AI visual inspection — the camera sees defects the human eye misses
See It in Action
An AI camera checks every product on the line in real time — without fatigue, without missed defects:
Novak Plastics: inspector checks 2000 parts a day — but errors multiply after lunch
Novak Plastics manufactures plastic components for the automotive industry. Quality inspector Peter stands at the line for eight hours and checks every part visually and by touch. In the morning he is precise — in the afternoon, after six hours of concentration, 5% of defective parts slip through. A customer in Germany returns the entire delivery. Costs for the claim, return shipping and re-manufacturing exceed 200 000 CZK per year. Nobody blames Peter for fatigue — it is natural. But the problem remains.
After installing an industrial camera with AI, the system inspects every part automatically in 0.3 seconds. It detects cracks, uneven surfaces, incorrect dimensions and defects smaller than 0.1 mm. Any defective part is immediately ejected from the line. Peter now only reviews borderline cases that the AI flags as "uncertain" — and spends his time on genuinely higher-value work. Customer returns dropped to zero.
Before and after AI
❌ Before AI
- Human inspector tired after 6+ hours of continuous inspection
- 5% of defective parts missed and shipped to the customer
- Customer returns, delivery recalls
- 200 000 CZK per year lost to claims and re-manufacturing
- Damaged reputation with key clients
✅ After AI
- Camera + AI inspects every part in 0.3 seconds, non-stop
- Defect detection accuracy 99.5% — no fatigue, no variation
- Defective part automatically ejected in real time
- Zero customer returns for defective products
- Inspector focuses on complex tasks with added value
