Abstract

Quality control is considered an important process in manufacturing to minimise waste related to the manufacturing process. A way of performing quality control is with help of machine vision. Understanding all decisions that are to be made when designing a machine vision system for quality control is essential, but challenging. This research presents a method that aids decision-makers in the process of designing these machine vision systems for quality control so the efficiency of the decision-making process can be increased. The method results in a knowledge base and a tool that can both be considered as useful to decision-makers. The method was designed by following a Design Science Research approach and the method was applied on a use case in the automotive industry to prove that it addresses its goal.
