Lincode: AI Inspection System for Manufacturing

Quality inspection system for manufacturing using computer vision and AI.
Detect defects, verify assemblies, and ensure data traceability.

Introducing LIVIS, the world’s most advanced AI inspection system for manufacturing

LIVIS (Lincode Intelligent Visual Inspection System) conducts real-time quality inspections using advanced AI to enhance the accuracy and capabilities of traditional machine vision. LIVIS also offers a simple, no-code platform where quality managers can train and deploy AI models for new parts, defects, and production lines.

SMARTER

Revolutionize traditional computer vision systems to:

Identify and classify more categories of defects
Reduce false calls and secondary inspections
Enable data traceability throughout factories and product lifecycles

FASTER

Pre-trained AI models specific to manufacturing industries:

Train new parts and defects with just 30-50 images (avg.)
Real-time analysis in less than 40ms (avg.)
Results on day 1 at 90% accuracy (avg.) that improves in just weeks

SIMPLER

No-code platform for factory workers:

Manage workstations and update inspection parameters
Auto-annotate defects to expedite new deployments
Integrate seamlessly with existing factory systems

Suite

Our flagship product, Lincode Intelligent Visual Inspection System (LIVIS), enables manufacturers to enhance the accuracy and capabilities of legacy machine vision systems. LIVIS leverages proprietary, pre-trained AI models to supercharge vision systems for improved speed, accuracy, and data traceability. Compatible with most camera systems, LIVIS supports both on-premise and cloud deployments, seamlessly integrating with existing factory environments. With LIVIS, quality managers can easily train and deploy AI models for new components and production lines using a simple, no-code platform.

Evolution of Visual Inspection

Traditional Machine Vision

Traditional Machine Vision systems generally have limited functionality, rely on controlled environments, and often produce high rates of false calls. These limitations are a function of "rule-based" systems, where any deviation from a control set may be marked defective. However, many manufacturing parameters permit certain variances or operate in dynamic environments, rendering traditional systems unreliable and causing bottlenecks in production and quality control.

Standard AI Platforms

Standard AI Platforms have overcome many limitations of rule-based systems but require extensive datasets to produce reliable results. The lack of available data covering the range of parts, defects, and production environments often leaves manufacturers in pilot purgatory. Resolving these issues often requires significant investment and machine downtime.

Is Different

LIVIS is a true deep learning platform, unbound by rule-based systems. LIVIS gets smarter over time and learns which variances are acceptable and which are not. LIVIS also comes with pre-trained models built on custom industry- and use case- specific datasets, enabling manufacturers to deploy significantly faster than with other AI platforms. As a result, LIVIS consistently outperforms traditional machine vision technology and other AI platforms in accuracy, latency, and speed.

Key Features and Benefits:

Unparalleled Accuracy

Increase the efficiency of traditional vision systems with LIVIS by improving reliability of inspection results and reducing false calls.

Expanded Capabilities

Supercharge legacy camera systems with LIVIS by expanding their native capabilities for quality inspection to include advanced defect detection, assembly verification, and label inspection.

Data Traceability

Capture images, inspection results, timestamps, and unique identifiers to comply with regulations and track data during production processes and beyond.

Hardware Agnostic

Connect LIVIS to existing cameras and factory control systems to improve quality inspection without expensive hardware upgrades or major process changes.

No-Code AI Platform

Train and deploy Lincode’s proprietary AI models for new parts, defects, and production lines using a simple, no-code interface.

Curated Datasets

Go live with new use cases in under a day by leveraging Lincode’s pre-trained AI models and industry-specific datasets for a wide range of manufacturing processes and materials.

Centralized Management

Manage workstations and data from production lines across the globe, whether deploying LIVIS on fixed camera stations, conveyers, robotic arms, or mobile devices.

Analytics & Reporting

Testimonials

As pioneers in visual quality inspection using AI, Lincode has helped us solve many challenges in BIW automation lines where traditional vision systems fail to support our applications. The Lincode team is highly flexible to our requirements and has extended their services beyond the initial specifications to help solve the problems on-site.

Rajsekhar Jaypal, AVP, Welding Systems

DiFACTO Robotics and Automation

Since we started using the Lincode inspection system, we’ve had a significant increase in productivity. The system can detect defects in the bolt no matter how the part is placed, along with missing pins. This has reduced our manual efforts and increased operator efficiency. We are very satisfied with the system and will certainly work with Lincode on other projects.
