Maddox AI enables complete weld seam inspection on rainwater downpipes without having to rotate the component. This transforms the previously sample-based inspection into an efficient, automated process with high defect detection rates and significantly reduced personnel requirements.

Total savings / year
Our customer produces rainwater downpipes used for roof drainage in buildings.
Quality assurance was performed on a sample basis at defined time intervals by operators. A 100% inspection was not implemented, as such a process would have been too labor- and technology-intensive.
The goal was to fully automate this critical inspection process, particularly under the constraint that the pipes must not be moved or rotated. At the same time, personnel costs were to be reduced and defect rates minimized.
Sample-based visual inspection of weld seams by operators.
Fully automated 100% 360° inspection of weld seams.
The lack of a 100% inspection occasionally resulted in customer complaints with associated follow-up costs.
High personnel requirements and subjective evaluation.
