Discover how machine vision and AI are revolutionizing quality control in metal manufacturing. Learn about the limitations of manual inspection, the benefits of smart technologies, and how WKPT successfully implemented AI-powered visual inspection to improve efficiency and product yield. 

High-quality industrial brake system components are the key to maintaining safe operation of equipment. Especially in heavy industrial fields such as port cranes and construction machinery, the reliability of the brake system significantly affects operational safety and efficiency.

WKPT discovered abnormal tool vibration during a machining process and immediately initiated a root cause analysis. The team employed the 4M1E method to comprehensively investigate the causes of the problem. This serves as one of many root cause analysis examples in the manufacturing sector. Based on the investigation results, the company designed and implemented a complete solution:

Global trends indicate that environmental protection has become a universal value, with countries worldwide recognizing the importance of energy conservation and carbon reduction.

The precision quality of industrial products continuously improving, and the requirements of precision of parts manufacturing are also higher than before, which has reached the demand of micrometers (㎛).

Lathes play an important role in industry development, known as the mother of industry, and is the most important machinery in precision machining.

A robotic arm is an automatic control device that is similar to a human arm functioning and able to do various tasks. The main purpose of this automatic device is to complete the movements of the "wrist and hand". It can do the same movement correctly and repeatedly countless times, which will be a great help to improve the labor force and increase production efficiency.

According to the latest survey of Accenture Consulting, Industry 4.0 will add as much as $14.2 trillion to the global economy by 2030. The wave of smart manufacturing makes processes improve rapidly, and the inspection process is the key to ensuring the correct assembly of components and the safe operation of products.

Where there is an enterprise, there are workers. Ensuring the safety of workers is the base of an enterprise's sustainability as well as the focus of the business operation. The International Labor Organization (ILO) has already released an article on occupational safety and health in 1981. Since 2003, April 28 has been designated as "World Labor Safety and Health Day", to let more people pay attention to occupational hazards and prevention of occupational disease.
