Abstract: An inspection system for inspecting rubber crumb includes a conveyor, lighting, a camera, and a controller. The conveyor is used to carry the rubber crumb. The lighting is positioned above the conveyor to illuminate the rubber crumb with at least 3,500 lumens. The camera is positioned adjacent to the lighting to take images of the illuminated rubber crumb in the lighted area. The controller receives the images from the camera and detects a contamination in the rubber crumb by determining whether there is a dark particle within the crumb. If a contamination is detected, it may be removed from the remaining rubber crumb.
