<\/span><\/h2>\nAs the largest external component of a <\/span>smartphone<\/span>, the <\/span>smartphone<\/span> shell<\/span> not only affects the phone\u2019s appearance and personalization but also plays a crucial role in its protection, durability, and user experience. Therefore, appearance inspection is a critical step in <\/span>smartphone<\/span> manufacturing.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Currently, <\/span>smartphone<\/span> shell inspection faces several key challenges:<\/span><\/p>\n\nComplex and Varied Defects<\/span><\/b>: Due to the structural uniqueness, various complex defects are often generated during the manufacturing process. These defects are diverse in type and characteristic<\/span>s<\/span>, making the inspection process highly challenging.<\/span><\/li>\nPoor Imaging<\/span><\/b>: Due to the materials used, <\/span>smartphone<\/span> shells tend to reflect light and cause glare, making imaging unclear. Manufacturers require high precision and efficiency in appearance inspection to ensure production efficiency. The challenge lies in accurately and quickly identifying defects and providing timely feedback and resolution.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\nAfter multiple rounds of technical communication and comparative evaluation, LEAD\u2019s solution, characterized by clear logic, advanced technology, <\/span>and <\/span>strict standards, was highly recognized by the client. LEAD was chosen as the supplier of appearance inspection equipment for <\/span>smartphone<\/span> frame and shell of the two high-end models.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/span>Self-developed Inspection Platform and AI Algorithms Significantly Improve Inspection Efficiency<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/h2>\nThis project is LEAD\u2019s significant AI-based flaw detection mass production project for 3C consumer electronics, combining traditional equipment advantages with LEAD\u2019s self-developed algorithm expertise. The aim is to comprehensively verify and streamline processes, creating a high-end intelligent inspection platform to ensure full inspection <\/span>before<\/span> delivery<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\nEstablishing a Project Collaboration Mechanism<\/strong><\/p>\nAfter extensive preliminary communication and technical evaluations, LEAD\u2019s team set up a targeted research and development coordination mechanism, quickly analyzing, diagnosing, and <\/span>troubleshooting<\/span> problems to enhance response speed and efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\nTechnological Innovations of the Inspection Platform<\/strong><\/p>\nTo address the complexity of <\/span>smartphone<\/span> shell structures, LEAD utilizes its patented inspection technology to automatically flip the <\/span>objects by multiple angles and quickly image the products<\/span>, enabling surface inspection of multi-layer products <\/span>by<\/span> directly measuring the <\/span>smartphone<\/span> shell\u2019s morphological features.<\/span><\/p>\nHigh-Precision Image Capture and AI Algorithms<\/strong><\/p>\nThe high-precision, non-contact image capture technology enables real-time flaw identification, improving inspection efficiency and accuracy. Through LEAD\u2019s self-developed 3D vision platform, feature <\/span>identification<\/span> is automatically performed<\/span>. A<\/span>nd with the integration of AI algorithms, the platform\u2019s model training is reinforced, enabling the recognition and inspection of defects in various materials and <\/span>curved<\/span> surfaces.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
With the support of equipment capabilities and 3D platform technology, this project successfully achieved the one-time acquisition of 140 detection data points, improving <\/span>machine<\/span> efficiency to 6 seconds per piece<\/span> \u2014<\/span> more than ten times faster than traditional inspection methods<\/span> and <\/span>cutting labor costs by more than half. Furthermore, the AI platform\u2019s defect sample calibration and analysis significantly boosted model training efficiency and detection capabilities. Enhanced post-processing algorithms and anomaly detection models accelerated model iterations and real-time upgrades of NG (No Good) <\/span>assessment<\/span> standards, adjusting tolerance ranges accordingly.<\/span><\/p>\nThe final result of this <\/span>intelligent a<\/span>ppearance inspection solution achieved a defect miss rate of 0.5% and an overkill rate of 15%, significantly outperforming the industry average. The client highly recognized LEAD\u2019s overall solution and expressed appreciation for the project\u2019s success: \u201cThe LEAD team demonstrated strong technical expertise and exceptional project management capabilities. Their ability to quickly solve problems was particularly impressive. The team\u2019s unwavering commitment and readiness to tackle challenges reflected LEAD\u2019s service philosophy of \u2018timely response and customer-first approach.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\nThe manufacturing industry is undergoing a digital transformation driven by big data and cloud computing, as well as the development of industrial Internet technologies. Various sectors are actively seeking rapid and stable digital upgrades suited to their specific needs. AI technologies and digital management capabilities are independent of hardware manufacturing but are deeply rooted in a profound understanding of production equipment. LEAD integrates advanced technologies such as IoT, big data, AI, and edge computing to create an intelligent manufacturing system. This system, built from the client\u2019s perspective, enhances operational efficiency, reduces costs, and helps enterprises transform into digital and smart factories by adopting standardized, efficient, and intelligent production methods.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The appearance of smartphone directly impacts consumer purchase decisions and product reputation.
