Integrating Workflow Canvas™ with DaoAl's AOl System

 Feb, 2025. Vancouver

Revolutionizing Industrial Automation 

In the era of Industry 4.0, manufacturers are continuously seeking innovative solutions to enhance efficiency, minimize defects, and optimize production workflows. By integrating Workflow Canvas™ with DaoAI’s high-precision Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) system, manufacturers can unlock unprecedented levels of automation and intelligence in their production lines. 

 

Seamless Automation with Workflow Canvas™ 

Siemens’ Workflow Canvas™ provides an intuitive graphical workflow design platform, enabling users to drag and drop modular components to create seamless workflows—from inspection to defect resolution.

The process works as follows: 
  1. PLC Initiates Inspection: The PLC system sends an inspection request to Workflow Canvas™, which then orchestrates the workflow.
  2. AOI System Execution: Workflow Canvas™ forwards the request to DaoAI’s AOI system, which performs high-precision inspections.
  3. Inspection Analysis: The AOI system captures images, analyzes the data, and detects anomalies such as assembly misalignment or defects.
  4. Decision Making: Based on the results, the system determines whether the product is OK or NG (No Good).
  5. Automated Action & Feedback: The results are relayed to Workflow Canvas™, which then sends corrective actions to PLC or other connected equipment to execute necessary adjustments, completing the automation loop. 

 

Case Study: Fully Automated Laptop Inspection

Leveraging DaoAI’s high-speed, high-accuracy AOI system, one of our clients successfully built a fully automated laptop inspection system within just one month. This system performs comprehensive defect detection, but not limited to the following: 
  • Screw height discrepancies
  • Connector alignment precision 

Once the AOI system completes its inspection, Workflow Canvas™ aggregates the results and automatically triggers corrective actions. For instance, robotic arms are instructed to make real-time adjustments, ensuring a fully automated quality control workflow. 

 

AI-Powered DaoAI AOI System 

Designed for industrial automation, DaoAI’s AI-driven AOI System revolutionizes defect detection with: 

  • Ultra-fast detection – Each region is inspected in just 10 milliseconds, leveraging advanced image optimization algorithms to detect microscopic details as small as 4x4 pixels.
  • Unmatched accuracy – Initial models achieve up to 99.7% precision, with defect miss rates and false positives both below 1%.
  • All Positive Data Training – The AI model requires as few as 1-20 images to learn and can be rapidly deployed in real-world environments.
  • Self-learning feedback loop – Mimicking human learning, the system continuously improves by integrating operator feedback into the training process.
  • Real-time inference – AI-powered defect detection occurs instantly, ensuring seamless integration with production lines.
  • Broad compatibility – Supports PLCs, mainstream industrial control systems, and GigE/USB3 industrial cameras for flexible deployment.
