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 it’s 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.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Computer Vision consist of algorithms, cameras, and computing hardware that allow machines to interpret visual information. In manufacturing, these technologies replace or augment human inspection by capturing images or video of products, then analyzing them with deep learning models to detect defects, measure dimensions, or verify assembly. Unlike simple image filters, […]
