Surface Inspection – Embedded in AI-Ecosystem

The state-of-the art surface inspection solution Dr. Schenk Inspection System  is embedded into a unique AI-Ecosystem, in which all proprietary components are purpose-built to deliver seamless performance. From your first intuitive image labeling with the AI Workbench to the fully automated robust defect detection and classification.

AIMI (AI Material Inspection). The performance of artificial intelligence is only as good as the data it is based on. At Dr. Schenk, AI starts with what matters most: high-quality image data, generated by our proprietary MIDA technology.

Combined with high-speed AI data processing – directly in our cameras using FPGA technology – our systems can handle large data volumes in real time. They are 100 to 1000 times faster than conventional CPU/GPU solutions and do not rely solely on external computing power.

With AIMI, customers can use fully AI-based detection, analysis and classification or choose hybrid concepts that combine deep learning with proven machine vision methods, such as filtering, thresholding and classical tools for defect classification. This flexible approach uses as much intelligence as the quality goal requires: from fast, deterministic evaluation to advanced AI or the optimal combination of both.

The Dr. Schenk AI Ecosystem integrates Dr. Schenk inspection systems, with proprietary industrial computing hardware and software for real-time processing on the production floor, and the dedicated cloud or on-premise environment AI Workbench for data management, labelling, and AI model training.

The result is a scalable, end-to-end solution that turns highquality image data into reliable inspection decisions.

Powerful AI inspection starts before the algorithm. That's why we engineer everything in-house — cameras, illumination, and software — fully optimized as one system. Our MIDA technology (Multiple Image Defect Analysis) makes every defect visible.
Because if it can't be seen, it can't be detected. MIDA solves exactly that problem making every defect visible.
