Milled Surface Inspection

Surface Quality Control on Machined (Milled) Parts

Overview

This functionality enables automatic detection of surface defects on milled parts. It analyzes the texture and appearance of machined surfaces using visual data captured from industrial cameras.

Why It Matters

Even minor surface defects can lead to product rejection or failure in critical applications. Early detection of surface imperfections ensures consistent product quality, reduces waste, and improves downstream reliability.

Where It’s Used

  • Healthcare / Medical
  • Chemical Production
  • Food and Beverage
  • Biolabs
  • Automotive
  • Aerospace

Capabilities

  • Detection of multiple types of defects (scratches, dents, chips, etc.)
  • Zone-based defect tolerance setup
  • Adjustable thresholds for defect size and count per zone
  • Integration with defect counting and defect size modules
  • High-resolution surface texture analysis
  • Compatible with AI or rule-based evaluation

How It Works Together

This functionality inspects machined (milled) surfaces by combining several AI modules. The system detects various types of defects, measures them, and validates whether their location and size fall within acceptable thresholds. Custom inspection zones and limits can be configured per part geometry and tolerance policy.

  • Configurable tolerance thresholds for defect size and quantity
  • Support for defining specific inspection zones
  • Detection of pores, cracks, scratches, chips, and other surface anomalies

Example Use Case

A milled metal plate is scanned during production. The system checks for scratches, dents, or contamination across different zones. Each zone has its own threshold for acceptable defect size or quantity. The system flags any area exceeding limits as NOK (not okay).
