Our defect escape rate sat stubbornly at 2.3%, well above our Six Sigma target, and inspector turnover made consistency impossible. Sound familiar? If you're reading this, you're probably facing similar challenges in your quality assurance operation. This tutorial walks through implementing AI-Driven Visual Inspection based on our actual deployment at a medium-volume assembly line. I'll share the practical steps, including the mistakes we made so you can avoid them. This isn't theory—it's what actually worked on a production floor running three shifts with real OEE pressure. Step 1: Select Your Pilot Process Don't try to automate everything at once.…
