Panel Visual QA & FAT Defect Detection
Camera checks on assembled panels before factory acceptance testing catch wiring, terminal and labelling mistakes people miss.

The Challenge
Wiring and terminal defects are caught late at FAT, causing rework and re-test delays, and manual inspectors miss 20-30% of defects. Rework and scrap run ~2-3% of a ~$10.5M annual build.
How It Works
- Capture stations photograph panels and wiring at key build stages.
- Deep-learning detection checks routes and terminations against standard references.
- Returns pass/flag per panel with locations, an inspection record and defect trends.
What It Removes
- Tired-eye manual inspection
- Late FAT rework and re-test delays
- Unclosed recurring-defect loop
Input Data RequirementsPanel and wiring photographs, defect labels and FAT outcomes, standard wiring references
Output FormatPass/flag per panel with defect locations, draft inspection record, recurring-defect report to design
“A camera check on each panel before testing spots wiring and terminal mistakes people miss when they're tired.”
