NEW TAIPEI CITY, Taiwan, May 29, 2023
/PRNewswire/ -- Aetina has launched an AI solution
specifically designed to enhance productivity in existing automated
optical inspection (AOI) systems in manufacturing. The solution
involves NVIDIA Metropolis for Factories and Aetina's
SuperEdge AI platforms, enabling users to reduce the workload
of reinspecting the false rejects. Aetina and its parent company
Innodisk are now collaborating with NVIDIA to deploy the
solution in Innodisk's factories for advanced electronics
manufacturing.
During Computex 2023, Aetina showcases the AI solution at booth
I0810, providing event visitors with a clearer understanding of its
functionality.
Aetina's AI Solution Based on NVIDIA Metropolis for
Factories
The AI solution is based on NVIDIA Metropolis for Factories,
which is a comprehensive collection of AI-powered workflows
designed to enhance AOI in factory settings. This technology
empowers industrial solution providers and manufacturers to
develop, deploy, and manage customized quality-control solutions,
resulting in cost savings and improved production throughput. The
solution incorporates AI software from the NVIDIA AI
Enterprise software suite, Siamese network-based AI models,
and Aetina's SuperEdge AI platforms powered by NVIDIA GPUs. It can
help prevent factory workers from wasting time on items incorrectly
identified as defective in printed circuit board assembly (PCBA)
lines using AOI systems for product quality control.
Although AOI is effective in reducing the risk of delivering
defective units, there is a chance of misclassifying flawless items
as imperfect. This can lead to unnecessary reevaluation during the
assembly process. When non-defective items are mistakenly
identified as defective, assembly line workers must spend
additional time inspecting these items again. In general, there is
approximately a 20% chance of units under inspection being
identified as defective by AOI. Among the units marked as defective
by AOI, some may actually be flawless.
Aetina's AI solution provides an efficient reinspection process
within production line AOI systems. Once implemented, it can
identify non-defective items among those that did not pass the
initial AOI inspection, significantly reducing the chance of
misclassification. After implementation, the chance of units under
inspection being marked as defective will be reduced to under 5%,
without increasing the risk of misidentifying defectives as
defect-free items. This enables assembly line workers to focus
their efforts more on fixing genuinely defective items.
Leveraging Innodisk's AI technology
Aetina developed the NVIDIA Metropolis-based solution by
leveraging the AI technologies of Innodisk. Innodisk is a global
AIoT solution provider specializing in the seamless integration of
hardware and software solutions. The company continues to empower
AI transformation across a wide range of industries through its
innovative Innodisk AI solution. This transformative solution is
delivered through an extensive network of Innodisk's group
companies and esteemed global partners. With the support of
Innodisk, Aetina is able to create cutting-edge solutions that
bring edge AI to various verticals, including the manufacturing
industry.
At the same time, Innodisk is committed to enhancing its factory
production processes by adopting next-generation industrial
solutions like NVIDIA Metropolis for Factories.
Aetina's SuperEdge AI Training Platforms
Aetina's SuperEdge is a series of x86 AI training platforms that
are configured with powerful NVIDIA GPUs. Currently, one model from
the SuperEdge family has been listed as a member of
NVIDIA-Certified Systems 3.0, enabling NVIDIA's AI software tools
to run at maximum performance. Aetina plans to launch more AI
training platform models that fully support NVIDIA's software
suite, helping developers quickly create various AI
applications.
