AI inspection and performance prediction for fan filter units

Shinsung E&G reported 90% fewer defects after AI inspection replaced visual checks

WorkingCompany's own claim

Problem

Small manufacturing errors in cleanroom fan filter units could affect semiconductor production. Workers previously checked bent components visually.

Approach

AI cameras inspected component angles and deformation at the Yongin factory. Vision sensors guided robotic bolt fastening. A separate AI performance-prediction program evaluated finished units using connected production data.

Results

90%reported reduction in defects after AI inspection replaced visual checksCompany's own claim[1]

20–30 minutesreported final evaluation time, previously about 5 hoursCompany's own claim[1]

Takeaway

Inspection results fed back into production conditions. The reported gains covered an integrated factory workflow.
