Case Studies of Solving Problems
Problem: Large number of man-hours/personnel required for visual inspection
Visual inspection of weld appearance is a challenge at many worksites. This is because different inspectors have different criteria for judgment, and inspection omissions can occur. Bead Eye automates human visual inspections with a system, providing labor-saving and enhanced traceability.

Bead Eye makes it possible to automate visual inspection of weld appearance based on clear inspection criteria without omissions and oversights. A wide range of defects can be detected, including burn-through, pits, undercuts and spatter. After inspection, the inspection data can be saved on a PC that helps to enhance traceability.
