Abstract

The material hanging on moulds after EVA shoe removal, is to be removed before next batch to be prepared otherwise the left hanging material will disrupt the fineness and smoothness of the prepared shoe of the incoming new batch. The human error is evident in inspection & detection. So, automation in shoe industry for defect inspection and analysis is must, resulting in quality in production and also time saving methodology in mass production. The purpose of this work is to design the system which monitors whether the moulds are cleaned properly after to obtained good quality shoes as end result. In this work the identification of clean and unclean moulds is focused on the methods using MATLAB. First, we extract certain features from the input mould image, later using different method like thresholding, segmentation, k-means clustering and thus obtain related databases. From the proposed method able to identify the cleaned and uncleaned moulds with accuracy successfully using image processing.
