Image processing is an effective tool that can be used in manufacturing and material science areas. Delamination is one of the surface deformations observed in drilling. It is a limiting factor in the use of composite materials for structural applications. The images of the holes drilled in the coconut leaf sheath fiber-reinforced plastic composite are obtained using an image canner. These images are cropped and resized for each drill hole. The drilled hole in the image was detected by generating a mask. The delamination area is estimated using the distance transform and boundary tracing algorithm. It is evaluated by estimating the maximum damaged area to the actual drilled area.
