Automated Kimchi Foreign Object Sorting: AI Detects, Robots Remove
Solution
A smart factory solution that automates the foreign object sorting process in kimchi production lines by combining AI Vision-based real-time foreign object detection with robot-linked automatic removal systemsBefore vs After
-
Lack of detection consistency due to visual inspection methods
-
Difficulty detecting fine foreign objects and similarly colored contaminants
-
Quality variations due to differences in worker proficiency
-
Difficulty tracking when claims arise
-
Real-time precision detection based on multi-lighting + AI Vision
-
Capable of detecting fine and similarly colored foreign objects
-
Ensures inspection consistency through automated standards
-
Traceability through automatic saving of captured images and detection results
