Visual Defect Detection
Surface cracks, voids, scratches and dimensional errors. Proven on PCB, stamped components, moulded parts and pharma packaging.
Module 15 · Quality
Can you catch every visual defect at line speed, without shipping video to the cloud?
AI-powered visual inspection running entirely on edge devices — no streaming, no latency. Detect defects, anomalies, missing components and more at line speed. Models run on edge hardware and sync decisions to Zometric Core on-prem or on-cloud; only the verdict leaves the device, never the video.
What it does
Vision AI Edge Models — what you actually get.
Six capabilities, each tied to a decision your team is already trying to make.
Component Verification
Missing, wrong or misaligned components on assemblies. Solder joints, fasteners, label placement and fill levels — caught before they move forward.
Line-Speed Inference
Real-time detection at full production speed with no throughput compromise. Designed for high-speed automated lines.
100% On-Edge AI
Runs entirely on edge hardware. No video or audio streams, low latency. Decisions synced to Zometric Core on-prem or on-cloud — only the verdict leaves the device.
OCR & Code Reading
Part numbers, lot codes, date codes and barcodes — read directly from the line. Automate traceability capture without scanners or manual entry.
Anomaly Detection
Unsupervised model flags deviations from baseline — no labelled defect samples needed. Ideal for low-defect-rate and high-mix processes.
Pre-Trained & Custom Models
Deploy from a growing model library or train on your own images. Demonstrated: PCB, flame colour, missing component, liquid level and label verification.
Sorting & Misclassification
Wrong variants, mixed-part trays, incorrect orientation and mislabelled items — detected and flagged before dispatch or the next operation.
Person Identification
Register and identify workers on-device. Automate fire-drill attendance, detect PPE non-compliance and enforce skill-matrix-based machine authorisation — only certified operators at certified stations.
Platform Integration
Feeds In-Process Quality, Inspection and Continual Improvement modules with full defect traceability. Automotive, Electronics, Pharma, Chemicals and Food & Beverage.
Better Together
Modules that work alongside this one.
Zometric's modules share a single data backbone — adopting more of them compounds the signal-to-noise advantage.
