Application
Spark makes it possible to eject 100% of major and critical defects on shiny perfume caps
100%
major and critical defects detected and rejected
100%
of production automatically inspected at line speed
Client presentation
Industrial manufacturer of aluminum packaging components for premium perfumery and cosmetics.
Its site, located in central France, produces shiny caps and decorative parts resulting from demanding surface treatment processes, such as anodizing.
Quality at the center of concerns.
Quality control relied on manual visual inspection by sampling.
On bright anodized surfaces, some defects — micro-scratches, particles, pits — remain difficult to detect. Their identification depends heavily on lighting, the operator, and inspection conditions.
In a premium context, the risk of undetected defects and customer complaints is high.
The client's objectives
Automate quality inspection for 100% of production
Eject 100% of major and critical defects
Make inspection images and data available for traceability
Reduce the scrap rate through root cause analysis
Enable full automation of packaging at the control output
The solution: Spark Multi View
Scortex has deployed Spark Multi View, designed to detect defects with AI on reflective surfaces directly at production speed.
4 cameras inspecting the hood from several angles simultaneously
Industrial lighting (diffusion box) revealing micro-scratches and appearance defects
Vision architecture optimized for shiny parts and reflective surfaces
Solution connected to the part ejection system
Deployment support by a dedicated Customer Success team
The Results
100% of production automatically inspected at line speed
100% of major and critical defects rejected
100% automated packaging
Halving of the scrap rate through root cause analysis
Full traceability of parts via inspection images and data
Highlighting process drifts previously invisible with sampling
“Visual inspection on shiny anodized parts is too dependent on lighting, the operator, and the time of day.
Automation with Spark and its AI has given us a stable benchmark for the first time.”
