WorkingCompany's own claimOfficial ↗

Problem

Extraction failures during aluminum outer-can forming damaged dies and repeatedly stopped production. The failures also created safety risks.

Approach

Shinheung Machinery worked with Codevision to introduce vision AI for its electric-vehicle component presses. The system analyzed press video and IoT sensor data in real time. When it detected an extraction problem, it raised an alarm and stopped the equipment.

Results

65%reduction in process defect rate reported by Shinheung MachineryCompany's own claim[1]
10%increase in hourly output reported by Shinheung MachineryCompany's own claim[1]
49%reduction in equipment repair time reported by Shinheung MachineryCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

The system connected defect detection directly to a machine stop. The reported improvements came from the manufacturer's own operating data.
