Fraunhofer's Xeidana Revolutionizes Inline Quality Control
Fraunhofer Institute has developed Xeidana, a groundbreaking system setting new standards in inline quality control for smart manufacturing. This innovative solution supports proactive quality management, minimising rework and scrap, and reinforcing product integrity.
Xeidana integrates seamlessly into existing production environments, accommodating various applications and materials. It provides smart visual guidance and confirmation for assembly tasks using augmented reality (AR) projection and vision-based analytics. High-resolution cameras and machine vision algorithms enable 100% inspection, keeping pace with high-speed production lines.
The system excels at real-time surface defect detection, capturing fine details such as scratches, dents, or inconsistencies in paint or coating. By inspecting every part directly on the production line without interrupting cycle time, Xeidana supports zero-defect manufacturing. Its compact hardware footprint and modular design facilitate inline installation, reducing costs and increasing throughput.
Xeidana, developed by Fraunhofer Institute, offers a comprehensive solution for inline quality control in Industry 4.0. By combining high-resolution cameras, machine vision algorithms, AR projection, and real-time defect detection, it minimises waste, enhances product integrity, and supports zero-defect manufacturing. Its seamless integration and compact design make it an attractive choice for modern production environments.
