Artificial Intelligence in-process defect detection for laser brazing: A Deep Learning Approach

How can process monitoring and quality assurance for laser joining be improved? 

To stay competitive, manufacturing facilities must continue to get smarter and more efficient. Artificial Intelligence technology is proving to be the key factor in driving optimum performance and improved quality in product manufacturing. Combined with high-speed Intelligent Laser Optics with real time integrated process monitoring, the Smart Factory is teaching itself. Accurate Data Driven Decisions can now be made by production equipment itself, minimizing human decision making, and thus improving process control.
