Furniture · Panel & Assembly · Quality Control

Quality control that checks every panel against a reference before it ships.

A light-isolated edge station installed on the panel and assembly line compares every part with a learned perfect reference in real time. It catches surface scratches, stains, edge-band misalignment, and missing fasteners, then stops the line or alerts the operator.

Reference · Comparison

The perfect panel is taught, and every other panel is measured against it.

A reference panel meeting your acceptance criteria is introduced to the system first. That reference holds the surface texture, color tone, edge-band line, and hole pattern. Every panel on the line is compared against this profile; deviations are marked on an anomaly map and converted into a numeric confidence score. Surface quality moves out of personal judgement and onto a measurable criterion.

Core Capabilities

Designed for panel, board, and assembly lines.

Reference-based inspection

A perfect panel is learned and every deviation is measured against it.

Enclosed station

Light isolation provides stable, repeatable imaging.

Edge processing

On-device analysis preserves low latency and data privacy.

Edge-band inspection

Band continuity, overrun, and drift are tracked without gaps along the surface.

Presence – absence checks

Holes, grooves, and fasteners are verified before assembly.

Adjustable threshold

Sensitivity and acceptance limits are configured per product.

Color and pattern consistency

Tone difference, pattern direction, and texture deviation are compared across batches.

Visual evidence

The source image, heatmap, and confidence score are stored together.

Easy integration

Added to the line as an independent inspection station.

How It Works

From reference to action in four steps.

01

Teach the reference

The perfect panel's surface, color, and hole profile is saved with the product code.

02

Capture in-line

Every panel is imaged under controlled lighting inside the enclosure.

03

Compare & score

Deviations are mapped and converted into a confidence score.

04

Threshold & action

When the threshold is exceeded, the system alerts or stops and records the defect.

From the Field · Detections

Detections from the field

The examples below show anomaly heatmaps produced by the system.

Tear in upholstery fabric — loss of continuity in the weave.

ORIGINAL + HEATMAP

Tear in upholstery fabric — loss of continuity in the weave.

Hole in woven cane — local loss of texture on the surface.

ORIGINAL + HEATMAP

Hole in woven cane — local loss of texture on the surface.

Surface stain — local color deviation against the reference batch.

ORIGINAL + HEATMAP

Surface stain — local color deviation against the reference batch.

Detected Anomalies

Three families of deviation on a panel.

Surface, edge, and assembly integrity are all inspected in the same pass, against the same reference.

Surface defects

Scratches, dents, stains, coating blisters, and delamination; deviations that spoil the visible surface.

Edge and band defects

Edge-band overrun, drift, detachment, and loss of continuity at corner transitions.

Missing part / assembly error

Missing holes, grooves, dowels, and fasteners, plus incorrect positioning.

Action Outputs

The action you need at the moment of detection.

Alert only, alert plus stop, or full automation—the system is configured for your production scenario.

Line stop

Automatically stops the line through relay / PLC integration.

Audible alert

Immediately warns the operator with a siren or alarm.

Visual alert

Signals with a lamp or tower light.

Operator notification

Shows the alert and defect image on screen.

PLC / automation

Provides outputs compatible with existing automation.

Logging & reports

Time-stamps detections and includes them in periodic reports.

Line Integration

Add it to your panel line without redesigning production.

  • Independent station

    The enclosure is positioned directly above the conveyor.

  • Multiple product profiles

    Panels are saved by product code and recalled quickly.

  • Controlled lighting

    Stable images are captured independently of ambient light.

  • Automation-ready

    PLC and relay outputs connect to existing infrastructure.

Precision down to 6 µmProcessing edge / on-deviceCloud not requiredInspection 100%, not sampled

Any product that travels along a conveyor or extrusion line, or is checked in a fixed cell, can be inspected. Defects, presence–absence, dimension, angle, shape, fill level, and surface — in short, every deviation beyond the defined standard is detected.
