pickup
down the belt”
▪Intellifind Tool
•Edge Based Pattern Matching
•Allows 360 degree rotation
•Allows scale changes
•Lighting invariant

Assembly
▪Train pattern of points on
each part
▪Compute offset of part 1
to blueprint
▪Compute offset of part 2
to blueprint
▪Compute offset part 1 to
part 2
▪Output X, Y, Theta to
assemble part 1 onto
part two
▪Uses “rigid body fit”
algorithm

Defect Detection
▪Often difficult –Defects similar in size and shape to allowed features
▪Highly dependent on lighting to create contrast

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.35
Defect Detection –Lighting Dependency

© Omron Microscan Systems Inc.36
Defect Detection –Using OCV
▪OCV is not just for
characters
▪OCV can be used for
individual shapes or
symbols
▪OCV computes
difference between
trained and
inspected shape
▪OCV combined with
color checks is very
powerful
