AI Inspector

Real-time quality inspection
at production-line speed.

Detect defects in real time. Keep the line moving. Build a quality record that holds up to downstream scrutiny.

The problem

The cost of missing a defect on a roll.

trending_down

Night-shift drift

Visual inspectors fatigue. Night-shift performance drops, and the cost only surfaces when a downstream claim arrives.

payments

Downstream cost multiplier

Defects discovered after cutting or dyeing cost many times more than catching them at the roll.

description

Records that break under pressure

Quality records on paper or scattered spreadsheets break down when a real dispute happens.

speed

Speed without QC scaling

Lines run faster every year, but visual QC headcount cannot scale with speed.

What you get

Four things, delivered to your line.

history_edu

A quality record for every roll

Each roll comes off the line with a complete log: defect type, position, severity rank, meter mark. One click exports a clean PDF or CSV — ready to share with your customer or feed into your MES.

Per-defect record: drill-in image, severity score, meter-position evidence

Per-defect drill-in — severity, position by meter, original image. Exportable per roll.

notifications_active

Real-time alerts

The moment a defect appears, it shows up on the operator console and triggers the stack light at the line. The operator decides: continue, mark, or stop. AI provides the evidence; the operator keeps the decision.

A single alert card: defect ID, category, position, dimensions, severity

The alert card the operator sees the moment a defect appears — ID, category, mm-precise position and dimensions.

model_training

Adapts to your line

Run a few rolls of your normal product through the system once — that's all the setup it needs. You don't have to photograph or label every kind of defect. Every operator tap ("real" or "false alarm") fine-tunes it further. Adding a new style takes a shift, not a season.

Operator console: live fabric scan with detected defects accumulating in the right rail

The operator console — each one-tap confirmation feeds back into the system.

hub

Fits your existing systems

Connects to Huansi and SAP ERP frameworks, standard PLCs, stack-light towers, and any in-house MES via simple data exports. The system fits your factory, not the other way around.

How it works

A day in three roles.

engineering

Operator

  1. looks_oneStart of shift — select the product and roll on the console.
  2. looks_twoLine starts. Console shows live footage with defects boxed as they are detected.
  3. looks_3One tap to confirm "real" or "false alarm". The line continues.
  4. looks_4End of roll — system shows summary, operator signs off.

QC Supervisor

  1. looks_oneOpen the shift dashboard at the start of mid-shift review.
  2. looks_twoSpot-check flagged rolls — view defect images alongside the operator's call.
  3. looks_3Sign off rolls that match acceptance standards.
  4. looks_4Export the day's customer-grade quality report in one click.

Why Pindeed

What sets AI Inspector apart.

label_off

No defect labeling required

Show the system normal samples; it finds what is not normal. Extending to a new product style does not require collecting and labeling defect example images — the cost most off-the-shelf vision systems force on you with every new style.

style

You define the defect taxonomy

Your QA glossary, your defect names, your grouping logic. The system maps recognized anomalies to the categories you choose — categories, severities, and acceptance thresholds are all configurable. No vendor-imposed defect list.

Your data stays in your factory

All inference, storage, and reporting runs on-premise in the line cabinet. No images, no records, no production data leave the factory. No cloud dependency to break a night shift.

verified

Built for the factory floor

Unattended night-shift operation, bilingual operator interface (Chinese / English), native integration with the ERPs Chinese textile mills already run — Huansi and SAP. Remote support only when you open the door.

Deployment

Four steps to a working line.

Step 01

Cabinet on line

One inspection cabinet placed next to the line. No cloud upload, no data leaving your factory.

Step 02

Cameras & lighting

Cameras and lighting installed once. Calibration done by Pindeed engineers.

Step 03

Product library

Typical styles run through; the system learns your line.

Step 04

Secure remote support

Available when invited. The system runs without us.

Integrations

Works with what you already have.

SystemHow we connect
ERP systemsNative integration with Huansi ERP. Standard data export to SAP QM module. CSV / API export for any in-house MES.
Standard PLCReceives line speed; sends defect events.
Stack-light towerConfigurable alert behavior — colour, blink, buzzer.
Frequently asked

Questions buyers ask first.

How long does deployment take?

Typically 3–4 weeks from contract to commissioning, including hardware installation, line calibration, and initial product library build.

What happens when the AI flags a false alarm?

The operator marks the alert as "false alarm" with one tap. The judgment is recorded and feeds the system's adaptation to your line.

Does my data leave the factory?

No. All inference, storage, and reporting run on the on-premise cabinet. Remote support uses a secure tunnel only when invited.

Can it work with our existing cameras?

A standard installation uses our specified cameras and lighting to guarantee detection quality. Existing camera reuse is evaluated case by case.

What training is required for operators?

A typical operator is productive after 2 hours of training. The system's day-to-day use is one-tap confirm or reject.

Is the system exclusive to one mill?

Each deployment is delivered as a dedicated cabinet per line. License terms are discussed during commercial conversations.

How is AI Inspector priced?

Per-line pricing depends on camera count, line width, and integration scope. We provide a detailed written quote after a line walkthrough — indicative ranges and licensing terms are discussed during the demo.

Is there warranty and ongoing support?

Hardware carries a 12-month warranty. An optional annual support contract covers remote support, priority response, and software updates. Specific terms are confirmed during commercial conversations.
