Surface Defect Detection powered by AI computer vision transforms quality control in the steel industry. It automatically scans hot and cold rolled surfaces to identify cracks, scale, pinholes, laminations, dents, or scratches in real time, well before they move further in the process.
Surface flaws like pinholes, cracks, or inclusions often go unnoticed during visual inspections, leading to high rejection rates later.
Human-led surface checks are inconsistent, prone to fatigue, and may vary across shifts or lighting conditions.
Defects are often caught too late, after finishing or packaging, wasting time, effort, and material.
Manual checks or re-inspections cause bottlenecks, slowing down continuous steel production.
Captures ultra-clear visuals of steel surfaces to detect even the smallest of irregularities in real time.
Deep learning models trained to identify, categorize, and prioritize various surface defects instantly.
Operators receive instant notifications with defect type, location, and severity, enabling fast action.
Easily deployable on existing production lines without disrupting the process or requiring infrastructure overhaul.
Before cameras are placed, our team works closely with your QA and production heads to identify key defect-prone zones in your process, from roughing to finishing stages.
Unlike container OCR or standard object detection, steel surfaces require adaptive camera calibration to handle hot metal glare, scale, and high-speed movement. We tune exposure, frame rate, and sensor placement accordingly.
Using your past defect data (images, logs), we build a steel-grade-specific model that understands localized terminology and defect variations, whether its centerline cracks or transverse marks.
The model is installed alongside your HMI or MES systems. We enable shift-level visibility, automatic tagging for rework, and live dashboards. Testing is done under real heat-load, ambient light, and line-speed conditions.

Walk into a semiconductor fabrication plant in 2025 and you’ll see something that looks more like a science fiction set than a factory. Robots glide across spotless cleanrooms, wafers are carried through vacuum-sealed chambers, and machines whisper in precision rhythms. Each wafer that enters the fab is a canvas on which billions of transistors will […]

Semiconductor fabrication plants, commonly called fabs, are some of the most complex and expensive factories ever built. Inside cleanrooms that are thousands of times cleaner than a hospital operating room, wafers of silicon are transformed into chips that power the world’s smartphones, cars, medical devices, and satellites. Every wafer goes through hundreds of steps, lithography, […]

Every chip in your phone, your laptop, or even in a satellite, begins as a plain slice of silicon. But before that slice can become the heart of advanced electronics, it has to go through a series of complex processes. One of the least understood, yet most critical of these, is called Chemical Mechanical Planarization, […]
