EZ Automation to Showcase AI-Powered Inspection System at ISA Automation Summit & Expo

EZ Automation Systems, a provider of advanced automation, will demonstrate a new inline configuration of its PIQuE automated surface inspection system at Booth 310 during the ISA Automation Summit & Expo, October 5 to 7 in Lake Buena Vista, FL.  

EZ Automation initially introduced PIQuE as a robotically enabled 360-degree vision system that uses 3D laser triangulation and deep learning models to identify surface defects, including scratches, dents, missing components and barcode errors. The live demo at the ISA Summit introduces a new design that forgoes the 360-degree robotic manipulation component, instead deploying PIQuE's surface inspection capabilities as a new inline configuration. 

"The new configuration underscores the platform's ability to accommodate various production environments and quality control requirements," a company spokesperson said. "It allows seamless integration with production lines for fast, accurate inline inspection. But the inline system retains PIQuE’s use of 3D laser triangulation and AI-driven inspection capabilities." 

Powered by EZ Automation’s EZ Eye vision processing framework, PIQuE is able to leverage pretrained AI models for rapid deployment and intelligent automated inspection routines without extensive setup requirements. PIQuE’s adaptive learning functionality automatically adjusts to surface variations and product inconsistencies over time to constantly improve inspection accuracy. This continuous refinement based on historical data further reduces false rejections and helps manufacturers maintain consistent quality standards.

“PIQuE represents our commitment to delivering advanced turnkey quality control solutions tailored to address real-world manufacturing challenges,” said Ahmed Tawfik, CEO at EZ Automation. “The system’s ability to deliver highly accurate, comprehensive surface inspection in configurations demonstrates the flexibility that manufacturers need in today’s dynamic production environments.”

PIQuE operates as a plug-and-play solution, leveraging cloud-based analytics and remote monitoring capabilities, the company reported. EZ Automation backs its platform with one year of remote support.

PIQuE’s surface inspection capabilities serve diverse manufacturing sectors, with applications ranging from electronics and semiconductor manufacturing to the production of medical devices and aerospace components. The system identifies soldering defects, PCB damage and component misalignment in electronics manufacturing, and it excels at inspecting machined metal parts, where surface quality and precision tolerances are often mission critical. The platform’s ability to detect minute surface variations makes it suitable for applications with stringent quality standards across automotive, consumer goods and other manufacturing sectors.

The PIQuE system incorporates several features designed to optimize quality control operations. Its customizable inspection criteria can be supported by AI-suggested quality metrics based on specific industry requirements, while automated inspection recipe generation minimizes downtime during changeovers. The platform’s seamless integration capabilities enable deployment into existing workflows without significant modifications.

The inline configuration on display at the ISA Automation Summit & Expo will provide attendees with hands-on experience with PIQuE’s surface inspection technology.
