Revolutionizing Gasket Quality With DeepInspect

gasket quality inspection machine vision

Introduction

Gaskets are critical components used to seal the space between two mating surfaces, preventing leaks and ensuring optimal functionality in automotive, industrial, and other applications. Their reliability directly impacts product performance, safety, and durability. Even minor defects in gaskets, such as surface irregularities or misaligned holes, can lead to significant issues, including system failures, inefficiencies, and customer dissatisfaction. Traditional inspection methods often fall short in detecting these defects effectively, creating challenges for manufacturers.

Challenges- Why Traditional Vision Systems Struggle with Gasket Inspections?

Surface defects, incorrect hole counts, and optical character inaccuracies in gaskets can lead to leaks, misalignments, and product failures, compromising durability and disrupting supply chains. Identifying these multiple defects traditionally requires separate cameras and setups, increasing complexity, setup time, and costs. Manufacturers have struggled with these systems, finding them inefficient, error-prone, and unable to meet the demands of modern production workflows.

DeepInspect- AI Powered Quality Inspection Software for Gasket Manufacturers

DeepInspect® revolutionizes gasket visual quality control by enabling manufacturers to train AI models with fewer than 200 good images in just ~45 minutes, significantly reducing setup time. Utilizing a single-camera system, DeepInspect performs multiple inspections simultaneously on a single product within a single field of view, streamlining operations and delivering exceptional precision. This efficient approach ensures faster setup, consistent quality, and optimized production workflows for gasket manufacturers.

FAQ’s :

What hardware is required for DeepInspect? Do we provide hardware?

DeepInspect uses readily available industrial-grade hardware to ensure high repeatability and long lifespan. We provide a basic kit to help you get started, which includes a controller, camera, lights, and a PLC.

What speeds does DeepInspect support?

DeepInspect supports inspection speeds of up to 1000 parts per minute. The final speed depends on various factors, such as the number of cameras, lighting, and other line conditions. If you have a requirement above 1000 PPM, please contact us.

What cameras do we support?

DeepInspect supports all GenICam-compliant USB 3.0 and GigE cameras, giving you the flexibility to work with the hardware you already have on your production line. Fully tested and compatible brands include Basler, IDS, Baumer, Omron Sentech, Allied Vision, FLIR, HIK Robot, and Lucid Vision. We also support Area Scan, Line Scan, and Thermal cameras, covering a wide range of inspection environments and product types.

What kind of defects can DeepInspect capture?

DeepInspect is built specifically for defects that are random and unpredictable in nature, such as cracks, scratches, surface anomalies, missing components, seal failures, and label errors. Unlike rule-based systems that rely on a defect appearing at a fixed location or in a fixed pattern, DeepInspect uses AI models trained on your actual production data to recognize defects regardless of where they appear or how they look. This is exactly where AI inspection becomes critical: when a crack can appear anywhere on a part, or a scratch has no consistent shape or size, traditional vision systems fail. DeepInspect is trained to catch what others miss. The system has been successfully deployed across over 1,000 unique SKUs in automotive, pharma, electronics, and FMCG industries.
