The first AI visual inspection compatible with FANUC collaborative robots: An AI visual inspection solution that automates the visual inspection of complex-shaped automotive metal parts and more.

New Release on June 23: 'HACARUS Check for FANUC CRX Series' This is the first AI visual inspection solution compatible with the FANUC collaborative robot CRX series, achieving complete automation of inspections. To celebrate the launch, we will hold a special price introduction campaign for the first two companies from August 1 to September 30, 2023. There are conditions for applying the campaign, such as the possibility of publicizing case studies, so please contact us for more details. (*The campaign has ended.) ■ Product Features By integrating the FANUC CRX series with the HACARUS Check AI software, which specializes in small quantities, high-quality, and rapid learning, we have made it possible for companies to handle a diverse range of products in small quantities on their own. Additionally, there are no restrictions on the weight or size of the workpieces, similar to HACARUS Check. The solution offers high versatility in the field, and there are no additional development costs. We also provide options for those looking to reduce initial setup costs from the complete automation package for visual inspections. Customization consultations are available based on inspection challenges and environmental conditions.

AI automatically detects defects in metal parts and other items using only good products! AI visual inspection is now possible for complex shapes like die-castings, which could only be inspected visually before.

The AI visual inspection system "HACARUS Check" is an all-in-one package that automatically detects defects in workpieces using "collaborative robots + cameras with lighting + high-performance AI." It can be implemented as a one-stop solution from imaging with robots and cameras to AI's OK/NG judgment. With the ability to conduct 360-degree inspections, it is suitable for complex-shaped workpieces such as die-cast and machined products, achieving reductions in inspection labor and standardization of quality. ■ Target Workpieces Small automotive parts, die-casting, metalworking and processing, press processing, plating, bearings, textiles, rubber, resin, plastics, ceramics, etc. ■ Features 1. 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. 2. Small Quantity, Good Quality, Fast Learning AI Thanks to HACARUS's unique AI technology, there is no need to collect defective product data; a high-precision AI can be quickly built from a small amount of good product data. 3. Easy Installation Compact design, operates on 100V power supply. Overall dimensions: 1555mm × 740mm × 860mm (fixed with caster-mounted adjusters). *For more details, please visit the product's special website below.⬇︎

Usable on-site! HACARUS's "Small Quantity Quality Product Speed Learning" AI Visual Inspection Software

HACARUS Check AI software enables high-precision visual inspections using AI. Our uniquely developed "small quantity good product speed learning" AI does not require defective product data or a GPU. It excels in inspections that were difficult with traditional rule-based methods, such as for metal plates, rubber products, fabric materials, and leather materials, and can be used without any knowledge of AI. If you are struggling with visual inspections or have existing inspection equipment and are having trouble handling AI, please feel free to contact us. If you do not have an imaging device, we can provide suggestions. ■ Features - High precision results with a small amount of good product data: just a few dozen good product images are sufficient, with learning time of only a few minutes. - Understandable AI reasoning: the reasoning behind decisions can be explained, allowing for further application and development. - Fast and low power consumption: no GPU required, can be executed in your existing environment. <Software Pricing> First year: 3 million yen Subsequent years: 960,000 yen/year
