Advances in AI Quality Inspection in Manufacturing

TapTechNews September 22nd news, according to China News Agency report, the World Manufacturing Convention is held in Hefei, Anhui from September 20th to 23rd. The new-generation information technology exhibition area of the convention shows two sections: 'Advanced Photovoltaic and New Energy Storage' and 'New-generation Information Technology (Chip, Screen, Soul, Terminal)', with a total of 263 exhibits on display.

In the exhibition area of the National Intelligent Speech Innovation Center, the staff demonstrated on-site the household appliance AI quality inspection device and the automated AI detection system. Zhao Yixiao, a staff member of the National Intelligent Speech Innovation Center, said: 'The first application of air conditioner inner unit quality inspection realizes the upgrade from 'human ear blind listening discrimination' to'machine voiceprint automatic recognition'. This exhibition area simulates the real assembly line scene, combines artificial intelligence technologies such as voiceprint, machine vision and cognition, and realizes AI quality inspection through algorithms.

According to TapTechNews understanding, in traditional industries, quality inspection mainly depends on human eyes and ears, which not only affects the quality inspection effect but also reduces the speed. AI quality inspection can not only ensure the accuracy but also greatly improve the speed.

Zhao Yixiao said that currently, AI quality inspection products have been implemented in household appliance enterprises such as Haier and Gree, covering categories such as air conditioner inner units, outer units, washing machines, and water heaters. The number of quality inspection products has reached two million, and the accuracy exceeds 99%.

In addition to the household appliance industry, this AI quality inspection product can also be applied to manufacturing industries such as automobiles and photovoltaic semiconductors.
