Customer Request

Customer Request

Our customer produces windshield wipers in a 3-shift operation. Quality control was carried out manually & randomly by 1 employee per shift. With the introduction of Maddox AI, the inspection was fully automated. Defective components are now reliably detected and ejected automatically without the need for employees to carry out the inspection.

Previous Inspection System

Previous Inspection System

Previous Inspection System

Quality control was carried out manually by 1 employee per shift, which was time-consuming and costly.

As the test results were not recorded digitally, there was no structured root cause analysis for faulty (NOK) parts.

On average, the plant received 3-4 customer complaints per year, which led to re-sorting actions and quality measures.
