ABSTRACT:
A non-contacting optical inspection system for detecting blemishes in sheet material, of the kind in which light directed onto the sheet as it flows past an inspection head is reflected onto photosensitive detectors, is provided with means for varying the relative sensitivities of the system to optical defects, such as spots, and mechanical defects, such as lumps or creases, so that the system can be adjusted to be equally sensitive to both types of defect. The inspection head containing lamp, photosensitive detectors and a collimating system including apertures through which reflected light is transmitted to the detectors, is so mounted that it can be raised and lowered and also rotated about a horizontal axis to enable the angle of incidence of light on the sheet material to be varied while maintaining the distance of the aperture from the sheet substantially constant.
