An exemplary embodiment may include a control hub configured to receive data from an emissions analyzer and a leak detection camera. The emissions analyzer may detect levels of various gases and relay such information to the control hub. In an exemplary embodiment, the emissions analyzer may purge after every test to ensure longevity and accuracy. A leak detection camera may implement quantifying optical gas imaging in order to continuously monitor for fugitive leaks on a compressor package. If a leak is detected, it may be logged and the user or an operating group may be alerted.

A method for controlling a process for forming glass containers (2) includes the steps of extracting a so-called sample container, acquiring by means of a tomography apparatus (30) several X-ray images of the sample container from different projection angles, sending the X-ray images to a computer (38), and analyzing the X-ray images using a computer. A three-dimensional digital model of the sample container is constructed in a virtual reference frame on the basis of the X-ray images. The position of the three-dimensional digital model with respect to the position of the sample container in a mold reference frame is determined and the three-dimensional digital model is analyzed to determine at least one quality indicator (A) of the sample container.

A test specimen for validating operating parameters of a method for the additive manufacturing of a part by laser melting on powder beds includes at least one upper face, at least one lower face and side faces, including a front side face and a rear side face that are substantially on opposite sides from one another. The test specimen has at least one recess opening onto the front and rear side faces, the recess having a substantially triangular cross sectional shape being delimited by three internal faces, including a first lower internal face oriented upwards, a second upper internal face oriented downwards, and a third upper internal face which defines a narrow wall with one other of the side faces, which is inclined.

A system for colored woven label fabrication includes an image processing device, a yarn coloring mechanism and a weaving machine. The yarn coloring mechanism colors a yarn to be woven into a colored woven label by the weaving machine according to a weaving electronic file generated by the image processing device.

Performance mapping of equipment performance parameters by capturing, mapping, and/or structuralizing equipment performance data of a device for installation in a system. This includes generating performance maps which outline the expected feature performance parameter behavior of the equipment based on a set of operating parameters that capture the operating conditions. Each performance parameter on the map is representative of an operating point of specific operating conditions taken at a particular point in time. In one example, a performance parameter can be defined by an individualized set of parameter coefficients which in turn are dependent on instantaneous operating conditions. With the performance maps determined individually for devices as part of the system, and stored along with a time of testing, activities such as continuous commissioning, monitoring and verification, preventative maintenance, fault detection and diagnostics, as well as energy performance benchmarking and long term monitoring can be performed.

A computer-implemented system and process of producing a metric quality grade profile for use during inspection of DPM symbol marked on parts may include storing average metrics measured in a controlled environment for a golden sample. Measurements of the DPM symbol of the golden sample may be performed. Measurements of the metrics of the golden sample in an uncontrolled environment may be performed. Average metrics from the uncontrolled environment may be calculated. The averaged metrics from the controlled and uncontrolled environment may be compared. The user may be enabled to set an acceptable grade for the individual metrics. The acceptable grades for the individual metrics as a profile of the DPM symbol in memory.

A system and method for automated visual inspection is provided herein. The method includes providing an inspection image of the article to an object detection model trained to detect at least one defect type in an input image and generating object location data identifying a location of a detected object in the inspection image; comparing the inspection image to a golden sample image to identify an artifact in the inspection image corresponding to a difference between the inspection image and the golden sample image, wherein the artifact is defined by artifact location data describing a location of the artifact in the inspection image; and determining whether the artifact location data matches the object location data according to predetermined match criteria.
