【Release of Case Study Video on Die Casting Manufacturer】AI Visual Inspection "HACARUS Check" Achieving Labor Reduction and Quality Uniformity

Defects in complex-shaped castings and die-cast metal parts, which could only be inspected visually, can now be detected for abnormalities using AI inspection! Appearance inspection is possible with only good products.

■■■ Introduction case study video now available!! ■■■ The AI visual inspection system 'HACARUS Check' is an all-in-one package that automatically detects defects in complex-shaped workpieces such as die-cast and pressed products, utilizing "collaborative robots + cameras with lighting + high-performance AI." From image capture by the robot to OK/NG judgment by AI, we provide a one-stop solution. The video showcases a case study of a customer who struggled to secure visual inspectors and improved inspection accuracy through the introduction of HACARUS Check, reducing the number of inspectors by one-third. ■ 360-degree inspection The 6-axis robotic arm, illuminated ring lighting, and rotating lift platform work together to detect defects in hard-to-image areas. ■ Small quantity, good quality, fast learning Thanks to HACARUS's unique AI technology, there is no need to collect defective product data; high-precision AI can be quickly built from a small amount of good product data. ■ Easy installation Compact design, operates on 100V power supply. Overall dimensions: 1555mm × 740mm × 860mm (fixed with caster-equipped adjusters). *For more details, please visit the product special site below⬇︎

AI visual inspection software runtime license for on-site use / AI continues to learn from work while conducting inspections, suppressing false positives.

■HACARUS Check AI Software Runtime License By allowing AI to learn "continuously," "quickly," and "frequently," it can consistently deliver results from a single system development, even as the inspection targets change over time. This helps to suppress the occurrence of false positives and reduces the time and costs associated with additional system development. <Background> In traditional visual inspection systems, due to time-related changes such as mold wear, system development was required every time the workpiece changed, and without modifications, false positives would occur. The runtime license allows the AI in HACARUS's visual inspection system to continue learning about time-related changes while operating in the inspection process after implementation. <Runtime License Price> 990,000 yen (up to 5 units, thereafter 198,000 yen per unit) *For more details, please contact us.
