AI-powered visual inspection on the production line

Industrial cameras combined with computer vision models, automatically detecting defects on the production line — working alongside human inspectors.

The problem

Physical inspection and monitoring still depend on people

$2.5B

lost to manufacturing defects in Vietnam each year. Estimated based on an average industry defect rate of 5%, in an export sector worth $50B/year.

In textiles, furniture, mechanical engineering, and packaging — many quality inspection steps still rely on the naked eye and worker experience. These are highly repetitive, high-volume tasks: ideal conditions for AI-powered visual inspection.

Speed is limited

Inspection easily becomes the bottleneck of the entire production line

Miss rate increases toward end of shift

When volume is high or workers lose focus

Inconsistent criteria

Varies between inspectors, shifts, and factories

No historical data

Cannot analyze defect trends to improve upstream with suppliers

Mozy's positioning on this problem

Both international and local team

International vision and connections, with deep local market knowledge

Deep understanding of Vietnam manufacturing

Years of working with manufacturing partners, familiar with on-line processes

Extensive industry network

Relationships with a network of manufacturers across the textile supply chain

A typical example: fabric defect inspection before cutting and laying in the textile industry — each roll must be visually inspected before entering the production line.

Solution

Four steps, from camera to defect trend analysis

Industrial cameras

Installed at inspection stations, reusing existing equipment when suitable

Vision model

Trained on the client's own data and QC criteria

Real-time alerts

Flag defects at the station, working alongside inspectors

Systematic storage

Analyze defect trends by batch, supplier, and shift

Key application — Incoming fabric inspection

Raw fabric after warehousing is inspected roll by roll before cutting/laying. The system detects surface defects during the inspection process. Three defect groups currently detected: stains, creases, and fabric flaws.
