Reliable quality control for safety-critical production processes
Precision, reliability and process safety are crucial in the defense industry. Components such as ammunition and their detonators must be manufactured and tested under controlled conditions, as even small deviations can impair their function.
The aku.visionManagerยฎ enables automated quality control directly within the process. Critical features are inspected in real time, defects are detected early, and defective parts are specifically rejected. This eliminates the need for manual inspection and ensures stable processes.
Continuous inspection is particularly important in ammunition production. Features such as primers, painting, riveting or labeling are reliably evaluated and checked. In combination with AI, even complex defect patterns can be reliably detected.
Application possibilities in overview:
- Cartridge testing in ammunition production: Inspection of primer, riveting and lacquer to ensure function and tightness
- Quality control of ammunition: Detection of manufacturing defects and deviations in safety-critical components
- Writing and marking check: Verification of manufacturer information, year of manufacture and NATO codes for unique identification
- Surface inspection of metal components: Detection of scratches, dents, cracks and contamination on sleeves and components
- Testing of safety-critical assemblies: Checking igniters and mechanical components for correct design and assembly
- Completeness and position check: Ensuring that all components are correctly present and correctly positioned
- Traceability in the defense industry: Code reading and component assignment for seamless documentation
- AI-supported image processing: Detection of complex defect images with varying products and surfaces
