Manufacturing Processes with AI-Powered Visual Inspection Configurable without programming skills, the MELSOFT VIXIO AI-powered visual inspection software is revolutionising quality assurance across industries.

 

Imagine a bustling factory floor where every product that rolls off the line is a testament to meticulous craftsmanship. Yet, no matter how skilled, the human eye can tire, and defects can slip through unnoticed in those moments of fatigue. The new Mitsubishi Electric MELSOFT VIXIO software helps avoiding this. Tirelessly vigilant it ensures that every product can meet the highest quality standards.

“Our visual inspection software transforms the inspection process, making it more accurate and efficient. It performs the heavy lifting of primary screenings, identifying potential defects with unmatched precision. Doing so liberates human inspectors to focus on what truly matters—ensuring that only the finest products reach the hands of consumers” - emphasises Daniel Sperlich, Strategic Product Manager Controllers at Mitsubishi Electric, Factory Automation EMEA.

How does it specifically work?

• Learning phase: The software learns what a "good" product looks like by reviewing many examples of good and bad items, similar to studying for a test. 
• Image processing: After learning, it analyses product images in real-time using algorithms to compare them against its training data.
• Decision making: Based on its analysis, the software gives products a "thumbs up" if they meet standards or a "thumbs down" if not, ensuring only quality products are sent out. 
• Feedback loop: The software improves over time; if it makes mistakes, engineers can update its learning data to enhance its accuracy in recognising products.

MELSOFT VIXIO is designed for ease of use and requires no specialised programming knowledge. Its intuitive interface allows users to set up three simple processes: making the picture dataset, creating the AI model by configuration, and generating the task via low-code. It demands only building with the help of low code instead of programming, making it accessible to everyone—from seasoned engineers to newcomers in the field.

As the tool debuts across the EMEA region, it targets industries ranging from automotive to food & beverage to life sciences and promises to enhance productivity and reduce waste and energy consumption.
