摘要 |
The present invention relates to a glass bottle inspection apparatus which can detect a defect at a specific location such as a bottle-mouth portion of a glass bottle by an imaging process. The glass bottle inspection apparatus includes an inspection unit having one or plural illuminating units (LED1 through LED6) configured to illuminate a glass bottle (1) and at least one camera (CAM1 through CAM4) configured to image light reflected from the glass bottle (1), configured to detect a defect at a specific location of the glass bottle. The apparatus has a controller (4) configured to control operations of the one or plural illuminating units (LED1 through LED6) and the camera (CAM1 through CAM4). The controller (4) controls the one or plural illuminating units (LED1 through LED6) individually to emit a pulsed light in synchronism with an image capturing timing of the camera (CAM1 through CAM4).
