Case Studies
U.S. Automotive Manufacturer – In-Line Surface Crack Detection
A leading U.S. car parts manufacturer partnered with Optical Visual Tech to install highspeed machine vision systems for in-line surface inspection. By integrating GAO Tek’s inspection cameras and real-time defect classification software, the client reduced inspection time by 40% and improved defect detection accuracy by 95%. The scalable setup allowed quick deployment across multiple lines.
U.S. Aerospace Supplier – Composite Panel Inspection
An aerospace components supplier needed high-precision surface inspection for composite aircraft panels. We deployed a dual-camera machine vision system with pattern recognition and multi-angle lighting. The system successfully automated defect detection and reported critical dimensional shifts. Post-deployment, the client saw a 30% improvement in QA efficiency and faster regulatory reporting.
Canadian Electronics Assembly – Solder Joint Analysis
A Canadian electronics firm integrated Optical Visual Tech’s AI-driven vision systems to inspect solder joints on densely packed PCBs. Leveraging GAO RFID’s machine vision software, the solution enabled defect grading, statistical heat mapping, and real-time alerts. This implementation helped reduce post-production rework rates by over 60%.
