✦ AI Summary
Deply said on the 16th that it will supply 'Listen AI' to an automotive fastening robot process.
Listen AI is an AI inspection solution based on acoustic analysis and was applied to connector fastening result inspection.
After application, process cycle time decreased and fastening accuracy improved, achieving 99.9% inspection accuracy.
Deply announced on the 16th that it will supply 'Listen AI' to an automotive fastening robot process. The purpose of the supply is to improve the robot's connector fastening inspection accuracy.
'Listen AI' is an AI inspection solution based on acoustic analysis. The solution can inspect the quality of drive components such as motors, gears, and bearings in real time on industrial mass-production lines, measure the fastening sounds of connectors and bolts, and check the health of manufacturing facilities, equipment, and robots. Its application area is predictive maintenance.
The latest deployment targets the automotive trim process. The implementation covers inspection of the robot's connector fastening results. It can continuously measure the first fastening and second fastening in a high-precision assembly process, as well as complex fastening that secures multiple parts to each cell.
As a result, process cycle time has been reduced and fastening accuracy has improved. That has led to an inspection accuracy of 99.9%.
Listen AI has been introduced on the connector fastening line in the automotive trim process, and the target process is assembly of body parts and interior and exterior components. Work is now under way to raise defect-sound detection accuracy to the target level, with the target true defect detection rate set at 99.9% and the target false defect detection rate at 99% or higher. False defects fall into a range that is difficult for the human ear to hear, and Deply plans to reach the target accuracy within 2 to 3 months.
Deply said that once this accuracy is secured, its plan to apply the system to mass-production lines will be 100%. It also said that introducing Listen AI makes 24-hour non-stop operation possible in fastening robot processes, and enables one-stop automation from fastening execution to inspection in OEM fastening processes. In addition, it said the automated target processes are simple repetitive tasks that require substantial labor, and that one-stop automation can significantly reduce process operating costs.
Deply is continuously advancing the solution so it can also be applied to a range of robot processes beyond connector fastening, including connector separation inspection. As a result, the scope of application is expanding beyond connector fastening to other robot processes.
CEO Lee Su-ji of Deply said existing clients have a 100% reintroduction rate for the Listen AI solution, citing fastening inspection and line additions and expansions as reasons for reintroduction, in addition to drive component inspection. She explained that Listen AI automates process operations, sharply reduces operating costs, and provides high inspection accuracy, thereby reducing various risks on manufacturing sites. She added that she expects uses for Listen AI to diversify as the expansion of unmanned facilities continues.
