With penetrating power, deconstruct invisible risks; with the eye of intelligence, redefine the boundaries of glass quality.
"X-ray TDI imaging technology: penetrate appearances to see the essence"
Industry Challenges
In consumer electronics, the purity of specialty glass directly determines product performance and user experience
Traditional visible-light inspection can only capture surface defects, but is helpless againstmicron-scale metal impuritiesdeep within the glass substrate
Inspection blind spots: metal impurities may be hidden inside the glass or beneath opaque coatings, where visible light cannot penetrate complex structures
Frequent false positives: surface textures and reflections are easily misjudged as defects, while real impurities go undetected
Lagging risk: offline sampling leads to delayed problem detection, and batch defects cause huge losses
Technological Innovation
X-ray TDI imaging vs. traditional visible-light inspection
We break through the limitations of traditional optics by introducingX-ray TDI (time delay integration) imaging technologyto redefine the standard for glass impurity detection
Deep penetration: X-rays penetrate the glass substrate to precisely capture internal metal (platinum) impurities, unaffected by structural obstruction
Dynamic synchronization: adapts to high-speed continuous production lines, performing non-destructive scanning while the glass is in motion, increasing inspection efficiency severalfold
Core Solution
Full-dimension transmissive inspection
From surface to depth, from flat to curved, X-ray TDI technology penetrates the full thickness of the glass, leaving metal impurities nowhere to hide
Intelligent defect traceability
: AI algorithms automatically correlate impurity location, size, and production process parameters to quickly pinpoint problems
Zero-interference online control
: no line stoppage, no contact required; real-time inspection results are output and linked to sorting systems, achieving a closed loop of "detect-intercept-optimize"
Technical Advantages
Breakthrough sensitivity: detection capability surpasses the limits of visible light, identifying metal particles as small as microns
Anti-interference design: eliminates interference from glass surface reflections, ink layers, and frosted textures on inspection results
