Abstract
A defect detection system and method for detecting the presence of a defect in an extruded strip can include various elements. In examples, a thermal imagining sensor is used to detect a plurality of surface temperatures on a surface of the extruded strip. A processing unit is configured to generate a thermal map of an area of the surface of extruded strip. The processing unit is further configured to determine whether the plurality of surface temperatures are outside a tolerance range, indicating the presence of a defect in the extruded strip. Detecting a defect during the extrusion process can help achieve the goal of reducing manufacturing waste and increasing quality control.
